D.R. Horton: Where Quality Meets Assurance

D.R. Horton is known for its commitment to quality. Before selling a home, every property undergoes a thorough inspection from top to bottom, inside and out. This process ensures that you, as the buyer, receive nothing less than a perfect home. D.R. Horton goes above and beyond, providing a ten-year warranty on the structure, double the state-mandated five-year warranty. It’s all about delivering peace of mind to the new homeowners.

When it’s time for your home inspection, the buyer has the option to hire a home inspector to assess the property. Every builder understands that there might be a few things to address during this inspection. But no worries; once the inspection is complete, the findings are delivered to the sales representative for that neighborhood. They will address any issues and schedule an orientation for you with a third-party inspector.

Your Personal Orientation

During the orientation, you’ll get to know everything about your new home – how it works, ensuring that everything is working properly, and confirming that it’s exactly what you expected. Seven to ten days after that, you’ll do a walk-through and a punch list where any remaining issues are addressed. This thorough process ensures that everything is complete prior to closing.

Warranty for Your Peace of Mind

Now, let’s talk about warranties. D.R. Horton provides a one-year warranty on material and workmanship, covering anything that’s not working properly. This includes issues like doors not closing properly or windows not shutting correctly. The second-year warranty covers the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing components, so if anything goes wrong, they’ll take care of it.

But here’s the kicker: while the state of Louisiana requires a five-year warranty for the foundation and structure, D.R. Horton steps up by providing a ten-year warranty. That means any issues related to your foundation or structure within ten years will be promptly addressed.

Filing a Warranty Request

In case you encounter any issues, D.R. Horton makes it easy for you to request warranty service. Simply visit their website, click on the warranty section, and submit your request. You’ll need to provide your zip code, address, and contact information. Describe the issue you’re facing, and your request will go directly to the local office, ensuring a prompt response from professionals who know your area.

Now, you might be wondering, what if you’re not satisfied with your house within the first 12 months? D.R. Horton has you covered with their “Love it or Leave it” program. They’ll sell your home for free.
