Meritage is my favorite of the "big box builders” in Tucson. I use this term for any large scale builder who builds neighborhoods over 100+ homes. Builders like these can get a bad reputation for putting up homes very quickly and cutting corners but I don't find this to be the case with Meritage. I've had multiple buyers purchase Meritage homes and all are very happy with the homes that have held up well over time. My inspector has even commented how well built Meritage homes are!

There are neighborhoods in Marana, Vail, Sahuarita, East Tucson, and Southwest Tucson. One aspect of Meritage that I really appreciate is that they are very straight forward with their pricing and design packages. Many other builders offer a starting price and once you go to the design center to pick out your counter tops, backsplash, etc, the price jumps significantly!

But with Meritage, the price you sign on the contract is the price it stays! Many builders don't include these in their standard home package. This builder typically gives great interest rate incentives and pays partial closing costs for qualified buyers. Down payments for this builder range from 3.5% FHA to 20% conventional.
