Finke Homes, Inc. are despicable
Mood:
on fire
Welcome to the Finke Homes, Inc. Sucks blog. This blog is dedicated to past and present Finke victims presenting their experiences about Finke's Homes, Inc's. despicable business activities. Further information can be found at finkehomessuck.com and I encourage everyone to visit that site to view the legal actions filed against Finke Homes, Inc.
This is a despicable company to do business with in Northern Kentucky. If you are considering building a new home in Northern Kentucky, there are some critical points I would like to convey.
Number one, and most important, DO NOT USE FINKE HOMES INC.
Number two, whatever builder you decide to use, do not sign any contract or "ADDENDUM" that in anyway refers to an "ARBITRATION" agreement to resolve disputes. Arbitration is designed for one thing and one thing only: to protect the business interest of the builder and screw the consumer. If a builder is reputable then that builder should not be worried about their legal liability for failure to abide by the terms of the contract. Only a business that has "problems" will force an arbitration agreement down your throat to protect themselves. If the builder you want to use will not remove the arbitration clause from the contract, then get up and walk out the door.
Number three, Boone County is not a consumer friendly county. Carefully consider where you want to build. Everyone know the catch phrase in real estated "location, location, location." It did not mean the county where homeowners have no rights in contracts. But it does now. In Boone County, contract fundamentals like "meeting of the minds" and "misrepresentation" does not apply. The court system determines that the contract means whatever the builder wants it to mean. They can do and say anything to get you to sign the contract without any regards to culpability under the law. There is a "good old boy" network here in Boone County. The Planning Commission and Building Department do not hold the developers responsible for violating the codes and conditions set forth on them. The court system supports established homebuilders and deny citizens their rights in the Circuit Court of Boone County. Even in cases of fraud, the homebuilder is allowed to escape judicial review and a "jury of your peers" is unavailable in civil actions against homebuilders.
If you find that hard to believe, then I refer you to Boone County Circuit Court case number 03-CI-0964.
