Highland Homes Reviews in Dallas, TX

The house is beautiful and many of the small issues have been fixed or can be fixed. It seemed that some of the trades that were hired were not as attentive to their work as I'm sure Highland would have liked. For example, take a look at any fence in the neighborhood and the way the nails were put in (no attempt at a straight line). The issues brought up in home inspection and walk-through could have been avoided had more attention been paid during construction.

This is our third home, and it is the best yet! We love this house. Patrick is also super responsive to our concerns.

I was very excited about the opportunity to move north of Dallas. I love this area! I believe the best quality living is north of Dallas. After the decision had been made to move, we had to find a builder who was both affordable and reliable. I asked my previous builder who he would recommend and he did not hesitate recommended Highland Homes. I would have to say I am fairly impressed with the quality of the work. It is a few things I would have liked to see of a little bit better quality. For the most part, I believe we have a builder that will help increase value in our home and make our home very marketable if we decide to sale in the future. Their customer service is unmatched in every way. Issues are typically handled right away. Good builder! ... More

Highland and their employees did a great job of getting us into our home in a timely manner. Any flaws we've uncovered since we moved in have been quickly corrected. We're very pleased with them and recommend their homes highly.

Highland Homes representatives were professional and prompt

Generally, the buying process was quick and easy! The price of the house was in a reasonable range, although there are some unexpected surprises of paying extra for some of the developer’s own responsibilities to bring essential services to the area! In addition, I don’t expect to worry about the absence of blinds, funs and even a few of window screens are still missing! However, the properties of Highland Homes are fantastic! The administration and the people are great to work with! I love their lending practices and their title company, they help to understand everything! Enjoy working with Highland Homes! ... More

For the price I paid and the interest on the loan, they should have taken more time to perfect the completions; have more space in the bathroom design, more patio space, and even a study room. Also, for the cost of the HOA we should have an indoor pool that we could use all year round.

Highland Homes would not consider moving light switches lower or making bathroom doorways wider to accommodate federal ADA disability requirements. A compromise was offered but required an unreasonably large deposit. As a result, our elderly relatives who use a wheelchair have difficulty navigating our new house. Builder misunderstood change order for placement of additional outdoor lighting. We were charged nearly $600 for them to make the correction. Builder has very responsive to minor defects since taking ownership. One issue persists, though, causing our kitchen to smell like raw sewage whenever the dishwasher is run. We will continue to watch for signs of water intrusion on the interior, likely seeping through weep holes in the brick, which is causing window frames to be wet inside the walls (discovered when drilling pilot holes for drapes). ...

Everything is good, but felt priced extra for home

I had a great experience buying a highland home . it was a smooth experience right from signing the contract to closing the home . all he issues raised by me before closing and after the closing has been duly followed up and fixed by the warranty manager. Overall i had a great experience

Our experience with both Seth and Lesli has been excellent. The quality of work by the sub contractors has been spotty. Some have had to return many times to get it right. Quite frustrating at times!

Jason was amazing to work with from to start to finish, as was Jeff. There are some workmanship concerns on a few places in the house (flooring upstairs, stairs being weak and loud, carpet having places that protrude).

Lindsay was awesome in professionalism and communication in helping us secure our loan.

Love our home, had some challenges with supplychain issues

The home overall is a great home. I had a lot of rough times with the builder with things not been done right seem as they were taking a lot of shortcuts to cut cost or either the trades didn't care. I have since moved into home and the trades throw their trash on the side of home, they have walked down sod which is nothing but mud now paint on my side and up against my home and I've said something mortar mix thrown all against home, window and A/C unit. Happy with home but not happy on how the trades not held accountable for damaging my home and leaving mess for me to clean up.

Overall a good experience building with Highland.

Our sales manager provided useful suggestions on our new home design and floor plan enhancements. Both our sales manager and construction manager were accessible and responsive to our questions and requests during the new home building process. This builder provided several floor plan options that were attractive. Our new home building process took 7 months and I wish it hadn’t taken so long.

The Sales Person was a 9/10 from first impression to follow through on the zillion change orders we had was impressive. Consistent and Clear communication as well. Very pleased with our experience from that department. Construction Mgr was very friendly, accommodating on different fronts and solid communicator. Frustrations: Construction Mgr was changed after the first Pre-Con Meeting thus creating a lag in construction time for start. This put the project back 4-6 weeks which was trying for the Construction Team and stressful for us. We felt our Mgr had too many projects going at once and many things were missed, not supervised, and incomplete thus requiring numerous meetings and 're-dos'. I feel the quality of the home would be more than we received if Mgr had more time to walk our home more consistently and do QA inspections on his Teams. although we had struggles at times, I enjoyed the working relationship with the MGR and feel the MGR's priorities to make us happy are appropriate. I would consider Highland again. ... More

The only flaw in my house, the installation isn't thick enough I can hear my kids playing or talking even though room is on the other side of the house.

The overall house is good. Some of the work seems to have been rushed through. Little things here and there are not what I would call great but satisfactory.

Our experience with highland homes was for the most part a pleasant one. From start to finish the communication, customer service, and punctuation of our build timeline was exceptional. Tracy and James together made our experience pretty painless and exciting. Looking forward to making our house a home now. Thank you!

Great value but sacrificed quality in workmanship. After moving in there were little things that went wrong. Refrigerator was damaged upon delivery and still has an issue after being replaced. Pillars in the patio area holding up the roof has a gap which is perfect for insects/termites/pests to enter the home/attic. Garage cable that retracts when the opening the garage snapped. Countertop in master bath where it is caulked between the wall and countertop is cracking/peeling. Needs to be recaulked.

Highland has a good reputation and now after building a Highland Home I see why. Any issues I've had through the building process were addressed and handled to my satisfaction. I again would build with Highland.

Brick work and some cosmetic details could be improved.

Overall we are pleased with our Highland home.
