Lee families bitter over builder [South Florida]
RL Homes goes broke, won’t finish 120 projects
Ken Smith’s family should have celebrated Thanksgiving in their new Lehigh home.
Instead, Smith, his wife, Barbara Pandoff, 35, and boys Adam, 14 and Cayleb, 5, remain in a two-bedroom Fort Myers apartment where mom and dad sleep on a pull-out sofa.
Their $185,000 dream home at 714 Sheldon Ave. in Lehigh Acres is only a skeleton. It was to be ready by last spring. The couple have paid $63,575 on a home that likely won’t be built.
