DO NOT BUY FROM RYAN HOMES

Update by user Aug 07, 2013

Millsboro DE

Original review posted by user Aug 07, 2013

Cheap materials, unsupervised construction, mistake cover ups, *** service, terrible sub contractors...And that was all in the first 10 months. I do not feel safe in this home. Its all about getting as many homes built as fast as you can at Ryan Homes.. NO matter the consequences. Ryan prays that they get past their "1 year" warranty. The service supervisors are only trained to give "corporate answers" and try to put a bandaid over issues in hopes of getting past their 1 year. I should have paid more attention to the negative reviews. I will never purchase from Ryan nor will I ever recommend.

Ryan Homes in Mitchellville, Maryland - Poor quality of work inside and out... Never will I purchase from them again

I currently live in Hall Station in Bowie (Mitchelvill MD). I've been in my house for under 2 years and here is a list of items that fail.. Steps creek (spelling) when I walk on them and I feel like i'll fall in. Walls still show where they didn't smooth out the edges Corking is HORRIBLE Appliances are failing (Stove, Fridge, Microwave, Dishwasher) Hard wood floors aren't tight (See cracks between each plank) Grass in backyard is non existent and they say it's because my deck is up its not getting sun If Ryan was the last builder I would not purchase and live on the street. If you do decide to purchase a home from Ryan, YOU BETTER VIDEO TAPE EVERYTHING that's being done on your house... I recently got an inspector to come out to the house and he said he couldn't come out and do it in his regular 4 hours because he ALWAYS has issues with RYAN homes (TERRIBLE)... Make sure you get an inspector BEFORE you move in or you will be sorry. I will be selling this *** soon.

Ryan homes suck.

Poor craftsmenship. Poor quality inside and out. Trim work sucks. I had to replace the windows when the house was only 7 years old. Now. I'm worried about the roof. The siding buckles in the heat. I would never recommend buying one of these homes. Plus way over priced ... I'm sure I missed some of the other *** work they did. I live in SPRING VALLEY DEVELOPMENT. 62 VANCE AVE. ID BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHOW YOU HOW BAD THEY BUILD A HOUSE. The air conditioer is to small for the house. I'm waiting for that to go and the heater already broke all within 10 years. Sorry *** builders.

Ryan Homes - Don't trust what the sales manager tells to you

they will not hold true to what they offer. I was told to get $2000 credit for closing cost of which I did not. Later, they told me that they want to give me $2000 credit upgrade, which we all know is a rip off. To them, $2000 worth of upgrade is a cheap GE stackable laundry center and four ceiling fixtures. And when I asked for more, they told me that they really don't have to do anything but is offering me GE stackable laundry center and four ceiling fixtures as a "good deed." How ironic. It's not a good deed. It's doing minimum to have my mouth shut.

At only 7 years old the roof needs replaced, the foundation is settling and pulling away from the rest of the house, the furnace and A/C were just replaced, the cement porch had to be repoured and is spalding again "Thanks Tony!", the putty in the exterior wood trim is...

Ryan Homes in San Antonio, Texas - The water valves in my house are leaking

Came home to find that the valve in my master bathroom had leaked all into the cabinet and on the floor. Called the emergency service that was given to by ryland. I called and no one could help. The next day I had checked all 3 bathrooms, come to find out they are all starting to leak and damage the cabinets but they were slow leaks. I have bought the new and only have been living in it for two and half years. Finally got in touch with the plumbing company and they said my warranty is only good for 2 years and that I would have to take it up with ryland. After along time to bing it to someone's attention I finally had to drive to the office to make a complaint. They finally sent someone out to look at the problem. They sent the plumber to see and the plumber told ryland that their are no leaks so ryland said they are going to stand behind the plumber and not fix the problem. So now I'm stuck with leaking valves and have to pay for my own plumber to fix the issues that they have caused. To sum it all up their customer service was horrible to deal with and do not feel comfortable about my purchase I would never buy a ryland house again or recommend it to any body else

I purchased a Ryan Home in Beavercreek 15 years ago. I can vouch for the fact the they intentionally mislead and lie to you.

We have spent thousands of dollars over the past 15 years replacing and repairing the shoddy work that was done in our home.

Ryan Homes in Fort Belvoir, Virginia - Worst Homebuilders EVER!!!!!!

This is the mostn unprofessional company I have ever dealt with. Our home was supposed to be completed in March, but we are on April 16, 2013 now. They have moved our settlement back 3-4 times as well. A person from Ryan homes called us last week and said that we were able to settle earlier. Then another person called and said that we might not because they haven't received the FHA approval. We are supposed to settle on Friday, which today is Tuesday, and we can't settle until the FHA approval is in. I called HUD yesterday and they said that it takes a minimum of 30 days to approved FHA. Now how in the world can we settle on Friday if they didn't send out the approval to the government until last week. I am so upset right now. I am warning everyone, this whole house buying process has been a disaster. Home buying is supposed to be fun but I am totally done with everything about it.

This would happen with ANY builder! The loan process is rought because of the financial collapse a few years back.

It's not their fault that you can't get your approval, FHA has strict requirements, I went through the same thing guy a 50 year old house a few years ago... I think you are just being a *** about it...

big deal you are a few weeks behind, custom homes builders can take up to a YEAR or MORE to complete... so stop your whining you little ***

@looking for blame

How long have you worked for Ryan Homes? You are rude and a coward!

Identify yourself and let us see who you really are? And stop posting, you serve no purpose to those who have been cheated and the company can stand on its shoddy work without you insulting folks on Ryan Homes behalf!

Sounds mostly like a misunderstanding. NO ONE at Ryan Homes is obligated or should be expected to do what they say.

NVR isn't bothered in the least by these sort of complaints.

I'm sure they and the Ryan Homes staff are "LMAO" in comments to one another when reading this. Just hope the typical repairs to your new Ryan homes home go a little smoother once you actually close.

Please note the Ryan Homes listed above is not Ryan Homes, LLC. We do custom build homes - no developments and we do not put any roads in.

While we are located in Overland Park, KS - all of the jobs we had around this date was performed in brand new subdivisions with no existing homes at that time. Thank you.
