Highland Homes Reviews

Highland Homes as builder had a good name but in the recent home buying experience I felt little bit different. The construction work took one year to complete and the work was not up to the standard. Even though after pointing out lot of issues and errors in construction it took too much time for them to correct it. The repairs which were supposed to be done prior closing was left out and I was told by the builder that it will be done asap, but it was a false promise. Even today those repairs which was supposed to be done prior closing is not done and I was told to submit a warranty claim for those repairs. I don't understand why should I submit a warranty claim when it should have been done as a part of building process. When I went to the sales office to get more info about this, I was told not to come here and I was advised to contact the person responsible for the construction about this. I send emails but no answer yet. I felt this negligence during the construction period and in many occasions I witnessed slowness. ... More

I purchased an inventory home. The purchasing experience was great, smooth sailing and closed on time. The sales representative and finance team were very responsive and courteous. The minor problems were readily addressed by the Quality Management team.

Overall we had a great experience working with Highland Homes team here at M3. Our construction manager, Blake did a fantastic job overseeing the construction of our home from start to finish. We will continue to recommend Highland to friends and family as a reputable builder.

Hayley, our sales consultant, was earnest, sincere and helpful in answering all of our questions. This was our fourth house that we have bought. Hayley is by far the best sales consultant of the bunch. Dalton, our construction mgr, has been extremely honest and helpful in addressing any questions that we bring to his attention. Highland representatives have been great....and our house is well built and should last for years. Thanks Highland Homes!

Dustin was simply incredible - and exceeded our expectations in quality, professionalism and authenticity/trustworthiness. We've been in our home for almost two months now and are still receiving compliments on the quality and craftsmanship of the home. Even our independent inspector was complimentary of the quality of the home and Highland as a builder during a time when many builders were cutting corners due to the pandemic impacts on every industry. Our experience with Dustin was so great that my sister (who we were staying with during our build) and her husband decided to build a Highland home and join the Highland family after seeing our journey and hearing about our experience with the Highland team (Dustin, Ryan and Sarah). I'm not easy to impress, but in this case my expectations were exceeded several times over. We truly can't thank Dustin and the Highland team enough! ... More

Materials used were high quality and very attentive to customer issues, very friendly and responsive team.

pat, kitty, ginger and Colin were all exceptional

The house is well design overall. The price was reasonable.

Through and through a great experience with Highland homes. The sales staff to construction manager to escrow agent and loan officer were all top notch. Thank you to Erin (sales), Jeremy, Preston (construction), and Matt (loan) for facilitating the process and making the move seamless.

The entire team from Sia to construction manager Alex to those in between with Alice and Miya were all great. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. It was a great experience. I would definitely recommend Highland Homes, but especially this particular team.

Overall great experience for us

We have moved into our dream home built by Highland Homes. Rikki our sales counselor was there to answer all of our questions and get things done for us. Cliff and Chuck, our builders did an excellent job on the home and Cliff has followed up on any issues we have had and immediately resolved them. Thank you Highland Team for making this happen.

Me and my wife moved from Ca to Tx. Mac and Dakotoa helped make it the smoothest move we have ever had. We are so happy with how our house turned out. We love every bit of it.

In an effort to keep this review brief, I will only list our general experience. Communication with our construction manager was poor throughout our build process. Our home inspector identified enough items to complete a 30-page report and we nearly walked away due to the severity of some of the issues. A mere two months after closing we have had 18 (yes 18 and counting-with at least 5 more visits pending) repair visits to address/rectify the multitude of problems with the home. Highland has the potential to be one of the, if not the best, builders in the area, however, the quality and workmanship fall short on nearly every level. We fell in love with what this home could be; definitely not what it turned out to be. ... More

The staff at Highland are amazing, very trustworthy and responsive. The quality of the house is medium - I believe because they are building so many at one time, the time to ensure details (i's dotted and t's crossed) need improving. I would suggest they ensure a team at highland is conducting a thorough check before the house is released to the buyers (lots of details - paint especially was not well done, and comparing to my former custom built home in a different state - material quality is low). It is not as stressful because the staff is very responsive to ensuring 100% customer satisfaction, so that makes a big difference. ... More

