Over the past 20 years, my family and I have bought and sold 5 new homes due to numerous transfers by my employer. All of our experiences with new home builders have been very positive and the quality of our new homes were all very good, EXPECT for the new home we purchased from Stickel Properites.
I was transferred by my employer to New Jersey in 2011 and we purchased our current home from Stickel Properties in August 2011. At the time of purchase, this was a newly constructed spec home that had been sitting on the market unsold for about a year. This home is over 7,500 square feet and the purchase price was over $1.3 million. Given the size and cost of this home, my family and I were expecting a very well built home, which is consistent with our experience from other homes we purchased in the past that were comparable in size and price. Unfortunately, our experience with this home has been quite the opposite and it is anything but a well built home. The unseen "quality" of this home is more reminiscent of the quality one would see in a starter home.
At the time of purchase, our punch list of repairs exceeded 20 items and it took more than a year (yes, a year!) to fully resolve the open items with the builder's representative. Moreover, during that first year, the builder's representative showed little interest in being responsive to our requests or to stand behind the quality of the home's construction (or lack there of).
Since that first year, here is a list of the problems we have experienced with the home. These problems do not qualify for repair by the builder:
Leaky roof,
Kitchen and bathroom cabinets do not open/close properly anymore,
HVAC system has been repaired several times. The system is too small to effectively heat/cool the size of this home,
Electrical fuses blow out because the capacity of the electrical unit is too small for the size of this home,
Poor insulation in the walls and no insulation in the floors. In fact, some rooms are too cold to occupy in the winter or too warm to occupy in the summer. In addition, people walking on the 2nd floor can be heard in the basement!,
Water pressure and temperature is negatively effected when more than two people shower at the same time. The water pump and heater are too small for the size of this home.
And what is our latest problem you ask? Substantially all of the exterior wood trim on the front side and garage side of the house, including the soffits and fascia boards, are rotted and have to be repaired and painted. A relatively new home requires a complete redo of the front and side exterior trim! We called the builder representative for advice and he showed ZERO remorse and offered nothing to assist in repair. The estimate for repair and painting is $29,000. I repeat - this is a relatively new home that requires $29,000 in exterior trim repair!
Overall, I would never recommend this builder to anyone. It's clear to me Stickel Properties does not value feedback from this current homeowner nor did they build this home with quality materials. Buyer beware!

First that I didn't have someone coming in with false alarms to take unnecessary, costly measures, and also to know that this historic building is doing so well. He complemented the drainage and masonry that had been performed on the basement to deal with rising water table, OLD stone walls etc, and informed me that powder post beetles cannot exist in very low humidity, indicating a further need for dehumidifiers. He then asked about and inspected the crawl space, which to his horror had standing water. We already have someone contracted to deal with that, which of course he indicated was VERY important (and not even a job he would reap any benefits from!) He simply suggested a spray around the perimeter of house and barn, just twice a year and I am DEFINITELY having him come back for that. A great guy, like one would expect from his many ratings!

As a handyman, he had always showed up when he said he would and completed everything he did satisfactorily. I had come to trust him.
Regarding the garage: Several professionals, including a building inspector I hired to give me a written report, told me the concrete slab the garage rests on should have been partially sunken in the ground and that it might crack if I put my car in it. Almost a year passed before I dared make the attempt last week. The cement ramp is so steep that my car scraped on the underside and I backed the car out after entering only partially. Now that I know I can?t get my car in, regardless of the stability of the foundation, I am hiring someone to build a new ramp.
When the garage was ?finished,? in September ?11, after I had just handed him the last half of my payment, Mr. Crook said I might want to call him and have him put gutters on the roof. I hadn?t thought of gutters, figuring the garage had been completed thoroughly, and later hired someone to install gutters and cleats to keep chunks of ice/snow from falling. He had said he would add support under the two back doors, which are 6? above the ground, to hold up metal plates that stick out over the foundation, and that wasn?t done. The electricity for the garage had been hooked up to my dishwasher in the house, and I had to hire an electrician to put in a new circuit breaker. Also, Mr. Crook had told me that in N.C., I wasn?t required to consult with the building department, but I later found out this wasn?t true--for any construction including electricity, the building has to be inspected and follow approved codes. (As a new arrival to NC, I hadn?t known this.) He was supposed to install the 2 solar lights I purchased, but never did this either.
When the garage was built, the foundation of the garage slid out when the cement was poured and one side of my garage sticks out beyond the foundation. The OSB on the garage interior moved when the foundation slid and molding had to be added to cover the gaps along the ceiling. (Mr. Crook did point these things out to me and covered the cost of the moldings himself.) I paid Mr. Crook $16,200 for a garage that currently can only function as a shed.
Regarding the porch: I hired an electrician make on outlet on the porch, which Mr. Crook had said he would do. The steps leading to the porch, which Mr. Crook originally built, had to be rebuilt: the treads were of different sizes; there was only 1 stringer for the 6? treads and it was cracked; posts supporting the handrails were loose. I paid Mr. Crook $2,200 for work done on the porch. Since I am not including the dimensions of the porch or details on what was done, it no doubt is impossible for you to tell whether the price was reasonable.
I just spoke with Mr. Crook on the phone, hoping he would agree to cover the cost of a new ramp, but he hung up on me before I could talk to him about this. He warned me not to make this post, saying he had spoken with his attorney and he told me I would regret it. Then he hung up while I was speaking.
Wow! This company, and especially Yuriy, knows the true meaning of customer service. Yuriy was Project Mgr 7 years ago when RIGA installed a beautiful new roof on my house. My town screwed up and never closed the permit, and I needed Yuriy to help me resolve the issue as my house was going to...

FAQs for barndominium building projects in Pottersville, NJ
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
The average cost to remodel a garage is around $18,000, ranging from $1,500 to $50,000, depending on size, materials, location, and other factors like plumbing and electrical. Garage remodels that include changing the roof and walls add significant expenses to the project. Plus, you can expect to pay about $1,400 for the building conversion permits. For a simple remodel, like painting interior walls and recoating the garage floor, it will cost about $2 to $5 per square foot.
