Salesperson was very helpful and worked with me patiently and kindly. Several issues with my home but hopefully they will get taken care of sooner rather than later.

  • Morrow, OH

There is a lot of problems we found in house which is we keep calling dress we keep email them. They don’t come to fix that and then there’s a crazy HOA things. They don’t allowed anything me and my brother we both two house same place and we have a big backyard. We cannot do anything every single thing you have to get approval. If not, you’re gonna have to pay fee fees there is no playground in this comment. No swimming pools and our kids is playing outside. There is construction going on no safety at all. It’s open. There is a lot of kids playing by the construction area.

Drees Homes responded:
Furkat - We strive to provide exceptional customer service, so we have escalated your review to our leadership team for consideration. Our Customer Care Manager advised his team has a scheduled work date at your home next week. Regarding your comments about the HOA, communities with a homeowner's association do have established guidelines to help maintain a consistent look and feel throughout the neighborhood. These requirements are outlined in the HOA documents and are reviewed and acknowledged by homeowners prior to purchase, so there are no surprises later on. If you have specific questions about your community’s guidelines, we encourage you to reach out to your HOA for clarification. ...

Salesman Chris suggested us going to Dream Days at the selections office. This gave us the opportunity early to see what selections were available and helped us down the road during the selection process. Brandi was very helpful showing us around at Dream Days. Chelsea was very helpful working with us to make decisions during the selections process. Our builder Kai was outstanding. Great communications and very easy to work with. Anything he felt wasn't done right or that the contractors missed he had them return and resolve. We are very happy with our new home.

Drees Homes responded:
Anthony - Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad Dream Days helped make your selections process smoother, and that Chris, Brandi, Chelsea, and Kai each made a positive impact along the way. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with the team. Congratulations on your new home! dreeshomes

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 ...

Overall good experience but...

  • The T.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • May 27, 2026
  • 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.

This was not our first time building a home from the start. This was by far the easiest and best home building experience. The Drees team has been so responsive and efficient. The quality of the home is second to none. This will be a home that I spend the next 30 years in with my family and making precious memories. I will always be thankful for Drees for providing that.

This is our 2nd home with Drees in the past 2 years. Once again, experience was excellent. I love how they allow you to really customize your home during design process Lusa, sales agent was excellent and very responsive and a good listener to our needs. Seth and Nick provided quality service during build phase and Seth continues to provide excellent customer service long after we closed. I highly recommend Drees for a quality built home that feels like a custom build.

  • Anonymous

Please understand that when you meet with the salesman that they DO NOT MAKE clear that everything in the home is ala carte! After you go to the Home Center and pick what would be put in any modern home - they are willing to provide with the home from the 90's at no additional cost - but I am certain that the items chosen are not appreciably more expensive than what they will "give you" for the sales price. You may have "sticker shock". The home does not even come with a garage door opener at closer to a million dollars than we ever expected - we are still replacing or putting in items ...

This is our second Drees home. The quality of materials is substantially lower than our home 25 years ago. The workmanship is good. Some designs are a little strange like the placement of switches. Some of the carpentry seems off like molding pieces that don't fit together correctly. The responsiveness of the builder to fix items has been good.

Drees first neighborhood of semi custom homes. Unfortunately they are not ready for such homes from the inexperienced sales staff to building team. They are focused on cost cutting rather than doing the right thing. Only benefit is 5% down upon contract. There is a lack of accountability and ownership from Drees so if you want to buy here just be aware and manage your build as appropriate.
