No accountability anymore
To the editor:
I would like to begin by saying, there is a lot I don’t know when it comes to government regulations. I have worked in the medical field for almost 30 years and that is wherein my expertise lies. I moved to this area 2.5 years ago and bought a new home in Cornelia. It is my understanding that I was supposed to have a one year builders warranty. There have been multiple issues with my home and over the course of that year, I sent certified letters to the builder three times and all three times, the letters were returned.
I even contacted the closing attorney to verify the address of the builder. I was given another address to “try” which turned out the same, with the letter being returned to me. During this process I discovered the builder is building homes under multiple company names. Since that time, I have most recently spent just under $1,000 getting the ceiling in my garage fixed.
Now I am having issues with the gutters, shingles not being extended enough to route water into the gutters and wood rot. Keep in mind, this house was completed the day I purchased it 2.5 years ago. I am currently in the process of getting estimates and there is no telling what all this is going to cost. I am an older widow and chose to purchase a new home so I would not have all these issues.
Everyone I have contacted with Habersham County all tell me the same thing, that if the one year warranty is expired I have no recourse with the builder. Could someone please tell me how this can be acceptable? This is a new home and I have been spending money that I should not have to spend. How is it that there is no accountability, builders can build homes with such poor quality and why the county/builders association is allowing this kind of builders to build and sell homes here.
If you have any advice I would be open to hearing it and if not, thanks for listening.

Thanks to EMS responders
To the editor:
Just want to say thanks to Habersham first responders for their quick response to my call about a neighbor who had taken a very bad spill last week –. 911, EM’s, fire department and sheriff’s office personnel responded quickly and all were professional and kind.

Secret regimes in power
To the editor:
Thank you, Elon Musk, for buying Twitter. With your honest approach to news, I am learning how the “3 Cs” applies to our current administration – corrupt, criminal and crooked.
We are headed for Third World status if we allow this administration to continue downgrading our country for the benefit of China. If you doubt the level of hatred for Trump in the Democrat Party, watch your TV this week; they have, yet again, arraigned Trump with another indictment. The writing is on the wall, “they are deathly afraid of him running for President in 2024.”
S.O.S… The U.S.S. Patriots is slowly sinking, and needs immediate help from red ships. We are being primed for Communism under China’s regime; they have given our President mega millions for years under the guidance of George Soros. If you don’t know this man, look up the history of Jews in Nazi Germany, and you will find him and his uncle helping the Nazis price vacated property of Jews sent to the gas chambers.
Unelected Soros is the man running our country! Just like Obama, there are men/women entering the Oval Office every day with an agenda for our “President.” They want us to give them total control of our country, like they have done in parts of W. Africa, Cuba, Brazil and Argentina.
In case you haven’t noticed, President Donald J. Trump loves this country. Not convinced? Read two good books this August inside when the temperature reaches 90-plus – “Crimes Against America” by Jeanine Pirro, and Dick Morris’s “The Return.” They also give testimonies to the issue of “who really won the Presidential Race in 2020.” Trump proved his ability to lead during his time in office: 2017–2020. To understand his performance, visit the website of Denise D’Souza , or read his 2018 book, “Death of a Nation,” also a movie.
As for Hunter Biden, he cannot be just excused and sent back home. His desire is to please his father, so is it any wonder he has dulled his days with drugs.
Wake up America, Joe Biden is just the beginning. Let your Congress know we want him impeached for treason for starters.
