Re: J D Power ratings?

Text of the message:
IMO those are not very helpful.  They're kind of like the BBB
ratings--if they indicate there's a problem there is a problem, but if
they say everything's peachy, it is possibly misleading.  Most new home
surveys don't accurately reflect how a home really holds up over the
first few years, which is when the majority of significant problems
surface.  New home buyers are in almost a honeymoon phase, when surveys
are given, and also haven't had time to find problems or learn how
responsive to warranty claims the builder will be.  Also, there ARE
ways to ensure that complaining home buyers are never given the survey
at all.  This was discussed on builderonline.com and/or housingzone.com
some time ago, and people who aren't as kind to the building industry
as those two sites had more biting comments.
