Adams Homes Reviews

I am SO disappointed in my home. The builder has not fixed any of the issues with the home. Where do I begin. The driveway is cracked and crumbling causing a pothole and tipping hazard. NOT covered. The smoke detector goes off every time you cook because there is NO ventilation in the kitchen. There is a microwave vent which sucks the air from the stove into the bottom of the microwave, then sends it out the top of the microwave to the ceiling causing the smoke detector to go off each time I cook! Peeling fiberglass on the tubs, causing injury. The connection from the dishwasher was incorrectly installed, and called out by the inspector. It was not repaired as stated prior to my moving in. The dishwasher leaked 11 times in the first week causing the "luxury vinal flooring" to get soaked and it is now lifting. AGAIN not covered!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel it's important to share my experience. I've owned my home for five years, and the problems started within the first year. I had plumbing, electrical, and HVAC issues almost immediately. The builder came out multiple times, but the repairs were never done correctly. Instead of fixing the root cause, it felt like they simply patched the problems long enough for the one-year warranty to expire. As soon as the warranty was over, I was told the issues were no longer their responsibility—even though they had several opportunities to fix them properly while the home was under warranty. The problems didn't stop there. I also had uneven doors and bathroom fixtures that were installed incorrectly, which only added to my frustration with the overall quality of the workmanship.

I have owned my home for five years, and unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing from the very beginning. Within the first year, I had multiple plumbing, electrical, and HVAC issues. Despite several service calls, the problems were never properly repaired. Instead of fixing the root cause, it felt like they were temporarily patched just long enough for the one-year warranty to expire. Once the warranty ended, I was told the issues were no longer their responsibility—even though they were never correctly resolved in the first place.

We recently purchased an Adams home in the Aviary in Parrish FL. Pre purchase everyone was extremely accommodating. Saying all the right things to get us to sign the contract. Post purchase has been a completely different experience and very disappointing to say the least. Example: Last week our air conditioning stopped working. We were provided list of phone numbers of vendors to call in case of a problem. Under A/C problems, Del Air Conditioning was listed. We called and a technician came out and said the line needed flushed. He proceeded to fix the problem and charge us $396 (we learned later it should not have been more than $175). He told us the line flush should be done twice a year.

Adams Homes was great during the building process, and we were excited to move into our new home. Unfortunately, our experience after closing has been very different. About six months after moving in, we began experiencing significant issues with our HVAC system. We reported the problem and were repeatedly given temporary fixes, but the underlying issue was never resolved. Now, going into our second summer in the home, we are dealing with the same problems all over again.

If this builder wants to stay competitive with giants like D.R. Horton or Lennar, their customer service and sales operations desperately need a revamp. The sales representation here is highly inconsistent. On one hand, you have the seasoned reps who have been around a while, but they routinely leave the office covered by people on weekends who have absolutely no idea what's going on. On the other hand, the newer reps are left completely in the dark with little to no support or training. In real estate, time kills deals. There is an absolute lack of urgency across the board here. If they expect to compete in this market, they need to fix their communication, properly support their new staff, and establish a reliable weekend presence.

Very poor quality and workmanship!! I'm in Auburndale, FL and had over 20+ warranty issues with this home after we moved in 2024. The gal we worked with in warranty was very nice and understanding. She did go above and beyond and made sure that every warranty issued was taken care of. We haven't even lived here 2 years yet and are noticing cracking in some of the walls and in the floor tiles. Think twice about buying an Adams Home if you're looking for a good quality home. The contractors don't care when they're throwing up these fast built homes. We feel a lot of them are inexperienced, especially, since the pandemic. The good builders all seemed to leave during that time!!

I would never recommend an Adam's home. Everything is cheap quality. The cabinets are not wood. The floors are the lowest quality linoleum as well as cheap quality formidable counter tops. Poor quality light fixtures. The shelf in my closet fell off the wall. All my clothes are on the floor. We've changed light fixtures for better quality. We've changed out appliances for better quality. Need I say more! Very disappointed and we paid top dollar. No garage door opener or gutters. We added all the extras. Steer clear!!!

