We are very happy with our Avalon home and the outstanding quality of construction.

In our experience with Ralph, one of the best and important things we found was how very reliable and responsible he was. He was also available to us if we needed to discuss things along the way.

The follow up after the closing was excellent. The requests were addressed and then solved in a timely manner.

We would not hesitate to have Ralph and Avalon build another home for us in the future.

Sincerely,

Dr. Luis and Sofia Annoni

Dear Ralph,

We have been thoroughly enjoying our new home. It has been three months to the day that we have been here and it really is beginning to feel like home.

At this time we would like to thank you for your sincere integrity and skill as a home builder. We have appreciated your sense of style and precision during and after the construction of our home. You have provided prompt and professional attention to all our inquiries. Building a home is known to be one of the most stressful ordeals in a persons life; but Avalon Building Corporation of Tampa Bay made it an easy and interesting learning experience for our whole family.

There is no doubt that you will continue to grow and prosper through the years.

Sincere gratitude,

 Paul and Marie Amirto

Subject: Letter of Commendation for Sue Lawrence

Dear Mr. Zuckerman:

I am writing this letter 15 months after we moved into our lovely home in Pinecrest Estates in Lutz.  We are extremely happy with our Antigua model home and have received nothing but praise about the design, from floor plan to all of the amenities.

In the initial phase, Sandy, at your model center guided us through all of the steps in a warm, professional and motherly manner.  You are fortunate to have her as your mom.  Also the staff Don and Mary were very helpful.

I still own a home in Los Angeles and will be bi-coastal for the next four years, since I am a semi retired Professor of Graphic Design at California State University Long Beach. During the construction process I made five trips over a year to check on the construction.  I was greeted by your construction supervisors, John, Keith and Guy. All of them were very informative and followed through on every question or concern I had.  I hired my own inspector to inspect each stage of the construction.  The inspector had high praise for your firm initially and that continued throughout the process.

So why did I single out Sue Lawrence for the commendation?  To me Sue was the go-to-person.  Every time there was a problem, Sue solved it.  When I forgot to send in my payments for upgrades, Sue contacted me.  When I needed reassurance that everything would be just fine, Sue was there for me.  My first experience of building a new home was greatly enhanced with Sue Lawrence on the wing in Tarpon Springs.

I highly recommend Avalon Building Corporation to anyone that respects professionalism.

 Best Regards,

Juanity & Archie Boston

Trust is the basis for customer long-term relationships and after working with you, I am confident in saying that you are one of the few professional people, in the building industry, who still earns the trust of your customers. When Sandy told me that you were getting involved in some of  the early contract issues, I sensed that she was secure in knowing you were going to get it resolved and after working with you I understand why she was secure in knowing that you would do the right thing for both the customer and  Avalon. Ultimately it's people like yourself who really establish the good reputation of a company.  It has been a pleasure working with you, I wish you all the success personally and professionally going forward.

Ralph:

Mary and I have been so busy getting settled into our new house, that I neglected to tell you how happy we are with the way it turned out!     It's beautiful, and we really love it.  

I also wanted to tell you how nice it was to work with your team!   Sue Lawrence was so great to work with throughout the entire process.  Guy DeVinney as well.  Their followup after closing has been great too. 

Everyone at Avalon has made this construction process understandable and mostly stress free!  And I'm happy about that.

Thanks again, Ralph for working with us and helping get us into our new home!   I'm sure we'll enjoy it for years to come!

Best regards,

John and Mary Wood

It is a beautiful home which we are planning to retire from.  It turned out to be exactly what we wanted.  We really appreciate the Avalon and all who did hard work to make it happen.  If you need any reference, please do not hesitate to use my name any time.  I will be happy to give the best words.

Thanks Jay Kim

Thank you very much. It has been a very long, hard journey getting our first house, and I am very glad that we chose you and your wonderful team. It's been a pleasure doing business with Avalon. The house turned out better than expected, Thesla is over-joyed, so of course I'm happy too,"happy wife, happy Life". I will be contacting you to build my bigger and better house in the future :-)

Thanks again

Dear Ralph,

We have been in our new Avalon home at Watermark - Seven Oaks for one year now and we love our home.
This is the seventh home we've had built in our lifetime and by far the best experience.

We worked and lived in Washington D.C. and wanted to retire where we lived most of our lives. After meeting with other builders and studying existing home sales, we contracted with Avalon to build our retirement home in Seven Oaks. We loved the floor plan of the Antigua model and the Seven Oaks community. Our previous building experiences had been challenging so we thought our retirement home would be more so, since we lived 900 miles away and only planned on one visit during the building stages. We closed on the home two days after we retired and arrived in Wesley Chapel.

We were pleased with your staff and subcontractors. The only visit prior to the home completion was for a pre-drywall inspection. During this quick visit, we also hoped to meet with the landscaper, the music and cinema group, the granite company, the floor tile company and a home decorator. All of these subcontractors made themselves available to accommodate my tight schedule. Your staff and subcontractors were professional, courteous, and experienced. And they do quality work!

We were also pleased with Guy. He kept us updated on the building progress and emailed photos on a regular basis.
After moving in, the list of items that needed attention during the one year warrantee was limited to a few very minor items that were handled quickly.

I would recommend Avalon Building Corporation without reservation to anyone looking for a quality home builder.

Dear Mr. Zuckerman:

It is coming up on one year since we moved into our new Avalon home in the Seven Oaks Community. I want to let you know how much my family and I are enjoying our home and the community. Avalon delivered on everything it said it would and we are very happy. Anyone that wants to build a great new home in a fun and family oriented community should definitely look at an Avalon Home.

This is the third home I have had built. I must say that nothing ever goes perfect when building a home. There are always that happen that are out of the builder’s control. These include weather, sub contractor delays, material shortages, etc. Even with these obstacles, Avalon delivered and made the process much smoother than our previous two builders. Avalon also responded quickly on the few minor service requests that I had during our warranty period. I must say that a lot of Avalon’s success, for me was due to Sue Lawrence. She is the best person a builder could ever have at doing whatever it takes to make the customer happy. Don’t ever let her leave!

We have had many friends and family come to visit us since my family and I moved in. They all comment on the architecture of our Avalon Antigua home. They love the open floor plan, the art nooks, the coffered ceilings and the obvious attention to detail in the design. Of course, my family and I agree with them 100%. I always have said that when you buy a house it isn’t a home. A home is what you make of it, but what a way to start!

A very satisfied customer,

Jeffery Rosenberg
