Exceptional Home‑Building Experience

  • Scott S.

  • Harrison, OH

From start to finish, our experience with Drees has been exceptional. Our sales representative was top‑notch—knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the buying process. At the Design Center, our consultant’s expertise and keen eye made selecting finishes and styles both easy and enjoyable. Although we worked with four different builders throughout construction, each one was professional, informed, and responsive. The builder who brought us to the finish line went above and beyond to ensure we moved into our home on schedule, addressing every detail with ...

Drees Homes responded:

It’s great to know you felt well supported at each phase. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are honored to have been part of your home building journey. ...

Building our home started Early November and we closed mid March. We closely watched our home being built. Questions were answered right away. We were getting ready for our walk through and Will found things that we didn’t see and had them fixed before our walk through. Any issues were addressed right away.

Drees Homes responded:
John - Congratulations on your new Drees home! Will is a true professional, and we are so glad to hear his attention to detail helped bring any issues to a quick resolution. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us, we will be sure to share this with Will and the Southwick team. ...

Overall good experience but...

  • The T.
  • Verified HomeBuyer

  • Harrison, OH

There is a lack of attention to detail. Many little annoying things that were overooked, not earth stopping, but annoying nonetheless. Drywall mud over outlets, unsanded areas on walls, missed paint, water spigot not working, landscaping poor. Little things but, a little attention to detail makes a difference. Most annoying thing is a design flaw (my opinion) that the hot water heater is installed clear across the house from the kitchen, master bath, bedroom basement and washroom and takes over a minute to get hot water to those destinations.

Drees Homes responded:
Hello - Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. While we are glad to hear your home building journey was good overall, we take comments regarding quality to heart. Please know we have shared your review with our Cincinnati leadership team, who advised they are working to rectify your warrantable items and that they have a meeting scheduled with you.

I had a wonderful experience buying my home at Riffle Ridge from beginning to end! Sam Nick Jacob are great to work with, Nick kept me informed every step of the way, it was an easy process with them by my side. If I do have a problem I call Tammy and she tells John and it is all taken care of very quickly. I am very very happy with my home and I encourage anyone looking for a beautiful townhouse in a beautiful surroundings to come to Riffle Ridge! Thanks to all that helped me through this journey!

My builder, Kai was incredible. He responded to every email and problem we had along the way. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. I have had two friends buy back here and told them to request Kai as the site supervisor. I have spoken to all my new neighbors and those who had him said the same things. Our salesperson was Greg. He helped us design our dream home and keep it within our budget. Mehyar was our post build problem solver. He has an eye for issues like no one I’ve ever seen. His demeanor and knowledge were incredible. He is also someone that our new neighbors speak highly ...

Drees Homes responded:

We will be sure to share your review with Kai, Greg and Mehyar so they know their hard work did not go unnoticed. Congratulations on your new Drees home, and please feel free to reach out to us if there is anything else we can assist you with. ...

Communication Lacking

  • Patricia B.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • May 05, 2026
  • Harrison, OH

I had very little communication throughout the build. Had to follow up on outstanding items multiple times. Painting is not the best. Lots of touch up needed. Birds in the external vents. Vents should have been cohesive with the other townhomes. Had to provide my own screening to keep birds out. Overall, I like my home, but having to reach out 3 and 4 times to get small things cared for was frustrating.

Drees Homes responded:

Project manager was quick to resolve issues. Workmanship and materials used in the construction were lack luster.

  • Erlanger, KY

As I was told by one of the Drees reps " anyplace where corners can be cut as far as materials, Dees will always take the least costly route". This is evident in the plumbing structure where cheap plastic tubing is used instead of copper pipe, window sills are no longer standard and interior framing, drywall installation and finishing work were sub-standard. I will say that the Project Manager was quick to resolve issues when we pointed tham out to him.

Drees Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that aspects of your home did not meet your expectations. At Drees, we are committed to building quality homes using materials and methods that meet or exceed industry standards, and we take feedback like yours seriously.

Our home-buying experience with Drees Homes was nothing short of amazing! From signing to the handover, the team was supportive, transparent, and highly responsive. Our builder, Keith, kept us informed at every step of the construction process and acted quickly and efficiently on our feedback and concerns. We would definitely recommend buying a home with Drees Homes to our friends and family!

Unresolved Basement Leaks and Delayed Warranty Service

  • Van N.

  • Union, KY

Very disappointed with Drees Homes. I’ve had ongoing basement leaks, and even after multiple repair attempts, the issue is still not resolved — and now there’s a new leak. I’m also dealing with fireplace problems that have taken an extremely long time to address. Response time and communication have been very slow. For a new home, I expected much better quality and customer service

Drees Homes responded:
Van - First, we are sincerely sorry for the situations you have encountered. Please know that customer satisfaction and quality are extremely important to us. We have escalated your review to our Customer Care Team, and our manager advised that our team is working with you directly to address your warrantable claims.

Disappointed.

  • Sally F.

  • October 28, 2025
  • Fort Mitchell, KY

Sales reps were nice. Project manager was good. Quality workmanship was questionable. Many things are not correct. Gas fireplace doesn’t work. Microwave is giving error codes. Cracks in foundation with leaks. Scratches on front and back doors, so they needed to be replaced. Fusion wiring was faulty and needed to be replaced. Fusion sensor at back doo r does not work correctly now. Never had so many issues when buying a new home. Everyone is nice though and they come back to try to remedy the situation. Hopefully it will all be taken care of.

Michael was great to work with - if an issue arose he was on top of it immediately. We were very impressed with his coordination of all the sub-contractors to complete our home on time. The one item that needs to be addressed is the lack of communication between David, the Design Center consultant, and Michael. One would we would have a mantle on the fireplace while the other would say no to a mantle and it would not be included in the house. One would say we would not have an arch going into the dining room. We ended up with an arch but not knowing was frustrating.It was evident that the ...
