Maronda Homes Reviews

I live on the street where a Maronda home is being built. Area around home is filthy, trash all over, block on the street and piled high on the property. Silt fence is knocked down, and sand is flowing down the street onto the neighbor's lawn.

Jerry ** Hamilton Ohio... We had a home built in Hamilton about 4.5 years ago. Have had nothing but problems. Leaking roof, leaking basement, squeaking floors. Sump pump problems. Had to put new cutters on. They were too small, put new floors in. Had roofer fix the roof. Still working on getting basement leaks repaired. It's a shame to spend this much money and have these many problems.

I purchased a home with Maronda on 10/2025 in the Cincinnati Ohio. It have been nothing but a disaster, Please do not waste your time and hard earned money with these builders. The home is put up beautifully but with every cheap piece of equipment there is. I can go on but my experience have been a disappointment.

Our experience with building our home in Northern Virginia with Maronda Homes was, unfortunately, one of the worst customer service experiences we have ever had. We signed on contract in July 2025 with an initial expected close of January 2026, however, we did not close until the end of June 2026. From the beginning of construction through closing, we experienced repeated delays, poor communication, and a consistent lack of accountability. Throughout the process, we were repeatedly provided timelines and explanations that proved inaccurate. As delays continued, we began contacting Fauquier County departments directly and reviewing public records ourselves because we were not receiving complete or timely information from Maronda.

⭐ 1 Star — DO NOT BUILD WITH MARONDA HOMES. We paid $800,000 for a brand-new home at **. We moved in on February 27, 2026. What followed has been one of the most stressful, exhausting, and infuriating experiences of our lives. The short version: Do not build with Maronda Homes. Not at any price. Here is what we have lived through: 50+ Work Orders — Most Still Unresolved. We submitted over 50 documented warranty and repair claims. After months of follow-up, the vast majority remained open. Of the items that were "repaired," several were made worse by Maronda's own crew.

We bought a home from Maronda Homes and it has been a nightmare. We closed on December 23 and they literally put the house together with spit and glue. My toilet was not even bolted down, my spare shower did not have any support (cement or foam) under it although they swore it had. And presently my house sits in a hole where all water drains towards my house so my foundation is wet even after 1 and a half years. During the process of the build they went through 3 site managers which apparently was a negative. While my house was in the process I was promised by site managers 1 and the second who was named Tony that the back of house where it was clear would be leveled and well it wasn’t at all dealt with. So now I am still dealing with the issue because it was recognized before my warranty was up, but they are not handling it properly and just trying to put a bandaid on the issue.

We researched companies to build a new home on my lot next to our current home. All the bigger companies got mostly terrible reviews so I was very wary choosing a builder. I chose Maronda because RMC mortgage was able to work with me as I have good credit but no credit. Since I live next door I was able to watch all the stages of construction. From what I observed the workers did an excellent job and were polite and respectful to me. I tried to keep as many trees on the lot as I could but Charlotte County insisted on a bare ditch/moat around all sides of the lot.

I was looking to have a new home built on my lot next to my old house here in Port Charlotte Florida. I researched most of the custom builders and large cookie cutter home builders. All the big builders got mostly terrible reviews. Maronda was less expensive than most and since I have a good credit rating but NO credit I was having a difficult time getting a loan. RMC Mortgage was able to get me a loan after lots of requirements that were stressful and time consuming. If I was more educated on the internet workings it would have been easier. Also there were frequent contract updates that needed immediate attention to advance. Since I live next door to the home being built I was able to observe a lot of the construction and feel the workers were very qualified and didn’t cut corners. Maronda worked with me to save as many natural trees on the property as possible.

We bought our house 7 months ago. Barbara was the realtor. Excellent person. She work with us since day one. As always she did a great job. The superintendent Gene works great with us as well. All staff very professional with us. Always hear your concerns and if we have a complaint they fix it. It was our first experience building a house and over-all was a good experience.

Maronda Homes made the process of buying a new home very streamlined. Met with Steve virtually and went through all the models. He was very familiar with all the layouts, timeline, out of pocket, and overall what to expect. Looking forward to closing our new house in August.

Robin from Pine Ridge is a pure pleasure to work with. She is calm, patient, kind, available always by phone or text. She is a problem solver. Very knowledgeable. Would recommend her service to all.

