Highland Homes Reviews in San Antonio, TX

The loan dept was amazing

Greg and Teri are excellent individuals to work with. A special shutout to Greg! Throughout the process he kept me informed of the progress and any issues therein. He is very accountable and was always responsive to any issues I've had throughout the process. Thank you for all the help!

Built fast but with quality in mind

Highland Homes was open and honest throughout our entire home purchasing and construction process. Their support even after our closing date had been outstanding.

Craig has been great correcting any issues.

Highland Homes is first among not so many equals. My delay in responding is that due to the pandemic there are painting touch ups and a few other things which will be accomplished soon. The delays been at our request.

Overall the quality’s very good. We’ve had a few small issues, which is to be expected, but Highland’s been very responsive to address them. Great people to work with. Wish the Ranches at Creekside developer and HOA were as quick and responsive as Highland’s been.

We love our highland home and while all new homes will have a few issues, this builder has gone above and beyond to make sure our issues are fixed in a timely manner. Would recommend Highland Homes over our previous DR Horton so far.

Our experience with Highland Homes was a good one from start to finish. Our sales rep and our builder were both very quick and eager to help us and to be sure we were happy with our new home. We very much appreciate how we were treated by Highland Homes, and especially by those two individuals.

Sales and operations staff were helpful, attentive, and responsive. A great team with a good product.

The staff was very helpful in our decision making. All items identified as a potential problem was resolved in quick manner. A great experience working with all of the Highland folks.

We had a great experience with our salesperson. She delivered everything she promised and she was a great help with understanding the process of building with Highland. The project manager did an equally fabulous job. He listened to our concerns and went above and beyond to deliver what he could. Past those two it was sometimes a struggle to get answers or help with the things we wanted for our house. For the new home buyer I would recommend making a list of the things important to you, floor plan, finishes, outdoor space, to name a few. Look at all possible plans and work hard at the design center to get what you want while staying in your budget. They have things they forgot they had, so bring pictures of what you want. Main thing is to ask for what you want and stay in contact with the project manager, ... More

This was my first new home “build” from picking home plan to selecting colors and materials. I can’t say enough good things about the professionalism of all Highland Homes employees. The service provided by the design center, the ease of completing documents to get the process and my selections priced, the pre-construction meeting was very helpful and gave me a chance to make sure all the add ons I wanted were included. The construction project manager was the best! He answered “all” inquiries within a few hours or minutes and followed through on everything, I’m not sure without Rich B. this entire process would have been the success it has been! Love the workmanship in my new 45 day old home! ... More

Once you move in you'll appreciate all the attention to the homeowner's actual living such as the wider driveways and wider lead walks to the front doors. That they cared enough to spend extra money before entering the home. The impressive roof pitches help the Texas hot air escape out of the attic as well give elegant curbside appeal. Every employee is an owner and it shows in their commitment.

I love my new home, it has everything that my family and I needed. Highland’s Team was a pleasure to work with from day 1, they provided and lot of information and encourage research of our new home, what a great experience.

Very happy with our first Highland Home. Our sales rep Laurie helped with lot selection, orientation of the home and went to bat for us to get the best value. We were constantly at the site and often talked with our construction sup Brody. Being involved in the process gave us a much better understanding of our construction. The 4 star on workmanship and materials is likely a function of increased demand on third party vendors. Trim and paint guys seemed to be in a rush and it shows up. Still a great house and would be fantastic with a little more attention to fine details.

Eva was amazing to work with and even stayed late when our lender was late sending documents

Buying experience was great. Getting things resolved now after the fact has been a task.

My husband and I chose Highland Homes because, in the past, we have had great experiences with the builder. Our experience in the building process was very good, but once we moved in, we learned that there are things that were done poorly that will not be fixed because they're not "warrantable items." It is disappointing that things are breaking and materials aren't of the quality that we paid and now we have to deal with it. Our builder representative is amazing, realistic, honest, and responsive so we have no complaints there. But with what we paid for the house, the materials and work should have been better. ... More

Sales process was easy. My sales consultant did a great job. The home is beautiful. We got everything we wanted. Now, the attention to the little details is HORRIBLE. There are so many things that need to get fix that if the workers would have been paying attention, it would have gotten done correctly the 1st time. Now, I'm having to take time away from my week to be here for repairs. It's ridiculous and very annoying.

Cheaply made cabinets. Had wiring issues, split base boards, garage door issue, back door to the house howls when the wind blows and drainage issues in the back yard. For the price of the house you would think we would not have so many issues. I spent 100k less for my last house and never had this many issues.

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

The loan process was very smooth and easy.

We purchased a new home in homestead community. The buying process was great from Terri to the financial was seamless. We had an issue with the garage door they fixed and took care of very quickly which was great. However I feel the used the cheapest products in the home from the carpet which looks like it’s 10 years old after only 2 months. We only have three people living in the house and we don’t abuse or walk back and forth like a busy street for it to be worn down so quickly. Also faucets and other products used were very cheap quality. We also have no mailbox after months of living in the house and we have been getting the run around on when we will have a mailbox. We currently have to go back and forth to the post office to get mail! The sod that was put down is subpar full of weeds and just throw down most smooth lumps and looks bad, hard to mow! Noticed careless craftsmanship after being in the house as well after paying 500k you would think you would get a quality product sadly I don’t !! ... More

Kevin in the sales department was very helpful and not pushy when it comes to choosing your new home.
