Pebble Creek Properties - Fradulent Bait and Switch Practice for New Home Purchase Goodyear AZ

If I could give this developer and real estate broker, that represent the new home sales, I would. We entered into a purchase agreement based on pricing provided by their agent. The first clue, of a possible problem, should have been the HUGE non refundable earnest money deposit they require. Any reputible builder doesn't do business this way.

BEFORE signing we asked to see the included "standards" for the home and we were assured that it would all be covered in our "Design Meetings", but you cannot have a design meeting, without a purchase agreement and a huge NON REFUNDABLE earnest money deposit. We "trusted" the pricing information provided and moved forward. After 2 full days of design meetings, it became clear that the pricing we got was at least 40% below what the REAL price of the home would be, because the "included" features were tile floors with tiles that had flaws and granite counter tops typically used in starter homes, not homes over $1M. These are just a few of the many examples.

The pricing to "change" the standard features didn't give us any credit for the "standard" options not used. When we requested our earnest money back, because we felt "duped" by the bait and switch tactics, the answer was no, even though the numbers we used to enter into the agreement were not achievable. We've built sever homes and have NEVER seen such deceptive practices.  If you google Robson Homes you will find that we are NOT the only ones who lost a substantial deposit with these practices.   If you DO decide to build with them (and I would google the quality reviews) DO NOT agree to their outragous earnest money demand.  Demand a FULL and FINAL price for the home before you give them a nickle.