Run for the hills!!! They try to jam a one sided "Seller" contract down your throat and will not accept any contract changes leaving the "Buyer" on the hook for unlimited costs and potential legal issues.

Don’t hope for an actual timeline when you build with Maronda! We signed to begin our house in October 2024 with a delivery date of May 2025. It is now February of 2026 and our lot hasn’t even been started. Our sales associate has promised us multiple delivery dates since May with nothing to back it up. Deadlines have come and gone with zero communication from anyone. After moving across the country under the assumption that there would be a house in May, we have spent nearly $9,000 just in storage costs.

We have lived in our 2 story new construction home since 2019. We have had to do 3 tear outs upstairs due to water leaking to the subfloor. 1st was the master shower floor liner was cut during installation. Leak was found 3 years in. Shower had to be completely torn out. 2nd time AC water overflowed and it came raining down into my 2nd story kitchen. 3rd time- water lines and drain lines are sitting on top of each other. And a small leak formed on a 2x4 where the water line had been resting for years in the subfloor. It’s exhausting! 7 years- 3 tear outs. Multiple neighbors have had the same problems with water leaks. Do not buy from Maronda Homes!

I visited Inverness, Florida Maronda Homes office to go and see an Orchid Model home. I met with Steven **. Young man answered all my questions and concerns about Maronda Homes. The house was beautiful. I was very impressed with home and packages they offered for the price. I just retired and looking to leave New York City. I'm on a budget. I can't believe that I can get a home for under 270k - Brand new! Looking forward toward my next step. David **

We live in the Huntwell West Maronda Homes and contrary to most reviews we have been happy with our home. Our home was built in June 2025. The home is lovely and the neighbors are very nice. We had an independent in inspection done as well and they thought the home was well constructed. The building supervisor has been attentive to any concerns or corrections we have needed. Compared to home prices in other states this was more competitive. The only “criticisms” I have so far is that the ”add ons” were pricey and choices very limited. Otherwise we are pleased with our new home.

Issues with the walls, poor ceiling, poor paint poor carpet, and poor installation, Floor squeaks, I have a few neighs they have really bad leak. Another Neighbourhood his foundation cracked and I have a lot of construction guys in my first 30 days came in to fix tons of issues and they are not fixed properly. What to tell you it’s really a nightmare, even though the inspector that I hired to check the house, he was lecturing me and my wife for like almost 4 hours how to use this, how to use that and I keep telling him I need to know about what is going on between the walls. Hey change the subject and he’s talking about how to use that and this blah blah blah then he went outside. Have a nice conversation with the builder for almost like half an hour. I can’t trust anyone anymore. My advice to you try to build your own house. There is no more hope in these kids out there messing around and destroying your dreams and they have no knowledge about what they’re doing.

BUYER BE AWARE!!!! They are all "We are there for you" when looking to buy, Then when you are settled in after the worst experience on their lending service that makes their people and the offers too good to be true it is, the warranty they back out with every excuse, Then blame another boss that is nonexistent like the wizard of oz man behind the curtain. Fake, Fake all the way around. There are many builders in Florida and communities. Run far, far away from them. It costs you and resale will kill you. It's really a unplanned community. I should have bought a pre existing home or waited for one of these homes here to go for sale and had them take the depreciation, Can't give them away and they left the association and now the homeowners to deal with their now subpar Amenities building and equipment and strict county overseeing due to their construction environmental practices.

I will not recommend Maronda Homes to anyone. They are interested in selling and fails to commit to their promises. I have a cabinet that needs to be replace for over a year and Steven ** keeps giving me excuses. He came to take the cabinet out and refused to replace and anyt ime I call him is a different story and excuse. This a poor client experience and will not recommend. Please if you are looking quality after service, find a company that will commit and stay to their promises.

****BEWARE**** This place is a complete joke, they treat their vendors horrible, they withhold payments because of new policies that came into effect after work has been performed and say they won’t pay you until you update your policy. I have had to get lawyers involved and put a lien on them to get any action. They home building is very Sub par as well.

