What happened to Highland Homes?

  • Eric B.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 10, 2023
  • San Antonio, TX

We love the layout and floor plan, however, that is the extent of our happiness. For the most part, every sales rep and/or project manager or superintendent was pleasant to work with, but the follow through was lacking. The quality of workmanship and materials was abysmal, not something worthy of aligning itself the reputation Highland Homes has come to have over the years. Simply put, anyone on the executive leadership team would be disappointed...except for maybe the person trying to cut costs or save a dollar, it shows with the contractors working in this subdivision. In some aspects, we ...

Sellers provided false information along the process and would not honor their word despite have pictures, emails and texts to prove what they said. It is almost impossible to contact people local and at corporate to have issues addressed.

Home buying experience

  • Robert F.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 05, 2023
  • San Antonio, TX

For the most part, the experience was pretty good. Whether it was the sales person or the loan officer that was all a great experience. What was not a great experience was the sloppiness of following up on actions needing addressed prior to and after closing (entry light crooked, master tub faucet leaking, etc.) and the lack of quality painting throughout the house. We spent an entire day scraping paint droppings off of our tile floor just so that we could seal all of the tile throughout the house. I assume it’s hard to find good painters, but someone should’ve followed up after the painters ...

Overall very good. The quality of inside doors and door locks is poor. Talking to neighbors, many have had to have their inside doors and locks replaced. Lack quality.

Overall Highland Homes is one of the better builders but their subcontractors are not that great. They are rushing through the work, making mistakes and have poor quality craftsmanship. The communication with the sales team could have been better especially when it came to moving the closing date.

Not worth the price of the home

  • Kenneth R.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 05, 2023
  • San Antonio, TX

The more time I spend here the more issues I find with the home. It is quite obvious that the builders go as fast as possible without attention to detail, resulting in imperfections throughout the home. One issue for example is that I find dried up paint on the carpet or flooring throughout the entire home. I have been slowly trying to fix this but it's an issue that shouldn't be there in the first place.

Not a Good Experience

  • Susan I.

  • Forney, TX

Not the best experience buying this spec home in 12/21. Transaction was rushed, 3 weeks from contract to close. But after we closed, it seemed like everyone vanished. Sure, Highland sold their home and got their money but what about the after sale support? Warranty repairs weren't responded to in a timely manner...there wasn't much I liked about the entire process or the Company at the time. After about 6 months though, our home was assigned to a new warranty manager, Corey, who was awesome. He was instrumental in getting our warranty requests completed. He was a positive light in this ...

We bought our first Highland Home 12/21. It was a spec home and was a very rushed transaction. There wasn't much I was please about with this transaction and warranty items initially took forever to get fixed. It definitely was NOT a pleasant experience for us. Frankly having gone through this first experience with Highland, I'm surprised we even considered another Highland Home. BUT, the second purchase with Highland was like night and day difference. From the first meeting with our Sales Counselor Lesli to dealings with our construction managers, Matt and then Danny, we couldn't ...

Unfinished and Warranty Work Requests Submitted via the Highland Homes Website

  • Rodolfo V.

The home warranty was explained fully by your representative. However, when having submitted our varied requests for service through the website, there was NO, repeat NO, response towards resolution nor even an attempt to contact us. When after notifying the warranty representative, we have yet to hear anything in response. We are sadly disappointed since some of the issues were known prior to closure. Unacceptable comes to mind.

After we closed we were treated like enemies. Once in our new home we find the quality of workmanship very poor, having to touch up most of the staircase and wood work.

Highland Homes responded:
Hi! I appreciate you leaving us a review and I’m sorry to hear that this was your experience after closing on your home as customer service is one of our top priorities. Thank you for the opportunity to allow our team to follow up with you and after talking with Boyd, I am glad to hear that we have resolved these issues for you. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please continue to reach out to our team and thank you for being a Highland Homeowner! ...

Beautiful high-quality home with a few outstanding issues to resolve

  • Christopher O.

  • Montgomery, TX

Overall great design and high quality but there have been a few issues that have come up. Most have been resolved in a professional and timely manner or hopefully will be soon. One outstanding item that we discovered was an issue with the property line and placement of the retaining wall and fence. Unfortunately, Highland was made aware of the issue but never brought it to our attention. We actually discovered the issue while hiring a pool company and a company to install and whole house generator. I brought this up with Highland management three weeks ago and am still waiting for resolution ...
