Highland Homes Reviews

During the first month I’ve lived in the brand new house. Finished building October 22nd, closed on the house October 24th. 1. Bathroom light stopped working 2. Shelf in pantry fell apart 3. Electrical issues from the front porch plug. Doesn’t work, even after I reset the circuit breaker. 4. Still don’t get mail here OR able to find on maps. 5. The design of the back yard makes it flood. The water drains in the back are not where the water flows through so I just have this big puddle and mud section of my yard. I wonder what’s next.

It was a pleasure working with Nelli & Orion at Highland Homes. Nelli helped us plan and choose the right options. She also quickly worked through business issues as they surfaced. Orion built us a beautiful home. With the added challenge of being out of state buyers, he did an excellent job keeping us informed on the progress of our home. He has been very responsive to minor items that surfaced during the walk through and orientation. We are very pleased with our new home

This builder has so much potential because there is a good product that could come if the building team took our home seriously in their work. The building team did not walk us through home building as it should have been done so many things were missed and even done incorrectly due to lack of proper oversight. I often voiced concern that I need more information prior to having meetings to decide on things but would not get the information I need prior to or even in the meeting. The building team should have walked us line by line what each category is and meant and not brushed over anything or asked in a general section do you see anything here you want. We are not building professionals. After move in our concerns were brushed off time and time again until I had to provide proof of other homes that I would go visit during their construction that had items we were told were correct (but weren’t) or couldn’t be done (but we’re done elsewhere). Our floor plan is so beautiful but the lack of care has caused this to be very stressful once we were in the home and finding out things and not getting the help we need. ... More

From my experience (first and the LAST) with Highland homes is that they used very very cheep materials. we moved in little over a month now, the master bedroom closet where we hang clothes fell off with the metal bar, on the other side the brackets bending down and the wood piece coming off the wall. both garage doors making scary noise when goes up. kitchen entry door from garage always hits the pantry doors, also highland painted the door hinges. first of all I believe using dead cheep materials and poor supervision caused these issues,

My family and I encountered a great experience during the purchase of our new home. From the start of the process to the end everyone on the team was very helpful.

Not very happy with the selection at the Design Center.

We had the best experience our building team was outstanding. Would do it all over again. Thank you, Highland particularly Darren and Dexter.

My wife lived in another state and Highland Homes made the buying process easy and pleasant. The choice of home layouts, building materials and attention to detail were excellent. We are very pleased with the outcome of our forever home and the beautiful community we now reside in. Thanks Highland Homes

i have noticed many cracks in my home mainly at the window corners. they gave me a colour but still its brand new home. there should not be even one spot to criticize. door locks were all loose, door lock is not aligned properly, if you call them for repair they show in time.

I'm very happy with my new home from Highland Homes. There were a few issues, but Monica and Ryan were always available to help resolve them. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was fixed.

Highland homes has been a great experience from the beginning to the end. Let’s start off from the beginning Sheryn our “sales counselor” has made me and my wife feel very welcomed and has helped us become first time homeowners! After closing, the “Construction Manager” Matt and his team have been helping us and it’s been all hands on deck, making sure that everything is working properly at our home and if something isn’t up to standard he will get it corrected! These little things are very appreciative, and I thank Highland Homes for having these type of employees to make our experience that much easier. Thank you Highland! ... More

Quality build. Construction manager does a poor job with following up with communication and misses details in every single email exchange. Construction manager is nice. He tells the buyer he is available for questions/concerns, but does not actually follow through with a quality level of responsiveness. Outright ignores some topics in emails. Issues/agreed upon repairs would persist for weeks and I had to keep asking up until the day before closing. Sales counselor was consistently excellent, responsive and proactive. I would give her five stars.

Do your research regarding EVERY home builder, the craftsmanship, the integrity, the build and do not just go off beautiful model homes or beautiful, new communities. Do your research on WHO you can expect living in a brand new area, try to avoid sales talk at all times and be your own salesperson / get a team you personally trust who will have your best interest at heart. Build with a company who builds fairly, prices fairly even if it is more than you want it to be, but focus on all the small details, quality, the different crews and how they treat your property, and any and all members who you have to deal with along the way making sure you state your requirements and expectations. Don't let too much time go by wasted without a lack of responses, handing things poorly with communication, quality, and dealing with non-English speaking individuals who will only make it stressful for you and the environment. Document everything, take pictures of everything, and if your budget is being overstretched, consider going with another reputable, high-quality, more designer so you can actually get what you want and what you expected from the beginning. LOCATION and area is everything, and who is all going to live in your community. Keeping in mind HOA will not do much nor help much at all even though you pay them each month - they are only there to ensure the community looks pretty, stays uniformed and has events to celebrate. ...

Tim, the on site sales rep was extremely knowledgeable and will always take your call to answer any last minute questions. Carter our most recent superintendent has been a pleasure to work with. Great team!

Lane, our builder is fantastic!

Well built home, but there are several incidents of "cosmetic damage" that isn't covered under warranty, particularly regarding interior of cabinetry.

From sales to build Highland has come through for us. Building a home can be very stressful for a buyer. We appreciate the staff for all of their patience and getting us to the finish line with delivery of a beautiful place we get to call home. Thank You!

Enjoy working with Mike and Makenna. Very responsive. We're having some minor issues with the house now and Makenna is getting them addressed. Appreciate the Highland Team Elyson @ 80ft section.

The over all experience was good,

Zero complaints about the customer service. Everyone we interacted with during purchase and the build process was phenomenal. Our grievances are tied to the quality of materials, workmanship and the lack of QC. Our expectations were high after seeing HH’s model homes across several different communities. The house they built us definitely did not measure up to those expectations.

Stellar experience from beginning to end, and continue today. We had a warranty request for a tripping breaker and they fixed it in less than a week, no questions asked.

The experience was great and easy every highland associate was professional and kind great to work with. I love my purchase and the neighborhood thanks again

Everyone from day one was amazing, could not ask for a better home buying experience.

Solid and knowledgeable staff in build process.

Our first point of contact with Jay in Meridiana was pleasurable. He was straightforward, attentive to our needs, a good listener, patient, always respond with promptness, knowledgeable, always went beyond what we asked, no hassle, no pressure. He responded with a quick yes to all our offers. Our experience from the new home consultant (Jay), Nick construction manager (was ok), to the closing table was seamless. No hiccups, no underlying issues, and no surprises. Excellence was on display. Jay and the title company exceeded our expectations as a third time home owner. We wish Highland Homes offered a sample paint kit! ... More
