No, it is a brand new home constructed May 2024. My mother and I were 
going to buy it to live in and we were so close as in they called 
wanting to set a closing date 3 days before she went into the hospital. 
It all had to be redone after she passed but short story is that they 
were just lazy when they constructed it. There are nail holes and seems 
in the the baseboards and door frames that were simply not done. And, 
the walls were only primed and not painted. I could not get them to 
paint the walls. This is not my first brand new home. I am simply giving 
up at this point and hiring someone. The repairs were because a shower 
that has never been used developed a leak and the company's on going 
thing is everything is on back order. It wasn't fixed for over six 
months and caused mold because the water ran out of the shower onto the 
floor. walls had to be replaced in the bathroom, on the other side in my 
kitchen behind the stove, they had to take out the cabinet next to the 
stove, in my pantry they had to create an access panel for the shower 
and replace the wall with mold in there also. It is a very sad situation.
