INC. SETTLEMENT /SETTLEMENT 702 3 to 703 Commission paid ai Settiement 9,000.00; Ge Initial contract signed with Brevard Builders Group (hereinafter referred to as BBG) on December 29, 1999 (Attachment “A”). Subsequent. contract signed May 20, 2000 (Attachment “B”’). Final contract signed June 20, 2000 with a total value of $152,075 (deposit fee and balance) (Attachment “C”). BBG assigned build to Park Avenue Custom Home Builders on March 15, 2000 (we did not sign this agreement and were not aware of it until May 23, 2001 when it was requested and received from our lender) (Attachment “D’). In-work plans that were not signed off by us were submitted for permitting.on or about July 15, 2000. Brevard County rejected them due to software causing misalignment of much of the left-hand side of the drawing. BBG draftsman Rich Normyle worked with us to correct the plans, which were signed by us on August 16, 2000. After being resubmitted, Brevard County issued Permit number C0102342 on September 27, 2000. Ground was broken in October 2000. Rough-in plumbing and electrical problems were pointed out by owners and corrected. Downdraft piping and gas lines for cooktop, clothes dryer, and hot water tank were missing; we had to ask them to install before pad was poured. Only the gas line for the cooktop was installed. (NOTE: part of the adjacent lot had been cleared in error and the house had originally been staked out halfway on adjacent lot.) Pad was poured on December 5, 2000. At this point we realized our extended ledge in the garage was missing. The block went up on or about December 13, 2000. The hurricane straps were installed on or about December 21, 2000. The trusses started to go up on January 3, 2001. At this time we noticed our stub-out for a wet bar on the enclosed porch was missing. The stub-out could not be added as there would be no way to add a drainage pipe without breaking up the pad. We also noticed that our ceilings in the foyer, dining: room, great room and enclosed portion of the patio were gr 4” flat instead of vaulted as specified in the site plans. : When we questioned Jorge Granados, Site Superintendent, he responded that they probably couldn't be engineered. (For the record, when we contacted the Trusswood Truss company on 2/12/01, we were told that the plans they used to build our trusses were dated 4/20/2000). Jorge Granados also stated on 12/8/2000 a garden window we had specified wceuldn’t pass inspection due to Florida Code, that a regular window would have to be installed and if we wanted to change it out later that was our prerogative. He also stated he anc Bill ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT EXHIBIT # PAGE? OF EXHIBIT. fe PAGE 958 carmen Thompson would notate that for future use because they didn’t know about this particular type of window. Regarding same window, on 12/10/2000 Jorge Granados said the window supplier also said the window wouldn’t pass code and I would need to install 2 smaller ones. We-told him to install a regular window. On or about January 6, 2001 the framers started work. They neglected to install extra insulation we had paid for which was notated on our addendum sheet and we pointed it out to them. (NOTE: this extra insulation was later installed). On January 8, 2001 we discovered that the plans the framers were using were dated July 2000, in which the left side of our house was moved over. This also accounted for them not installing the extra insulation originally. We immediately notified Park Avenue Superintendent, Jorge Granados, Park Avenue owner Bill Thompson, and BBG owner Charlie Wheeler and were assured things would be taken care of. Framing was finished with our own personal set of final plans dated 8/2000. The windows started to be installed on January 10, 2001 and we noticed they looked odd, but said nothing. The front door - would not fit due to the opening being engineered wrong and the concrete and steel header was demolition sawed out to make the door fit (for the record, this was not the door BBG stated as standard; it was a Park Avenue standard and not one we wanted. We had to call the supplier ourselves to have this door picked up and pick out the correct. door). “Other smaller issues continued to arise. It was on February 5, 2001 when we realized that the front windows and flat ceilings were from old plans (circa April 2000 and/or July 2000) and we stopped construction on 2/7/01 until a solution could be reached. After a number of fruitless attempts (2/5/01, 2/12/01, 2/14/01, 2/21/01) we finally met with Charlie Wheeler of BBG on March 3, 2001 and presented him with a detailed list of defects in our house (Attachment “E”) (Bill Thompson was not available for this meeting). (NOTE: We ordered our lender to stop further disbursements from our account on 2/28/01.) We met with Charlie Wheeler again on 3/17/01 to discuss our list of defects and drop off copies of all our notice to owners and liens (again, Bill Thompson was not available). It became apparent that BBG