By Gail H.October 24, 2020New Home Construction$255,000
Contracted with in Nov. 2019. Still waiting for home to be built. Contractor didn't even begin to clear lot until mid July. Many promises given and many broken. Has now left our project with nothing but footers and a stem wall. Is now using Covid-19 excuse to add 15% more money to our agreed contract price and will not go any further until we agree. Has left many others in the same position. He cannot be trusted! Very incompetent!

Our original contract completion date was Oct 2019, then moved to January 20, 2020. We sold our home and moved expecting to be in our new house in 2 weeks. When we arrived our house hasn't been touched since Oct. Throughout the process we were lied to about the progress. Little to no communication unless we initiated. We finally moved into our house May 5th, 2020. There is still a half page of punchlist items that will never be completed.
The construction is great and so is the quality, the process was painful.
We signed a contract with Ron Marra on January 1st 2019, and we’re told it would be a 9 month build. We had already designed the house and paid him $23,000 up front to cover permitting & land surveys. Two and three quarter years later we have nothing but the ICF shell (which he failed to adequately protect before piling dirt up around the base), the roof and metal studs. We even shelled out an additional $18,500+ in cash to help him move forward. And what did we get? Excuse after excuse after excuse for why he couldn’t make progress and a demand for yet another $56,000 for even more! Ron told us in Oct of 2020 that the project had been under priced from the start and admitted he never really reviewed contracts before signing them. Therefore he was “forced” to increase our build by 15 to 25% if we wanted it completed as contracted for. The man is a shyster, a liar and a fraud. In fact, he had defrauded more than 29 couples/families over the last two years leaving most without a home or the hard earned money they paid him. I wouldn’t recommend Marra Construction or their re-branded company Florida I F Builders, LLC to built a dog house! Subs won’t work for them and he doesn’t pay the people who DO work on his projects. Steer clear of Ron Marra Construction and Florida ICF Builders. Check out ALL their reviews here, on Google and on their social media accounts. The only good reviews they have were written by employees (who no longer have jobs). Choose better … choose anyone but a Marra in SW Florida!
