Drees Homes Reviews

Mike, our Project Manager, is fantastic! He was honest, helpful and kept us informed every step of the way!

I would rate my overall experience with Drees as a 10. The reason for this rating is due to the professionalism, openness and genuine experience I have/had with everyone I have come in contact with. As a homeowner purchasing your first home and building it from the ground up, can be overwhelming on all fronts. As a builder, Drees truly made it less daunting and provide experience, knowledge and wisdom to overcome some issues and ensure we stayed on target for closing. The reason for the two four stars is due to follow through and details. As one who is detail orient it is hard to overlook some of the simple details that went undone and had to be redone or fixed. One might say that is a reflection on Drees because of the contractors they use, but I say it is the contractor as well. Drees could hire the best contractors out there, but they can't control who the contractor sends into your home (mine you they are not just contracted to your home especially when they are new builds) to do the work. They have been very attentive about making sure they come back out and make the corrections. With that, value is based on quality and workmanship. I love my Drees homes. The functionality and floorplan. It is my forever and dream home in spite of. Thank you Drees for your commitment and dedication to building a home that I don't just like, but love. ... More

We fell in love with the floor plan options, style and modern feel of Drees Homes. We felt the quality, plus the Customization and design options, filled our desire to building a home.

Great home buying experience! Extremely professional people at all levels and departments! We recommend Drees homes without hesitation!!

My experience has been wonderful. Great professionals were in every step of the construction of our house. Always willing to help. Thank you all very much for your great work.

The open floor plan is very good, comfortable, practical and modern. I loved that I could choose the colors, flooring and the kitchen cabinets package. The selling team was great, very professional and always responded in timely manner if I had any questions. The two months check was done professionally on time and the issues were fixed fast. Very happy with my purchase and would recommend Drees to others.. Thank you!

Overall, 4.5 stars. We were very lucky to have an incredible Market Manager, Designer, and Builder. Best in the business! Upper management for Drees falls short of listening to their team and understanding the real issues in the field and the customers concerns.

With any new home construction, we had small issues. And, we have had some very minor after close issues. The people at Drees from the on site manager to the warranty people have been there for us every step of the way.

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..

All in all, the building process was great. I enjoyed the opportunity to work with the builder and review building process unhindered which was great. The quality of the materials used was good and reputable Brands. The one thing I was disappointed in was the Quality of Craftmanship during the building process. A lot of mistakes and do overs that could have been avoided if there was a full-time superintendent during building process to review drawings and related structure to be sure work crew understood (in Spanish) the trade activities for the day. This would have prevented poor workmanship and mistakes in structure. Then as home progress into the finishing stages the placement of protective care over permeant fixtures, moldings, flooring, doors, cabinets, hardware to prevent damage and replacement of these items upon completion of home prior to final walk-through inspection. There were several times during the building process had I not been able to come on a day to day bases certain items would have been completed and then either modified (if possible) or tore up to be corrected; due to lack of communication and understanding of appropriate tasked trade. There were some trades that were very good at their skill; but these were few. Would I build again with Drees----YES; they provide a quality appealing home astatically outside as well as inside. Drees exterior options and interior options provide the breadth and depth and flexibility of injecting custom items and changes outside and inside that personalize the home to us. thanks ... More

Had a good journey through out the build process

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.

We had a great sales person: Suzanne was wonderful with changes we wanted and always pleasant and tesponsive. We had a wonderful general contractor/superintendent, Michael Carroll. He was very responsive to any questions or changes needed. Unfortunately, he was brought in after work was already being performed. Mike had to troubleshoot the problems. He was wonderful and positive anytime we worked with Mike. However some of the workmanship is not quality work. It takes 5 min to get hot water to our kitchen faucet, with very low water pressure as well. We also have a large crack in our ceiling that was repaired before we moved in. You could tell where the ceiling was patched. Now the crack is back after 2 months and part of ceiling coming down. We are reaching out to get this resolved, but feel there is a structural issue. The white caulk with green siding looks terrible, not done very professionally. ... More

Our experience with Drees Homes was great! Zen was our builder and he did a fantastic job as our project manager. There were things that were not addressed in our final walk-through, finishes that were not exactly to our liking, but overall our experience with this group was positive. This was our first time buying a house, so this gave us insight into what we will need to do for next time!

Drees Homes did a great job building our home. With supply chain shortages they explored every option to get our house built in teh time that was promised and at teh price we were told. Debbie and Kris were great to work with and I highly recommend building with Drees.

Drees home are beautiful and spacious! This is my second one and I would build with them again!

Everything has been good except slow taking care of a few problems

Overall we are pleased with our new build by Drees. The process to purchase and responsiveness have been helpful especially as first time homeowners!

Outstanding job - great attention to detail.

The sales agent was very good and responsive to my requests.

Purchasing a home through Drees, was a Very Good Experience. The person that made the difference for us was Kenton. We went through a lot & he was there with us all the way. We went through several companies, and not once did he abandon us. God Blessed us with Kenton. You Need More People Like Kenton, that Really Looks out for the Customer.

Very quick to respond and fix issues

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.
