I lived at Lake Ashton. I highly advise anyone interested in moving there to find another place to live.
Yes, it's beautiful but it is full of problems,i.e. roads, CDD, drywall,fighting factions among the residents..need I go on. Getting the builder to 'fess up' is a nightmare in itself.Expecting your sales agent to stand by you is a joke. The condition of the drywall has been going on since the phase of building following the hurricane. I know this for a fact.Even though at that time there were complaints and inquiries as to the smell in the new homes being built no one paid any attention. This could have all been avoided if anyone would have listened or cared. But no, money talks and lots of money was being made. NOW...there are two sides to this. Perhaps the builders in the area didn't know of the dry wall problem and I'm giving that a fair chance. BUT, there was such a 'buying frenzy greed' during the time period right before the 'great bubble burst' that well........that's what greed gets. All those who came in and bought homes to "flip" some buying two or more at a time. I can't feel sorry for you.
You came in to make money on a community by renting out homes to people that were not part of that community. That is what contributes to the downfall of any community. No one wanted that. But, money just kept rolling in, sales people were flying high, buildings with defective dry wall and who knows what else were going up faster than we could keep up. So to the "flippers' you gambled and lost. Well, too bad.
So did a community when you left your stinking homes sitting.
If you think you will get this builder to do anything, you have a headache to face. Sometimes we have to know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em.
Lake Ashton, Florida in general is OVER folks. Retire elsewhere.
