Drees Homes Reviews in Cincinnati, OH

We love harmony bluffs we have a beautiful view of the lake and wild life.

Everyone on my Drees Home building team was Great. I was treated very well. The craftsmanship of my Home was second to none. The quality of materials used from my selections are excellent..

Overall, the home buying process was great. The Market Manager was very helpful and insightful. The Building Manager was very helpful and responded in a timely manner. The quality of workmanship should be reviewed during the home building process in a more frequent way.

All of the people we worked with were very good, professional and responsive to us. David, in sales, and Michael, the construction supervisor, were excellent. The house turned out beautiful and completed timely. There was no pressure in the buying process or selection of items. Their showroom is great.

Lawn maintenance was not good as need to reseed the backyard lawn within one month after moving in. There are medium size rocks and two very big sized rocks in the backyard.

Wish they would have paid a little more attention to detail . Especially for the coast . But overall I’m happy .

I am concerned about drop off from porch to patio which is dangerous but manager tells me it is up to code also no handrail by existing step that was untreated also dangerous

I have so much love for our new home but there are things. That the builder did or missed that now that I’m living in the home just make me feel the value for every dollar spent is not equal. The paint quality absolutely stinks I’ve only been in the home 2 months and it’s terrible everywhere. If you have kids it’s going to suck. So I’m aware that after drywall touch up I’m stuck paying to repaint with better paint. The electrical work is absolutely terrible I’m finishing a room downstairs myself as I have the skill set and I work in electrical utility. They literally rammed all the electrical circuits through a single knock out in the panel and no organizing of the wires at all. When my home failed the framing inspection the electricians pulled the wires back out of the Joist and upon returning the wires they just tacked them up to the underside of the joist. Just terrible workmanship. This is just a few of the things that I don’t feel I got the value for the money I spent. I would have to say overall though we live our home and neighbors and neighborhood. ... More

We were treated well by the Drees staff, just disappointed on the quality of the interior drywall work given the price of the home.

The purchase of the home was good. Drees needs better quality review in the building process. They should listen to their Builders, when they have problems with the contractors. Need better contractors to do better workmanship

Waiting for 3 months for a repair to squeaky subfloor in upstairs hallway.

We have had a good experience just some issues with water leaking and haven’t had as much help with that as we should have for a 3 month old house.

Everyone was very pleasant and helpful.

Pretty nice home buying experience and I am happy with the home

Our builder was great to work with. He kept us up to date on the progress during the build and addressed any questions or concerns we had in a very timely manner.

Great follow up process after purchase

We have already submitted a very detailed review to Drees Homes. In a nutshell, we love the construction, the process, the communication from Nick; the house is solidly built and there are hardly any issues (cosmetic issues will pop up but no construction issues). Beverly did well at the design center. For most part, Kristi in sales did well as well. Tammy and John in customer-care are on top of all of our needs. Financing process was smooth; the execution was horrible. Few areas where things should improve: 1. We had requested for dual-zone dual-HVAC system. We were told flat-out that Drees does not offer that option. We were sold a dual-zone single-HVAC solution. Nearing the end of construction, we saw the house across the street was installed with dual-zone dual-HVAC system. We were blatantly misled and sold what sales wanted to sell. 2. In addition to the Design Center options, let us know we can purchase items from outside vendors (Menards, Home Depot, Floor/Tile shops, etc.) and give us allowances so we can truly make this our home with items that were more relatable to us. 3. Steve at 1st Equity did well during the process. Unfortunately, FEM did not manage its partner Huntington Bank well and we had one of the worst experiences EVER on closing day. Choose better, more reliable partners. 4. Lay out the process of the closing day as it is an important day for Drees and buyers. We had people walking in/out of the room without introductions or why they were there, including whom or what they represented. Few fixes and Drees will provide a solid experience! ... More

Beautiful Market Home we purchased. If we had time we would have built but overall the house is great. Market Homes have some TLC that has to occur once you get into the home and notice things we are hopeful at our check in they will be making things right.

Drees Homes is a trustable and reliable builder, they value their customer and strive to make it right if there are any issues in the building process and offer good support after moving in.

Overall we are very happy. Didn’t like $400 water bill we received for first month—due to non-stop watering of lawn.

The process was fairly smooth but did not like using First Equity. I thought Peggy was short and rude at times and made the experience less than pleasant. The house itself is nice and the customer service is outstanding. I would refer a friend if they decided to build a home. Like every investment a partnership must be formed.

The quality of the construction of my new home surpassed my expectations. From the beginning of the process everything was smooth and in order, towards the end the responsiveness to questions slacked off. Overall I am impressed with Dree's.

Debra was great and answered all our questions during the purchase process. Really felt that she was working to insure we were getting what we wanted. During the build Mike was always available and communicated weekly. He addressed any issues the best he could within Drees guidelines. I feel Drees could have fine tuned the selection process and added a couple additional options.

Great sales rep, construction colleagues, overall good experience

We were happy with the building experience overall. Positives are quality and build process. Some opportunity on time frame promised vs delivered, Issues with the lot lines vs what was actually presented.