My experience after purchasing a home has been disappointing. While the signing process went smoothly and the home itself initially seemed fine, the quality of the appliances and post-purchase support has been frustrating. Within the first year, several appliances either failed or never worked properly from the start. This is especially concerning given that these issues arose so early in ownership. Additionally, the warranty structure has not been helpful—when problems occur, the responsibility often falls back on the homeowner, despite these being early-life defects.

Overall, I believe Adams Homes builds a quality home, but my home-buying experience was disappointing. There is definitely a need for better quality control during the construction process, as some of the workmanship—especially from contractors like painters—did not meet expectations. Sandra was professional and always made the effort to find information when requested, which I appreciated. With stronger oversight and more consistent contractor quality, the experience could be much better for future buyers.

Absolutely terrible experience. My wife and I travelled to Pace FL from TN to meet with Debra Holifield at the Parkland Place model home. We were excited about the whole experience (picked a lot, chose our colors, etc.) and spent days calling lenders to get pre approval letters while drafting up a diagrams for extra lights/outlets/concrete etc. The day after sending them what I thought was our final step before signing a contract, I received a call from Debra informing me they were returning my $1000 earnest deposit check and stated “we aren’t the builder for you.” Can you believe it! (I couldn’t). Please, take my money for the options I’d like! And if it’s not too much trouble, try to put them where I’d like! No, sir, they’re more concerned with throwing these houses up as quickly as possible, the way THEY want (your preferences apparently don’t concern them too much).

My wife and I purchased our phone back on December 29th, we could be more happy with our decision. Abby Glenn is a fantastic neighborhood that Adams Homes builds in, we love the home and could not ask for a better experience, we worked with Stefani ** who did an outstanding job for us, she's very professional, down to earth, and a decent human being. We love working with her. It was very fast and easy for the whole process, from getting financing to actual move in. Again, if you are looking for a home to purchase in a nice location in Dade City Abby Glen is the place to buy. Many thanks Stefani for helping us make the correct decision.

Please reconsider purchasing a home built by Adams Homes, or at the very least, make sure you obtain your own independent appraisal from an appraiser who has no affiliation with the builder. I closed on my brand-new home on January 30, 2026. During my final walkthrough with Rick, the superintendent, I tested the range by turning it on, but I did not test the oven. I was encouraged multiple times during the walkthrough to be sure to call Whirlpool after closing to register the appliance warranties. After moving in on January 31, I used the oven for the first time on February 3 to prepare a seafood broil. I preheated the oven to 350 degrees. Once it reached temperature, it beeped and displayed an error code: ERR / EO / F3. After researching the code, I learned it may indicate faulty wiring. I tried turning the breaker off and back on as suggested, but the issue remained.

My mom recently became a homeowner, and we were happy to work with Mrs. ** who built our home. She made our move-in very easy. She communicated with us thoroughly and always kept us updated on everything.

Adams Builders provided a professional and supportive experience throughout the process of purchasing a completed home. From the outset, their team was communicative, transparent, and responsive, which helped make a complex transaction feel more manageable. I am particularly grateful for their willingness to extend and honor builder incentives, even though circumstances ultimately required me to use an outside lender. That flexibility demonstrated a customer-focused approach and a level of integrity that I truly appreciated.

The only reason they get a star is because of the salesperson who has tried to help. We were told to sign off on the final walk-through and the few things would be fixed. They were not and have not been. The yard is junk, and I was told it was sodded. It wasn’t. The closet organizers have ripped out of the wall, closing personal items to break. None of the wall shelves are in a stud, just in the drywall. Walls are uneven, toilets or not level and painting was done by a bunch of preschoolers. Promises upon promises and nothing! This is already a nightmare and we are only a few months in.