and Park Avenue Custom Homes had no intention of correcting the defects in our house and we retained counsel on March 29, 2001 (Charles Schillinger, Esq.) On April 6, 2001 he sent our notice of defects to Bill Thompson, formally requesting a response and received none. On April 11, 2001 he sent both Charlie Wheeler and Bill Thompson a letter REGHRES ARS, G_ feb and thorough EXHIBIT # PAGE Gog. vo ae one exuipit___/2_ pace_SS% accounting of the construction of our home. Again, no response was received from either party. Finally, on April 23, 2001 letters of termination were sent to BBG and Park Avenue Custom Home Builders (Attachment’s “FE”, “G”, & “H%). Pursuant to the requirements of this complaint, and to the requirements of finishing our home, we are in the process of getting assessments and bids from other contractors. Emr Construction (license #BC2810) has given us a bid of $94,000 to complete the build. (NOTE: some items that were a ‘ standard in our contract with BBG and Park Avenue [i.e. solid surface countertops, window treatments and sprinkler system], were not bid to contain costs.) This bid of $94,000 is $30,000 more than is left in our account. Mr. Thompson has withdrawn $78,375.29 from our lender, leaving us $64,224.71 with which to finish our house. Additionally, we now have $24,320.59 in liens (with interest accruing monthly) and another $8,698.31 of bills owed to sub- contractors on supplies and/or ‘services who have not liened us to date. We have positively identified expenditures of ' $28,788.20 (this does not include the framers and block masons as they have not been identified to us). Of that money, $17,500 in undisclosed commissions went to BBG; $9,000 was not disclosed to us before being put in our closing paperwork and $6,500 was also not revealed to us and paid by Park Avenue Custom Homes Builders to BBG, we can only assume out of the builder’s draws. This leaves up to $49,587.09 of our money unaccounted for, in addition to the $24,320.59 in liens and $8,698.31 in unpaid bills. The liens are for supplies and services used early on in the building process, such as concrete and lumber. Mr. Thompson must have known that these bills were extremely overdue and yet he signed notarized draw affidavits that stated all lienors had been paid in full (Attachment “I”). This is a violation of FPL Statute 713.35, regarding making false documents (Attachment “J”). Additionally, three of the four falsified draw affidavits were notarized by Kathy Hendren Thompson, the wife of Bill Thompson (a violation of Notaries Public, Chapter 117.107 Prohibited Acts, Subsection (11)). . Additionally, at the time Kathy Hendren Thompson was notarizing these falsified documents, she was a corporate officer of Park Avenue Custom Home Builders, thereby making her a party to the financial transactions of the company and violating Notaries Public, Chapter 117.107 Prohibited Acts, Subsection (12) (Attachments “K”, “LY, & “M’). — awd MY ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAIN EXHIBIT # PAGE Do terete nce ile, [ev PAGE, S60 EXHIB —— [i e oeiene We feel that Bill Thompson and Charlie and Kathy Wheeler, through their mishandling of the creation and distribution of plans, exhibited negligent behavior that led to the building defects that originally caused us to suspend construction. We feel that Charlie ‘and Kathy Wheeler acted as contractors without proper license in signing of the original and subsequent Construction Agreements (Attachment “N’). We feel that Charles and Kathy Wheeler failed to properly disclose commissions of $9,000 and $6,500 associated with the construction of our home. We feel that ' Bill Thompson falsified documents (Attachment “O”) in order to illegally obtain money from our lender. We feel Kathy Hendren Thompson illegally notarized those falsified documents. We.feel Bill Thompson mishandled monies which were to be used for our home (Attachment “P”), and illegally co-mingled monies from our account toward the building of other homes, as he builds greater than 10 homes per year —tattechment—“o"}, and as such is legally prevented from doing so. Coincidentally, during the same time frame, Bill and Kathy Thompson purchased a new ocean-going fishing boat, motor home, two trucks, and a new car. Additionally, Bill and Kathy Thompson, along with Jorge Granados and his wife, took vacations to Hawaii and Colorado. We are Attaching registered liens (Attachments “R”, “S”, “Tt, “U”, and “V’) against our property. We are also attaching a proposal from Emr Construction as required on the complaint form (Attachment “W”). We are attaching a copy of the check, which was our deposit to BBG (Attachment “X”). Also attached are printouts from the DBPR website showing license numbers of William D. Thompson, Charles Edward Wheeler, and Kathleen Jo Wheeler (Attachment “Y”). Finally, we have attached an excerpted page from a current BBG Construction Agreement, (Attachment “Z2”) which discloses they will receive a 7% commission for marketing purposes.