✨ When I say this one was special… I mean it! 🏡💫 Adriana with Maronda Homes was an absolute rockstar from day one! 💥 She gave my new construction buyers the full VIP experience — patient, professional, and always on point! 🙌 For 10 months straight, Adriana went above and beyond — answering every question, tackling every detail, and keeping that calm, can-do energy that makes all the difference. 💪 She didn’t just meet expectations… she set the bar! ⭐️

I am writing to commend Scott **! He has been working with me for the last 12 months as new Maronda Home owners. I must tell you that we have been quite disappointed with the product we were delivered last August when we signed our purchase agreement and accepted our new home at 8 Zoffer Court, Palm Coast. But we also want to recognize Scott for his great service and his redeeming qualities for Maronda. We have have spoken with several superintendents/managers and we've had MANY different Maronda workers in our home to remedy the SHODDY work that was done on our home. It has been a year of frequently bringing our issues to your attention and Scott ** stands out as one of the only representatives for Maronda that not only heard our complaints and came to our home to inspect the issues, but he worked hard to remedy what he could and give Maronda a good name.

Poor quality material used or builder didn’t do it correctl. A CHEAP JOB, but we are stuck with a mortgage, and are on to the Next victim. My upstairs floors squeak when you walk and you can hear it downstairs (very loud), which is so EMBARRASSING. Maronda Homes refused to fix it when I brought it to their attention 2 years ago. Now it’s getting WORSE. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE a BRAND NEW HOME... if you want a home to live in for a lifetime. Please don’t purchase Maronda Homes.

We are under contract with Maronda now. The many poor reviews are a little intimidating. I read all 200+ reviews and am offering my synopsis and experience thus far. I will say like many others, we have had repeatedly poor communication issues and customer service. Realtors/buyers, if the home is heavily discounted, please verify your commission, odds are your cut will be dropped and this was not communicated to us. The actual process as far as financials and paperwork goes has been smooth and painless. I will update this review once we get our private inspection done and upon closing.

This builder does not build quality homes as indicated on their website. They were not responsive when concerns were raised. When the realtor got involved and the buyer was not comfortable purchasing this poorly constructed home, the sales manager decided to threaten the buyers with loss of deposit plus 20% of the home purchase price. Truly this does not build confidence with their buyers. I would highly encourage any prospective buyer to run away from this builder as quickly as you can. I dare say that I find it hard to believe if any Maronda employee would want one of their relatives purchasing this home. You can see in the pictures below, the foundation is not at all level, has large gaping holes at the sill plate, and the concrete work has exposed pipes and questionable hurricane tiedowns.

Poor quality homes falling apart within the first 3 years. Lack of communication and unprofessional, walls cracking, floor tiles not aligned and loose or missing grout. Septic tank failed the first year. File a warranty case and never heard from anyone.

SOUTH FLORIDA BUYERS BEWARE – As a homeowner at Maronda’s new Heritage Station development in Punta Gorda, I want to warn prospective buyers about Maronda’s post-closing customer service. Although our buying and construction process was seamless and pleasant, we have been trying for months to get Maronda executives and the community’s developer to come together to fix problems related to the irrigation system that just so happens to be tied into the wastewater detention system. After repeated pleas from homeowners to work collaboratively to solve an issue that has resulted in thousands of dollars of lost landscaping, all we get is repeated closed door meetings between the developer and Maronda that result in each pointing the finger at the other.

Maronda Homes just built a new house in Sugar Mill woods on Greentree Street and while they was installing a new electric box for the house that they built when they dug up the yard they dug up part of my irrigation system line. I was having low pressure in this zone so while I was out looking at it, I saw water gushing up through the yard started digging, and there was an entire line, completely busted and ripped apart they hid it under new sod and didn’t tell me about it. Highly pissed off.

Once signing the contract to build our family home, quality went out of the windows (literally). And in our case everything came through the windows. Every windows leaks, and has destroyed the wooden sills. The flooring was coming up in the first month. We found leaks in the foundation around the edges of the house and the foundation itself wasn't leveled at all, bringing in more moisture and mold. Maronda had to be aware of this because when the subpar flooring bubbled and had to ripped out, it was only patched instead of floated, leaving us to feel every flaw in the floor.

We purchased our home just a couple of months ago and have encountered several problems. My husband made several phone calls to the building supervisor which were not returned until he had to visit the office and spoke with a sales person. The problems are still ongoing with false promises to repair them. We are very dissatisfied with Maronda Homes.