We have previously built a new home with Highland some 13 years ago, and our past great experience was not matched this time. Not even close. They were resistant to even minor changes in the house plan, and one employee noted the business model had changed 4 or 5 years ago. Frankly, the house was just not ready for move in, and the punch list grew longer every day. There have been electrical issues, plumbing issues, landscape issues, and more . 8 weeks later we still have items not completed though staff says they are working at it. We clearly are not a priority. This experience with Highland has been disappointing to say the very least, and I could not in good faith recommend this builder to a friend. ... More

The part that impressed me the most is the quality of the home building experience. From the materials they use to the managers who work directly with the homebuyers, we felt very taken care of with Highland Homes.

Carol (Sales) was extremely helpful throughout the buying/building process. She answered our many questions on a timely basis (even on her days off) or referred them to the construction manager. She also worked very well with our realtor representative from Coldwell Banker, Amanda. John (construction manager) always replied to our questions quickly and on several occasions came to the house to explain different aspects of the construction process to us. He kept us fully aware of the construction timeline which was a big concern of ours. Excellent job on his part. Tim (construction manager) came on late in the building process and has been working with us on follow-up items mostly. He also has answered many questions in and out of the house and has been easy to communicate with on some outstanding issues. Doing an excellent job on those. We look forward to continuing to work with him on those. ... More

Had a very awesome experience, I have nothing but praises for the highland group.

The craftsmanship and attention to detail is severely lacking, heavily impacting the final outcome. Just because a home is livable it doesn't mean the buyer should be forced to accept lippage in the tile, bulging walls, inconsistent masonry, and questionable framing, amongst other things, like we were.

I have been in my new home for 2 months and there are still MANY repairs that need to be made that were not done before we closed. But since we are in the home now, they are "warranty" issues. I did not have a working oven for a month because they electricity wasn't connected. I have had a mason come out 3 different times and I still have a hole in the wall outside. I have tiling, cabinet, sheetrock, and paint issues. There are walls that I'm sure are supposed to line up, that don't. I don't know how many appointments I have had for trades to come here to make repairs and there is very little that has changed. I work from home. To have people in and out of your home making noises disrupts my work. I went to 3 different Highland Models just to see how they look in comparison to my home and it just made me angry. They don't care about the owners once they are in the home. They are off to sell the next house. If we didn't constantly reach out, I honestly don't think anything would get done. I even had one of the trades tell me my complaint about a wall switch was petty when they came to make the repair. Needless to say, it didn't get done. I could seriously go on, but I feel like its pointless. It is really exhausting. I would NOT recommend Highland Homes to anyone. As soon as you ask about making a change to something since they have so much to do, they are quick to tell you it wont be covered by warranty. I know they had a good reputation at one time but I think those times have passed. ... More

Debbie and Joy was very informative and helpful throughout the process of the buying of my house. My project managers Travis and Blake communicate effectively with the entire process, and very thorough at my walk through before I closed. The team continue to provide excellent service after I closed on my house. I highly recommend Highland homes if you want quality, professional, and efficient homebuilder.

We have lived in the townhome since October this year. We like the community and the design and the overall quality of construction of the building for the price.

Owning my own house has always been my greatest dream and it finally came true two months ago when I moved into my new Highland house. The quality is great for the budget I invested in. And my contact Mr.Clayton Coffee has been very professional and responsive when I did encountered a few issues. Great house and I am very glad I made the right choice on Highland Homes.

We had a great experience throughout the entire process of working with highland and the development of our home over the course of a year. It started with a great visit to the model home where the sales woman Edna gave us a tour in person of every single floor plan they offered. She was extremely knowledgeable about all of their homes and even showed us around pecan square. Taking that extra step and showing us instead of just talking to us about everything made our experience feel personalized. After signing our contract, we were partnered with the designer and construction manager both of whom continued the personalized experiences. No matter who you work with at highland, everyone is very communicative, honest and upfront. Although their floor plans are top notch, I t’s the small details that make a highland home stand out—the extra tall doors, the light fixture selection, to the quality of cabinets and well thought out floor plan. Even after closing when we have found minor things that need fixing, they always promptly respond and send someone over to fix it. Your mind will rest easy when working with highland. ... More
