Maronda Homes Reviews

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.
