It was a pleasure working with Tony and Harrison. They both conducted themselves in a professional manner. They both took the time to listen, answer and/or clarify any question or concern that I had. I like the way they coordinated with my real estate agent Nathan from The Jamie McMartin Group to make the process as smooth as possible. Nathan was also amazing to work with; he too took the time to listen attentively and answer all of my inquiries. I would definitely work with Nathan again and refer him to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home. He is extremely patient, dedicated and ...

Builder (Jack) was awesome! Attentive, helpful, informative. Couldn’t have asked for a better partner in building our home. Sales and design teams very helpful, responsive and attentive. Unfortunately the quality of materials and trades leaves something to be desired. We’ve had electrical issues since we moved in which still aren’t resolved after multiple attempted repair visits. Issue with doors (warped?, multiple broken hinges). HVAC design issues (bedrooms are cooler by 2-3 deg even after return visit by HVAC installer); curious what the temp differences will be in summer time vs. winter.

Great Highland Home Purchase Experience!

We purchased a home in Sandbrock and could not be more pleased with the quality of the construction, ease of doing business and customer care demonstrated by our builder, Glen. The entire experience beginning with Beau in the Sales office and Debbie from Highland Finance was terrific all the way through to closing. We highly recommend this team and Highland Homes for a great home ownership experience. The quality of the construction, fit and finish of the home and customer care demonstrated by this team is outstanding!

GOD completely blessed me with an amazing team in Denise, Lin, Cindy and Jim. These four outstanding professionals went above and beyond in not only guiding me through the craziness of purchasing a home, but they even extended themselves to make sure I had a quality home constructed just for me. I am beyond humbled at their integrity, transparency and support! There are simply no words to ever truly express my gratitude!!!

New Home - Highland Homes

  • Rosharon, TX

Craftsmanship is poor. Quality of build is poor. Contractors are sloppy, framing not straight or flush and bowed requiring heavy warranty work. Walls not fully painted even after final walk through. Flooring scratched. Highland homes full of excuses; example two cabinet drawers touch when fully opened and the response provided was “both drawers shouldn’t be open together”. Unacceptable excuses to get the job completed correctly.

When I first started searching for a home in Texas, I didn't know much about the local housing market. Thankfully, my relatives, who are native Texans and have experience owning new construction homes around the Austin and San Antonio areas, recommended Highland. They like the fact that Highland uses high-quality materials, even for standard features. It was crucial for me since I was building my home from out of state and wouldn't be able to check on the construction frequently. When we finally received our house, my family and I were happy with the outcome. Avery, the sales ...

We bought an inventory home in the Bel Air Village from Highland Home. First, Highland Home's craftsmanship is unmatched regardless of which community you go to. We purchased the Ellington floor plan and we really love it. The home purchase process was very seamless. We have been in the house for about two months and haven't had any major issues. The first issue we encountered was that the house wasn't heating up and it was very cold at night but Miguel was very helpful and sent us the right contact for it to get fixed quickly.

Going into our first home purchasing experience, Nick our builder really made us feel welcomed and well informed. He really went over every single detail of the home with us and addressed any concerns we had. Leading up to and after purchasing our home he's been very responsive on any concerns and definitely had everything taken care right away for us. I'd definitely reccomend Nick and Highland to any of my friends and family because of the great experience we had.

I do love the Dorset townhome but there were some issues like shower and toilet backing up because a test ball was left in the plumbing. Roof leaking after a couple of days of rain. These were the worst problems. All others were minor. When I purchased my last home I received a manual with detailed information on my home. Take note Highland.

Me and my family had to relocate to Texas, and we had a ton of anxiety as well as concerns about how quickly we can move into a new home. However, we worked with a local realtor and they identified a location in Rockwall where a house was due to be completed in December. We reached out to the agent, and she was very accommodating and connected with the project manager that was working the house. After a couple of months, they were very responsive to all of our requests and assisted us where needed. In addition, if we identified any issues afterwards, they were very responsive and helped us ...

After much research and looking at other new and remodeled homes in the area we found this builder to have exceptional value. All the extra details in building and finishing out the home went above and beyond any other builders in the area. The whole process went so smoothly and we were always kept up to date with progress, delays, and what to expect next in the process. The app is a great resource for buyers and owners!

Cracks on walls after nearly 2 month moving in

Some cracks on the wall and protrusions that occurred throughout the building after a month residing the home. Indicates issue with structure. Wall holding garage door frame on the side cracked. Sloppy paint in areas where there is visible sheen/general unevenness. Even with fixing minor issues and given a period a to review them and have builder go over them it was impossible to catch everything before signing. It's annoying some of the media/home consoles like doorbell and thermometer are service locked and was a pain to configure and gain access to and wifi extender.

Going into buying a home, we were thrilled to choose Highland Homes. After the process we have gone through I would not recommend to anyone based on quality of workmanship and repetitive issues with work being incomplete or done poorly. Overall a very poor experience.
