Dear Cardel, Fuck You (resolved by Cardel)

[Z_Fan]

Edit: (July 2) I have requested the admin lock this thread until such a time that Cardel Homes has an opportunity to follow through with what they have written in this thread. Don't be surprised if it gets locked very soon.

Edit: (Aug 8) I have requested the admin unlock this thread so that I can provide an update.

Edit: (Aug 9) I posted an update. Thanks to those on beyond.ca for reading/posting, and thanks to hyperzell for taking it to twitter.

Edit: (Aug 10) The final update I posted is on Page 6 of the thread. I'm assuming it won't get any longer, but you never know!

Who did InRich build his new house with? I remember him posting he wasn't happy with his build neither.

Well you already helped one couple. We didn't even consider Cardel after talking to you and Chris.

Cardel was brutal.

We built with them. They forced me to take possession before the house was even painted.

I said that I wouldn't sign the papers, and they immediatly said they would pull the contract and sell the house we waited a year for to someone else.

I talked to my lawyer and he said that it's in my best interest to just sign the papers and wait. The value of the house increased by $150,000 from the time we purchased it to the time we took possession so he said that Cardel would be very happy to refund our deposit and sell the house for $150,000 more.

It really really sucked. In the end I had to get my own painters in and repaint the entire house along with a bunch of shitty drywall work. The worst part about it is that we did not build an entry level home, just in extras we were over $75,000. Everything was fucked up. I had the cabinets rebuilt, railing sanded and restained and even had hire someone to do the parging on the outside.

Anyways I would never ever ever touch anytihng with cardel again.

Awesome thread

OP either needs to include some details, or this one should get nuked. I despise beyonders who start incredibly vague threads hating on a business without any given reason. They only hope to pollute the forums with flag-burning mob rage.

What happened? Cardel's CEO fucked your wife without a condom and drove away in your 300zx? I sure hope so, since that's what I'm going to believe until you post otherwise!

On a completely related note : Dear (random name), Fuck You

Seeing as I've known Z_Fan for a long time, I trust that he wouldn't post something like this up unless he got REALLY fucked over. Be patient, he probably has a long ass story to post and will take some time doing so.

I've been in my Cardel home a little over 2 years now.

I don't even want to get into details, it makes my blood boil. And similar to Sillysod, I'm in one of their upper end models.

To sum things up, there's a better chance their president and CEO Ryan Ockey has his first period than I ever buy another Cardel home.

Holy shit! I've seen grow ops with better window sills than that.

How is that not covered under new home warranty at all?

Cardel does appear to make some poor homes, I would have hoped for better with this high profile Mormon company. Nothing is 100% but my few (known) dealings with Mormon companies have been first rate.

Maybe picket their local church? Finding out where the CEO attends would be easy.

Cardel.

He lives 6 doors down from me. (Or so)

Hopefully you can regale us with stories then about him.
Those look like 100 year old windows though, I would be pissed.
Did they mess up any other stuff?

Right here!

It's like a fucking nightmare that never ends. I don't know how far back one can search Beyond but there are soooooo many bad stories about Cardel. I don't know the OP in any way but my blood pressure rises every time I hear about another person screwed over by these assholes. How are these guys still in business? If I ran my business with the same eithics these jackwads had I would've been shut down before I got the doors open.