Put a deposit on a new build last fall. A month ago I was informed by lender I did not qualify for financing. Notified Maronda Homes and they informed me I will lose the deposit. Their response is, read your contract.

***Don’t do it. Spend your money on better quality! I live in a Marina home in WV. I’ve been here 5 months and it is falling apart. This company does not follow up on warranty work. The sheet rock is trailer home quality. I literally cannot hang things on the wall without it falling out. We only received 1 key that does not go to our grave or back door, the garbage disposal is broken. The electrical in the laundry room had to be fixed because it was wired incorrectly and would not run a dryer, my powder room sink leaks.

We had an outstanding experience with Ricardo from our first visit at Moranda to the present day. Ricardo is very knowledgeable on all Moranda models, features and options. He made it easy to request and secure changes, finalize the specifications and understand the build process. He has been on top of and has communicated thru each step of the build. Ricardo has been a great help in communicating and working with VanDyke Mortgage for our contingency bridge loan. It helped us tremendously for something we have never done before. Ricardo is definitely a tremendous ambassador for Moranda Homes.

Dissatisfied. Stay away from Maronda Homes. We wrote the contract in May 2024 for Livorno and all upgrades. Did not keep the floor plan, that was signed. Specifically, the door from the master bedroom to Master bath hallway is not installed [see the floor plan attached], but they asked me to contact my own contractor. Few places, the switches are not user-friendly or efficiently installed. Shelves are upgraded but the quality is poor. The floor height and patio height are not sufficient to prevent storm drain water. Finishing is very poor, and more. Finally, stay away from Maronda homes. Their promises in the design and floor plans will never keep up.

Every new home has issues. This is not our first new home, but certainly our worst first home experience. This experience has been devastating and a disaster. Our home is less than 3 years old now. Problems found w/in a day. We have over $200,000 damages to repair home and Maronda takes NO responsibility. We had tamales inside the 12 foot kitchen island (only found after removing quartz countertop due to structural damage). We had 6 months of documented bug complaints, mold inside home verified by labs, water coming under LVP flooring due to water vapor and condensation verified by independent engineers, flooring (LVP and carpet) improperly installed needing complete replacement verified by independent flooring inspector.

We built a Venice Model in Sugarmill through Maronda Builders. The overall experience was amazing. The process started with our Salesman Ricardo who walked us through the entire process. He was helpful in picking the right lot and then explored all aspects of color designing of our home. We then had mini meetings that went over timelines and projected completion dates and key phases. We met our Construction Manager Dean who also helped us through the different construction phases with dates and times things would be done. All of our dates were either met or early than anticipated. I can’t emphasize how well this worked and I recommend them highly. They are easy to communicate with and are always available. The quality of the counters and building materials are top of the line. Don’t hesitate to ask questions and the company programs are very competitive. We went to five other builders and no one came close.

They poured a bad mixture of concrete and the driveway is flaking. The side of the driveway that started flaking was never driven on for 3 months because my husband was gone for the police academy. We have been there for 6 months and they are refusing to fix it because “there is no warranty on concrete” but yet they’re okay with pouring a bad mixture. The warranty manager even said that our neighbor's driveway is doing the same thing. They claim they have the best products and the best quality but yet refuse to fix something bad of their doing, so no it is not the best quality. The warranty manager said it is a salt damage but no salt was ever put on the driveway.

My husband an I bought a home. We paid an extra $8,000 to have city water for our new home. Went to the preconstruction meeting. No city water. Would not return $8,000. Was told take it as is or leave it. Did care they messed up. Just wanted to steal our money.

We closed our home on 2023. Immediately after moving into our home, we experienced high water bills due to neglectful irrigation system which was leaking water. After hounding Maronda down for months, we had to discover the issue ourselves and practically beg them to fix it. We asked for reimbursement to which the Customer Service Warranty employee failed to ever respond to us. While they did fix the irrigation leak, they we were never reimbursed.

This Builder is left as traumatized... no consideration for the drainage of the street the settling of the land or the sinkhole at the front of the property undisclosed to the new purchase! They have created serious drain problems, so much so flooding out one of their prior builds that one now has 20 sandbags for the front door, the third build replaced already done all the facade, all the drywall in the kitchen redone a second time in the front yard, it's been a living hell!
