Where do I begin. First of all I am thanking GOD that this whole thing fell through for me after 8 months of waiting when I read the other reviews. I have supressed most of what happened, mainly because I need to move on. However, I will say this: Altieri will say or DO anything to get you to sign. I was pressured to sign the contract after I specifically said I needed time to think about it. I was made to feel like a loser, but I still pushed for more time. Finally after 2 weeks and some promises from Altieri's lackey, I signed. After 12 closing dates (and yes I took the day off from work for each) I finally said forget it. I had been packed for 3 months living in a tiny apartment waiting to move to my dream home. I needed to buy a home and it was obvious to me that I was never going to get the one I had signed on 7 months prior. I do not know how the LENDER figured out or knew I had been looking for another house (I think she was lucky at the guess) but when this happened they skewed my NEW good faith estimate. She told me now my payment would be $2400 instead of $1700 (for a 3 bedroom townhouse, really?) . ANyway, long story short, I found out they had offered me something illegal and the minute they found out I knew it was not legal they promised me back my deposit because suddenly THAT day they had found a buyer. However it took MANY threats to get that deposit back. Good luck to those of you who have yet to get a home or your deposit, but I would say getting out of that (even if I were to lose my deposit) would have been WORTH IT. I thank God every day. God Bless you all who are suffering at the incompetency and irresponsibility of this company.
Pros: They have a very PRETTY model home, but after you sign you find out what you get is different.
Cons: See above. Also, the mental stress of having to deal with these people. They don't care about you.
