Me and fiance decided to go with Highland homes for our first home. It turned out to best the best decision for us and our experience was fantastic. Working with an amazing builder was a huge part of what made our experience wonderful. Our builder was very responsive and helpful with any requests or question we had throughout our building process. Could not had asked for a better builder to work with. Will always be extremely grateful for what our did for us and making our first home as special as possible!

Home buying experience was fine, very easy other than the wait time which was out of their control. The quality of workmanship could be better. Builder tried to make it better and in many ways did get things fixed. A few other cosmetic issues were not fixed and it feels like you’re forced to deal with them or fix them yourself after dealing with multiple do overs.

Excellent Service, Quality Questionable

  • Aubrey, TX

I want to start off by saying that everyone we have worked with at Highland has been phenomenal -- Juan (builder), Kathi and team (front office), both Brians (one helping with issue resolution and one a customer service rep). This is the first home we've built, and the entire time was helpful, informative, responsive, and very kind. We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to work with. We are concerned about the quality of our home and hope we made a good decision investing in a Highland Home. When you purchase a Highland Home, you know you will pay more for quality. We have heard ...

We are happy to be in our new home. Sales process was great. However, post-close, things are less than desirable. More than two months after closing, original punch list is still not complete. There is little to no communication and no sense of urgency. Hate to complain on social media, but hoping this will get someone’s attention that can take care of the punch list.

Highland Homes builds beautiful homes. Workmanship issues with various crews and insufficient quality control resulted in many issues. However, Highland Homes does attempt to resolve the issues. The process is slow but steady.

Responsiveness to issues

This does not apply to all Highland Homes in general, just my particular community. Responsiveness to issues is non-existent, no follow-up, doesn't follow through on agreed upon affidavit items and home still has multiple items pending to be resolved even after closing. Although there is a 1-year warranty, it may be useless as they will not respond to resolve.

Highland Homes - Not satisfied with the building process.

Not satisfied with the building process. Was always kept in the dark even with repeated requests. Identified issues before closing and was promised will be done in the next few weeks. It's has been almost 4 months, still long way to go.

Great builder!

  • Ellie L.

  • August 23, 2022
  • Leander, TX

During a time when many builders held bidding wars on property lots and included escalation clauses in the contract to pass increased costs of building materials to the buyer, Highland did not. Instead, there was a first-come-first-serve waitlist and clear pricing for every option I selected. Throughout the homebuilding process, Highland was responsive to questions and communicative with updates. There were still a few unfinished items when I closed, but Highland resolved them within ~1 month after closing. Also, I could have postponed closing had I chosen to do so. I did not feel any ...

The house is just perfect for me. Due to the delays I had to wait 3-3/2 months in a hotel room nearby. There were a few mistakes made that the builder took care of. I'm hoping Darren will come by to see what we have done.

Due to delay in construction many of the interior trim materials are water damaged and will need to be replaced. Cabinet work is very poor in quality and workmanship in installation is bad. Numerous issues with doors, and paint and texture on walls. Construction team ran a vehicle into the brick on the side of the garage and the frame is still split. and brickwork is wonky. Door handle on the half bath was reversed. Wrong bathroom fixtures were installed and replacement was so dangerous that we purchased and installed our own due to possible injury to children. This is our second Highland ...

I want to give the Highland Home teams millions of big thumbs up. They built my house in time despite of the global supply chain crisis 2021-2022. Although most of house is delayed and postponed due the supply chain issue, they prepared well and built my house in time. I was able to get a best mortgage rate since they built my house in time. I really appreciate their hard work, especially for Doug Yaklin, he's awesome!! My family really loves this house. Thank you all!

We have had great experiences with everyone we come in contact with at Highland homes. Ms. Dorothy is a great sales woman with wealth of experience who helped work us through our home buying process, Brody is a great builder and always available to anwser questions and alleviate any fears. Doug and his team were also great and made the loan experience more easy than any other home buying experiences we have had in the past. We are enjoying our home and look forward to unwinding at our home after a long days work. Thank you so much.
