Highland Homes Reviews in Houston, TX

Painter didn’t do a good finishing

Naturally, issues will arise when building a home. In every challenge, our salesperson and job foreman were helpful, positive, and made sure our needs and expectations were met.

Great experience with Highland Homes.

Everyone has been helpful & kind throughout the process.

Very responsive and good quality

Highland stands behind there product.

Highland homes’ plans really stand out with the high ceiling and open floor concept.

From the initial meeting with the sales rep to the final walk through, everything was easy. The sales person worked hard to get me what I wanted as far as the design budget went, so I didn’t have to sacrifice a lot as a single mom. My builder emailed me weekly to keep me in the loop as the building process progressed and was responsive to my questions or concerns. Highland has so many upgrades that are part of their standard package. I absolutely love my home!

Liked the staff and home

I love my new home. It was worth the minor issues with workmanship when moving in.

Finish work--paint, drywall and tile--could have been much better. There are multiple corners of walls/bottom trim that are not square and/or even. Highland Homes is correcting all of the issues however, would have rather had the finish work completed properly the first time. I am most pleased with the windows and doors installation. The wooden floors which we chose (which covers most of the downstairs) was installed properly and looks great. And I feel that Highland Homes does an excellent job with installation and design of the Trane Heating and Air Conditioning system--very efficient and very well balanced. Follow up from contractors/sub contractors has been prompt and professional. Our Highland Homes Construction Manager was attentive to our requests and kept us engaged and informed. Yes, I would purchase another HH!!! ... More

Great experience and level of professionalism. Made the experience seamless.

Jason was great sales person and Jared was also great. Communication was great and upto our satisfaction. The only constructive feedback I would like to give them is that they should be consistent in offering upgrades to the neighbors for example there was an option to add a gate on the back fence which was missed for me where is there a couple of options that were missed for my neighbors. If there is a script that they can follow or list of items that they can follow for upgrades or any other things that could be great. Also there should be a way to record the walk-through meeting when they explain everything because it is hard to remember in the excitement of looking at the home. Overall it was a great experience some minor things like the above can be improved here and there ... More

Overall, I'd give the experience 4 stars out of 5. Highland makes nice homes with good layouts that make you feel like you are in a bigger home, and don't pack the house with space you can't use. The houses have a lot of light and you can tell they are on a different level with quality. We were actually referred to Highland by some friends who lived in one in a different part of the state and loved it. The biggest disappointment was that when we moved in, there were several things on the house that weren't completed and should have been either verified or checked before we got there. We had to submit 7 warranty tickets within the first week of living in the home, for various issues ranging from the thermostat not going below 72 (due to a contractor lock on the thermostat), to the oven not being plugged in - general things which should have been addressed before we moved in. What I will say is that once we brought these things up/submitted warranty tickets, our Construction Manager helped out with getting repairs moving and everything was resolved in a very intrepid manner, and we haven't had any further issues out of the items we listed needing to be addressed. The people you work with are great and they are responsive to the warranty items, the only reason I can't give a perfect rating is because quite frankly the house wasn't ready when we moved in. Outside of that - which may likely just be my experience - Highland makes the best homes for the price range. ... More

When I had issues . The issue was taken care of quickly ! The people are really great at taken care of issues. That the guys doing work either over looked are just didn’t do ! Real quick response time and very polite . And helpful

Sales Rep and Builder were great to work with for the most part. There were some workmanship issues that remained unresolved at the time of closing, which was not satisfactory for us. Overall, we have a well built home.

Highland Homes made the home buying process very easy. Everyone from the builder to the loan officer were always available to answer questions. They made the process non stressful and go smoothly.

Elder is the man! Great salesman and even better person.

I think they can improve in materials and labor with better quality.

The buying process was great

Overall, the home is beautiful. But considering what we paid for the home, the small details should not have been overlooked. Doorknobs are crooked, gaps in the caulking between the floor and baseboards, doorframes aren't level, causing several doors not to shut properly.

Still trying to get things resolved after living here for two months. Worry about issues, I’ve heard about since moving in . Painting was poor.

Ensure work is done thoroughly and you have looked at everything. The contractors tend to miss things here and there.

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
