You are right about the poor quality. It does not seem to keep the houses from selling though. The house that my husband had the Mexicans pulled in on him looked awful. He got so mad that he went on a different job for this contractor. The Mexicans finished it up. You could tell where his work ended and theirs took over. There was a big difference in quality. The brick on the entryway of the house was bowed to a very obvious degree but this house sold right away. Are people getting so used to sorry construction that they don't even care anymore?
Quality doesn't seem to matter to the average American anymore, IMO.
It is the primary issue for me with anything I purchase.

No, people don't care anymore and do you know why???? because when someone buys a house nowdays, it isn't for the rest of their life so who cares? Unlike our parents generation ours moves from one house to the other to the other etc..