Not sure if this is a common problem with newer american houses since this is my first home, but purchased in late 2023 and let me just say for nearly $400k, quality control should be a higher priority for this company than it is. There’s no excuse for the subpar quality homes they’re putting up and obviously cutting corners in the process. It costs these builders no more than half to build. Based on my experience and experience of others it seems that they are building the cheapest presentable home possible with a few good features, knowing things will start to fall apart quickly after purchase, forget staying in strong condition for 20-30 years..

Review for Adams Homes – Ocala, FL. Our experience with Adams Homes has been extremely disappointing, and at this point, deeply concerning. It has now been over 14 months since A2Z Home Inspector LLC submitted our 11‑month inspection report on September 30, 2024 for our home at **. Despite repeated follow‑ups, only three items from that report have been addressed. The majority of issues remain unresolved with no clear timeline or accountability. This level of delay is unacceptable. Adams Homes is contractually responsible for correcting all issues identified before the one‑year mark, yet they have failed to meet that obligation. The lack of timely action has caused significant stress and disruption to our household.

I purchased my home in May of 2024. Within that time frame we had issues with side paneling falling off the home on several occasions in different locations on the home. They did address these because it was with the first year of purchase. A little over the first year of purchase we experienced nail pops in the ceiling and walls a great amount for a new construction. The door framing in the home is so horrible. Most of my doors with not close, or stay open. I told Adams and they refuse to address these issues. A lot of the other homeowners are complaining of same issue.

Very unhappy with this builder. We put down $1,000.00 to "hold" a house during the construction phase. We did not sell our house, therefore could not go through with the purchase. The lot was not level, which was a problem with many of the house sites in that area of building. Water run off in the front of the house. They never told us the $1,000.00 was not refundable. It is not. Please do your research. We lost the $1,000.00 because we did not fully vet this builder.

I give Adams Home a rating of "ZERO." They want a Thousand dollars from you, contract is very long, but in their interest only pertaining to company. Such as signing up with septic service for one year with their person of choice and upon completion of year follow up with building Department by paying yearly fee. Yearly fees for what? People are running away from HOA's. Overprice house and have or want you to sign an addendum to pay difference at closing. If any Monies are owed to building of home, you will be responsible. They charge for garage remotes. This company plays games with people and is not straight/forthcoming. They need to change their ways. They also change their realtors like drinking coffee. This company is a fraud and the government should protect consumers.

Terrible builder. Were not vary from their plans. They do things their way and will not accept your opinion. One incident replace air conditioning right behind master bedroom when told not to. Terrible finish work. Convertible sales relations. Promise the Moon by salesmen but only received minimal support from builder. Drywall work was horrible. Finish carpentry was terrible. Was lie to by general manager and sales agent all along the way. How am I supposed to be ready in August. Was not ready till almost December. General manager told me, "If you want a custom-built home go somewhere else." They do not do custom work and what you see is what you get. He said, "We are not a custom builder," over and over again stating they only build a moderate home and nothing special.

I purchased an Adams Home in March 2023 in Florida. Here is my situation in October 2025: During a routine semi-annual maintenance check of my HVAC system, mold was discovered in ductwork, air handler and along the wall. The install of the HVAC system was done shoddily 3 years ago when the home was built, per the HVAC company I hired. The mold discovered was a result of static pressure, poor ducts and unsealed ducts. The A/C unit was also considered not large enough for the square footage of the house. A 3.5 ton unit should have been installed versus a 3.0 ton. Unfortunately, I had to contract to have all ductwork replaced, new 3.5 ton A/C unit and air handler installed. The warranty for the system expired so I am now owing tens of thousands of dollars to replace an HVAC sytem that I paid for less than 3 years ago. The 3 ton A/C unit was fine, just too small for the house.

