More on Images Below--Ruined Lot

What are we looking at in the images below? First is a picture of the edge of our property on the north side. You'll notice a split in the mulch. These splits formed, and continue to form, ALMOST 12 INCHES DEEP, across the width of the property. They run in parallel lines, again tracking the large drainage route that you see in the subsequent photos. So, we have a splitting, falling, shelf-creating, flooding piece of property--value lost. Isn't that every home owner's dream?!

Also, you'll see that the ENTIRE width of the lawn is impacted. Consort's laughable suggestion that they might "fill in with a little soil," has left me wondering if they are truly this inept or perhaps just very greedy. Again, nothing can be remedied on this land--even an attempt (which would be unsuccessful because of the nature of all contiguous lots and large drainage pipes and sewers indicating a necessary drainage route) would necessitate the uprooting of thousands of dollars of landscaping.

Why is Consort deaf to our loss of value? Homes are an investment, as well as an emotional attachment. Homes are our refuge. However, when your home is the nightmare, you can forget about the refuge.

Next up, pictures of the drainage sewer on the land they are attempting to sell for homes. Later, a comparison to the way other builders treat these drainage routes. HINT: Not by building homes upon them.
