Builder left homes undone; CEO faces arrest [South Florida]
Alisha Buckingham just wanted a two-story home. At the time, only two home builders in the city offered models with that specification.
Contracting with Avalon Homes, she and dozens of other families learned, was a costly decision.
Avalon collapsed last fall, leaving 50 homes unfinished and dozens of home buyers like Buckingham saddled with mortgages for homes they may never be able to finish building.
“I have no more money. It’s all gone,” said Buckingham, a 32-year-old waitress.