As a first-time homebuyer, I had an extremely disappointing experience with Adams Homes. After signing the contract in April and providing a deposit, I expected progress on my home. However, by October, the foundation still hadn’t been poured despite being given three specific pour dates. Each delay was blamed on “permitting issues,” but I later learned the company was waiting for a check from their home office to cover permit costs. To make matters worse, every time I spoke with someone at the office, I was given a different story, adding to the confusion and frustration. When I tried to escalate the issue, the regional manager refused to speak with me directly, insisting I write an email to the branch manager to be forwarded to him, further delaying resolution.

Title: Very disappointing experience with Adams Homes Construction. I purchased an Adams Homes property in Ocala, Florida (Brookhaven community), and what seemed like a dream home turned into a nightmare. After moving in, we discovered serious soil erosion and foundation issues — the ground under our home has collapsed, leaving visible gaps and cracks. We contacted the builder and their warranty company (Maverick), but both have refused to take responsibility, saying the issue is not covered, even though the damage clearly came from poor soil preparation during construction.

If I could give them zero stars, I would. I would never recommend this company to anyone considering buying a new build. They cut corners at every stage of construction—materials were cheap, workmanship was sloppy, and attention to detail was nonexistent. Problems started showing up almost immediately after we moved in, from having to have our entire master bath rebuilt, to over an inch gaps in the landing of the stairs, cracks on the foundation of the home, having our brand new HVAC system rebuilt within a week of living here. To then it not working properly for an entire year and getting gaslit by them and their crappy contractors.

We were looking for a house that was turnkey for our daughter. The neighborhood that she now lives in is very safe and comfortable for her. The house matches her vibe and is the perfect size for her to grow into over the years. The house is also priced very well. The details in this house and customization are amazing. I can see this house going up in value over the next few years, not only because of the quality work but the neighborhood that it is located. We also had the most amazing realtor, Natalie **. I looked at many other homes and because of our realtor, she is the one who sealed the deal. From the beginning to closing, it was a great experience. Even after the close, the team has been very responsive and helpful with questions and even taken care a few minor repairs needed in a timely/prompt fashion. I highly recommend Adams Homes.

The home, overall is just fine and exactly what we were looking for and wanting. Good work, and time spent making it right. Now. The yard. If you want rocks and dead grass, sign them up. I haven’t planted a single plant with removing around 3.5-5 gallons of ROCKS. I live in North GA so I would expect some PWR to be experienced but this is gravel from the construction and bricks. They don’t warrant the yard and grass doesn’t grow on rocks. Do better guys and take care of paying customers.

Updated on 10/14/2025: I closed on my new Adams Homes house in August 2025, and before I even moved in, my home flooded due to a major plumbing error (the plumber capped the wrong drain line behind my washer, which caused the entire washer load to dump inside my walls and across my kitchen, laundry room, and garage). When I reached out for help, my builder Louie and his supervisor promised to come inspect multiple times but never showed up.

We purchased a brand new build in Palm Bay Florida 2/2025. Buying process was excellent. We have lived here for 6 months and the last 2 months we have started having septic issues. It has been such a hassle dealing with the warranty representative and getting someone out timely. We currently have sewage backing up in the toilets and sink. Our house smells awful and we are unable to use the restroom because our toilets won’t flush. We are unable to reach anyone on the weekend to help us. We are so frustrated and seeking an attorney at this point. What we thought was our dream home has now become a nightmare. It is my husband and son in a 4 bedroom house and we are mostly gone during the week. This I should not be happening. Highly discourage Adams homes if you’re looking to purchase.

RJ sold us an Adams home with hay for lawn... When we moved in we were told you're barking up the wrong tree .... They won't give us a lawn.... Plus we need a well which we never were told that the water here is outrageous so it's been a horrible experience when this was suppose to be our retirement with peace and happiness.... Thanks a lot.... Don't buy in juliette falls from adams homes in dunnellon fl....

