Indian Springs Montana

I am sorry, I just don't get why anyone in their right mind would want to pay for a home on a Public Golf course. Doesn't this mean that the "public" can pretty much walk right by your window or hit a golf ball into your home. It would seem that there is no element of privacy.

If I was a golfer, maybe I would feel differently, its just not for me.

Today I saw the Spec. Home going in at the Indian Springs Golf course, I hear their ads on the radio, I see the ads in the magazine, however, what I don't see is the follow through. It sounds "dreamy" in the ads but in realty it is kind of blah, in person.

The builder of this spec home, it has been said that his construction is inferior, folks make sure you get an "engineered" inspection before you buy. Homes are often time just slapped up, and this particular builder has built a whole lot of Spec homes in the area, go talk to the folks who live in them and see if they are happy, ask around about people who have walked through the homes during construction.

I would not live on a public course for Free. There you are right out in an open field with lots of weeds, and tall grass, your right on the highway where the noise bounces of the hill behind you and right into your house.

I am not saying this to "hurt anyone" I simply want the consumers to know what they are getting into. Take a look behind the drywall before you buy, ask for photos of during construction, ask for drawings, do your own red flags check, get an infrared camera to inspect, get a Home Warranty, get guarantees in writing.

Get it in writing from the builder and the Seller that the Builder is insured and that if you find a Latent Defect or an Adverse Material fact in the future caused by inferior construction, than they will fix the problem at their expense, contact their insurance company BEFORE you buy and make sure that this insurance will intend provide some sort of guaranty that builder is building a home that really will be habitable.

NEVER expect that a Realtor or a Contractors insurance will protect you, I know with Real Estate E and O insurance - the intention is to protect the Realtor and not the consumer, I would guess it is the same in most construction issues.
