Highland Homes Reviews

I’ll start with the positives and say the ladies (Debbie & Lindsay) in the sales office were amazing. Best experience we had when it comes to home-buying. They were on top of their game and pleasant to work with. Doug Dreiman was great and continues to answer our questions three months after closing. However, we’re disappointed with our home experience after closing. Most service requests have been fulfilled in a timely manner. However, there are details in and outside our home that lack quality and remain to be resolved. We flagged issue before closing that were told were resolved but were ignored. WE have trusses sticking out on our roof and told that’s just what it is. The white trim boards in our home were poorly installed with nails and blemishes that are noticeable. We had a used dishwasher in our home that was registered to someone else, were told no reason to cover up the cracked grout on the foundation because it will crack, and found a broken shower rod in a restroom but was told it’s better to buy one ourselves. Three months into our home and we’re still waiting on items we flagged before closing. I would highly recommend not to close or sign till the house is to your liking. I would also recommend hiring your own inspector, not sure if Highland resolved issues on their inspection report. ... More

Lot of plumbing issue, I had lot of high expectations from Highland homes.

The loan process was very smooth and easy.

We moved from out of state and were not able to visit during the majority of the build process. Lula and Javier both made this process seem easy and worry-free. After living in the home a couple months now, we are amazed by the quality of the build and still haven’t been able to find any issues. Every minor detail that needed to be corrected before we moved in was done so in time to keep the build right on schedule. Our next home will be build with Highland Homes!

congrats to our Sr. Construction Manager, we was really awesome.

I came to Highland Homes after I heard great reviews and rave about them. My buying experience was good. Very transparent and prompt team. My experience with quality of material is horrible. I literally have issues with everything. From tiles to flooring. Paint to cabinet quality. Cleaning was off when we entered. From day 1 onwards I am chasing someone to fix issues and its more than 2 months now and issues still exist. Its my weekly task to log complaints and coordinate with multiple people to fix issues. Very bad experience on my first home.

Highland homes did a fantastic job on our new home, responding quickly to questions and resolving issues quickly.

Our overall buying experience was good. We were thoroughly informed about our options throughout the process and our sales rep always handled himself professionally, being plenty patient with any of our inquiries. Where Highland Homes becomes “just another builder out to make a quick buck” is with the integrity that follows moving in. Every builder misses things, but we figured that given Highland Home’s reputation, things would be different when it came to home repairs. We were wrong. We have been dealing with an issue concerning one of our appliances tripping a breaker. Initially, we were told by our project manager that Highland Homes has been experiencing this due to a new code being passed. They sent an electrician and he “assessed” both the dryer and their breaker. They “swapped out” a breaker and left it at that. The dryer continues to trip the breaker and they have now pivoted to asking that we either replace a wire on an appliance that was previously working perfectly, or better yet, have that wire completely removed, making it a fire hazard. The luster of being a new homeowner via Highland Homes has quickly faded. So be warned if you expect them to live up to their word. It truly is a shame that people operate this way, especially after such a meaningful purchase, but these companies are always ultimately out to make a profit and look the other way when held accountable.

My experience in purchasing a home with HighLands homes has been exceptional with the Sales rep. at WoodForest however not so well since the workmanship and quality build has been very poor and am highly dissatisfied since the many sub contractors hired on lacked experience, quality build, workmanship, poor judgment. These contractors did not care about their job, they just came in to do the bare minimum and left to goto the next job. I monitored my home build daily. I would come on site over see the build, take pictures on the progress of the build and saw so many mistakes these contractors were doing, some of which these contractors should have been fired on the spot. ...

Do not trust, don't sign documents until they finish the final walk through issues

no comment, not happy with my finished product

Wish the builder Joseph would take care of the things in my home that was supposed to be fixed before I closed. My cabinets, floor and stairs has yet to be fixed. After I closed I was pretty much on my own. Sprinkler company also still hasn’t came out.

This was my 2nd Highland home and it’s beautiful. Was completed ahead of schedule.

Highland homes are extremely beautiful. And their reputation is stellar. Our project manager Julio couldn’t have been more helpful and professional, hands-down, so knowledgeable and helpful during the process. Our home is built, impeccably worry free. The only reason for the four stars on the overall buying experience (because everything else is 5 stars). This is not our first time buying a home, nor our second or third time. I was a bit baffled and disappointed that no one from the sales team or Highland homes itself sent a thank you note with a gift to the buyers (us). I have never purchased a home and all my days and all my years where we were not thanked afterwards with some kind of thank note and a gift basket a bottle of wine cookies, something. To be honest, I was very surprised. That should change right away. Other than that, we absolutely love our home! And we love the area as well. Couldn’t be happier!! ... More

Highland is very responsible and trustworthy builder, They take care the home owners very well I am very happy with my home

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 LOVE Highland Homes builders. And I definitely LOVE Highland- Bridgeland Central Townhomes. They’re so elegant

My wife and I recently built with Highland Homes, and they truly are an excellent production builder, but in this brutally honest review, they are, indeed, a production builder. Our builder was amazing, helped us with some custom requests, and the construction process seemed to go pretty seamlessly. The reason I ding them an overall star is for the closing process with the home. Nothing to do with their mortgage company, or any surprises, however the cleaning company they use to get the house ready for closing day was an absolute atrocity. We found window screens ajar outside, with some windows being a crack open. No actual cleaning of the cabinets / floors, and the 8k we paid in window shades was done, and it was just a disapointing end to a rather great experience otherwise. The other thing is the amount of issues that were missed during the walkthroughs, which I can take blame for. We had some water leaking from our master shower, we had a couple of irrigation leaks for our sprinkles, and a lot of nonsense issues that you have to call customer care for to have taken care of on a work order. They do respond timely, but to have 8-10 work orders after you move in just adds to the stress. Seems as though the trades install things, but don't actively test to ensure everything is working correctly. My advice to Highland is that if you have customers who are moving into $700,000+ homes, make them feel like you cared enough to have them ready. ... More

The home buy experience was very easy. It was less stressful then other homes we have bought. The quality of a Highland home is amazing. They take the time to show you how to operate all the modern convenience.

We love everything about our new home. We loved everything about the process leading up to purchasing it as well. The only issue we had with Highland at all was their lender Beau, who worked up all of our information wrong because he admittedly was preoccupied while taking phone calls with us and it almost cost us dearly.

I love my home. Everything looks really good. They are fixing everything I have asked them to fix. Reliable.

Quality of build is great. Materials do not feel cheap like other builders.

Thru the good and the bad the Construction Foreman remained calm and made the building process easier. We are Happy with our home. I would not recommend it to anyone ... only because I want to be the only one of my friends living in this Beautiful Neighborhood... we did the hard work of finding this neighborhood and the long wait of the construction process is sooo worth it...

This is the 4th home I have purchased. All from different builders. The overall experience has been fantastic. From start to finish I never felt like a transaction. That matters to me a lot. I highly recommend.

...we moved in two months ago and still have zero options for cable/internet. It’s 2019, the internet is not optional! Should have been ready to go before closing! Otherwise great house and great experience.
