Harvest Park=HARVEST HOAX

Joe T
Posted Aug 3 2008, 10:57

I bought a home in a new development in Mapleton called Harvest Park. There web address is HarvestPark.net. My town home is yet to be finished and I closed seven months ago in July of 2006. The builder, Brandon Dubois of Dubois Construction promised to complete it at least 12 times and he has not. I have several items missing. A missing medicine cabinet, an unpainted ceiling, broken jets on a tub, etc. I am not the only one, check with the other residents in Harvest Park. They have many more complaints than I do. Every person has a problem--ask the Bishop of Mapleton 4th ward. The people in charge of the development are clueless. Everything is moving so slowly. I am so pissed that I put my home up for sale. It is a risk to bash my investment, but gullible Utah investors will still put out money for this award winning Harvest Park. But verily I say unto you, it should be named HARVEST HOAX!!!!!!!!!!! And they should win an award for stupidity and bad business sense. Contact me if you want any information and I will give you the truth...

Why in the world sis you close on a property that was not done? Did you have representation by an agent or did you use the sellers representive who owes loyalty only to builder? I would never do a closing on an unfinished property there can be to many problems and you lose the power to get them taken care of as you are experiencing.

I am sorry, you are right. I have heard to never close unless it is finished, but they were five months behind schedule, and I was staying with a friend and I had to tell him, it will be done next week, and that went on for three months, I just wanted to get in. The builder says he has no excuses and that I am right but he will get it done...How can you argue with somebody who says they are wrong---he just says he is too busy. THanks for your reply.

He is to busy because he already has your money. Did you do a punch list repair sheet before closing with him and do you have a copy?