I am writing this in hopes that anyone interested in purchasing an Adams Homes house sees it and can benefit from our situations. One - the install on our HVAC system was done incorrectly and only 3 years in this home, we are having to replace the entire system, because it is covered in mold. The A/C unit is also inadequate for the square footage of this house. At MINIMUM we should have a 3.5 ton; by professional HVAC standards we should have a 5 ton. They installed a 3-ton and then botched the duct installation. Now we are looking at a $45,000 price tag to replace the ductwork and get an appropriate-sized A/C - as well as throwing away a perfectly good 3-year old, 3-ton A/C unit. It wasn't adequate, but it did the best it could, until we realized how overworked it was.

I absolutely adore my Adams Homes! ❤️ Adams Homes beautifully combines space, elegance, and top-notch quality. When you choose to invest in one of their houses, you're not just purchasing a property; you're embracing your very own home sweet home—a delightful little piece of paradise. If they ever consider hiring me for advertising, I’d gladly jump at the opportunity! But honestly, it’s not just advertising; it’s a heartfelt testimony of my journey in acquiring my dream home.

Don't trust the A+ rating on BBB of this dishonest and uncaring company. Communication: 1/5. Reliability: 1/5. Trustworthiness: 1/5. Customer Service: 1/5. We bought a new build in AL, and the kitchen island cabinet was installed incorrectly and broke the water line, which led to water/black mold under floorboards and cabinet walls. Their warranty states AH will repair issues “of substantial nonconformity,” so we notified them immediately.

We purchased a home from Adams Homes in Swann Hill, Statesville NC. The sales agent was absolutely great. The construction and amenities exceeded our expectations. Would definitely recommend them. If we were to move again we would seek them out. We had been looking at purchasing a lot and having them build on it. We couldn't be happier.

If you buy a home from Adams, double and triple check your floor plans. We recently discovered that our home was supposed to have a living room window. I reached out to the Greenville, SC office to address this issue. The production manager, Chip **, refuses to fix this issue. One would expect more with their customer service and quality of work. Buyer beware, especially if Chip ** is involved.

Doris referred our Real Estate needs through Jack Conway Referral Registry. They got in touch with Melonie ** of Epique Realty in Beverly Hills, FL who in return referred us to Karen who represents Adam's Homes at Fairways at Twisted Oaks. We looked at several different new homes for sale in this community with Melonie. Once we decided on a home, Melonie introduced us to Karen who was very friendly and knowledgeable. She put together all the paperwork we needed to fill out to purchase our home. There was a lot of paperwork to fill out and Karen made it look so easy; she definitely knows her job. From there Karen introduced us to Jacob the Superintendent at the property. He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and very approachable during our home buying process.

Please run far, far away from ADAMS HOMES. They will scam you out of months and months of waiting to purchase one of their properties. Only to be told the appraisal value came in under the sales price and that you have to pay $40,125 on top of the $20,000 down payment for a house that they are selling that at the time we tried to purchase it was $393,125. Now it’s $404,125 and the appraisal value is only $353,000. Don’t fall for the scam.

I bought an Adams home five months ago and I absolutely love it! It is perfect and I have no complaints with my home. They do an excellent job with the homes and I love how they look so different meaning they change the colors, some stone work, some brick work, so they all don't look alike like some other communities and builders. I would absolutely buy another Adams Home if needed. The people I worked with when buying the home were wonderful too. Very kind and helpful.

There are many builders, but I purchased an Adams home. Nothing will absolutely perfect but, there are things that should be better. Living in Florida great pain is taken to try and make them "hurricane" proof! They make the walls cement block and the roof good for 125 MPH. But they attach cheap roof vents. Recently, we stayed through Hurricane Milton. No damage to the exterior but the interior was soaked because of cheap roof vents. The problem is Adams knew they were cheap, but didn't install better ones. Then they insist they don't cover the damage because it's a hurricane? If I had to do it over, I'd buy from a different builder. At no time did Adams state that the roof vents were no good in a hurricane and installed shoddy ones. I think an attorney could have a ball with this one.
