Foster Communities (Maryland) Foster Communities Failed New Home Construction Baltimore Maryland

I live in a new housing commnity built by Foster Homes of Maryland.  This community has about 100 new homes and has been under construction fo r several years.  Approximately 20 of the homes in this development had deteriorating driveways within a couple of years of delivery.  The errosion can be seen at this link http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/ab202/Foxer55/IMG_0081_zpsotm6uop8.jpg 

This errosion has continued since the homes were built and creates a real mess.  The material erroding from the surface gets into homes, in cars, all over the yard, and is shoveled up in bucketfulls during snow conditions.  Here are photos of a handfull of the material  http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/ab202/Foxer55/IMG_0084_zpswvynykiy.jpg  http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/ab202/Foxer55/IMG_0083_zpsb8wnrajr.jpg 

Foster refuses to even discuss the problem.  And they have no explanation whatever as to why this is happening to only a percentage of the homes.  Why is it happening to some homes and not others?  Their continued refusal to address the issue will force homeowners to raise a significant amount of money to bring a brand new home up to standard.  To give an example of how poorly they have attempted to resolve any problem, here is a photo of repairs they were forced to incorporate by the county to teh driveway aprons.  They couldn't do a good job.  The photo shows deterioration of the repairs only one month after they were in place.  A driveway apron is erroding just one month after the work was done.  http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/ab202/Foxer55/IMG_0078_zpstowpgeib.jpg

Concrete specialists that have been asked about the problem conclude it is a function of poor finish work, the surface of the concrete was not completed properly.  And Foster ignores the problem.  Foster has used fly-by-night contractors in this community, evidenced by the level and range of problems overall.  Foster then refuses to back up the poor work by these contractors.

The conclusion here is that buying a Foster Community home puts a buyer at risk for having to raise even more cash after the home purchase to try to correct the problems and bring the home up to standard.  Beware.
