Highland Homes Reviews in Dallas, TX

Worst customer service evern I have seen in my life

To mention a few issues, The home was not ready to be delivered on the day of close with construction taking place the day off closing, tile pieces and dust all over master bathroom, supplies left throughout the home, and countless issues to follow. The home is still not complete 2 months post closing.

I closed on my home on 12/27/2021. The condition of the home when I received it should not be something Highland is proud of. The carpet was not completed. There was an entire closet that wasn't carpeted, the carpet on the stairs was loose, and carpet was sticking up in several corners. I received the wrong stove and I am still waiting for the correct one. My bathrooms are still missing mirrors and the master bath does not have the shower door, vanity lights, or the glass to separate the shower and bathtub. I have closets that don't have the rods to hang clothes. I have paint on railings and paint isn't complete. The little square pieces at the bottom of the railing are all loose. The sprinkler system does not work properly. We have not received our chandelier yet but the unfinished home next door has their's. Also, the unfinished home next door seems farther along than my home. I just think it's crazy that the house was turned over in the condition it was in. The back yard was a mess and there was urine on a toilet seat. Just didn't seem much pride or priority was taken in building my home. We aren't a priority. Also, why isn't there insulation in the interior walls? The toilet in the master bathroom sits right against the living room wall and you can hear everything. As first time home buyers we entrusted Highland to build our dream home and Highland has failed us. Highland hasn't reached out in an attempt to right the wrongs. It's been a miserable experience. I can go on and on but it shouldn't be like this. ... More

Wish our house was built like others. We have major aesthetic brick issues that lingered for months (may to sept) and the construction manager kept on saying it’ll get fixed l. At the 11th hour before closing got rid of all the excess mortar all over our house and ruined the front of the house with excess acid wash. We were put in a hard place bc we had to be out of our old house. The brick is so horrible, and we put eves lights and u can see a wave in all our brick in the front. I would say they are responsive on warranty request, but our house didn’t get the highland quality we thought we were getting and the brick work was the worst I’ve ever seen. ... More

We did not have a good experience with sales or project manager. Highland lacks attention to detail. People working on your house don’t even have access to the plans.

Terrible experience overall. I will say, Mike with the mortgage company needs a mask and cape because he was superman. Tyler, our second Builder has done her absolute level best to correct issues we had so I would rate her 5 stars. If you end up with Eric as your builder, cancel and walk away. He doesn't care at all. He is extremely unprofessional, including having trades eating and sleeping in my home during our scheduled meeting which he was late to. You will not get a quality home if he builds it, request Tyler, she is hands and feet above him in treatment and physicall quality.

The sales rep was untrustworthy and the builder still has not completed our house after he said he would finish everything up the week after closing. It has been three months and we still have blue tape in our house.

Terrible experience with builder. House was not 100% completed. Warranty feels like I'm asking I'm begging. Would not recommend

I have had a number of issued with my Highland home and do many issues have not been addressed even sfter submitting warranty tockets over 1 month ago. I have continued to submit tickets without committed dates of resolution. Considering the expense of the home we expected a higher quality buildout. The frustration is.magnified with the lack of response seen to date.

Our home was initially scheduled for completion in March/April. We told them no rush, as May was good with us. They scheduled closing May 30. I emailed more than once to confirm closing date as they appeared behind, mostly due to them stopping work on my home to build their new model (they verbally confirmed this was true.) We pushed closing back one day due to last day of school activities. The day before closing (on the original close date!), we still had a broken window, no fence, a leak in the bathroom, no inspection certificate, and MANY other major issues. They first wanted to do an affidavit for the repairs, but then after not passing inspection had to delay our closing TWO WEEKS. Had we been contingent, we would have lost the house, or been homeless. They acted like it was no big deal. Once we finally closed, we had to chase down keys, and still had a short affidavit. It took them 7 weeks to finish what they promised in 7 days. And we only got it done because we went to social media and got a meeting with the regional. They still don’t care about how much they inconvenienced us, or the HOURS of my time wasted with their contractors after closing. They made MANY mistakes along the way - I still have things that are wrong that I’m choosing to live with because I’m done fighting them. They admitted they didn’t give us their best but made no other amends. It’s been a horrible, stressful process - right in the middle of our family adopting and going through heart surgeries for our new son - and I could never recommend them as a builder. ... More

I was very disappointment with the whole process. First the tile and the flooring, back splash was installed with the incorrect ones from the ones I chose. The house was not complete for our first walk through and we had to do another one which had a lot of issues also. We are now having issues with leaking in our roof and has damaged the drywall in our garage. The water meter is leaking and has caused me to have a very high water bill. This issues all have been dealt with but I feel that this should not have even happened in the first place. I think it was poor workmanship and materials that caused the problem but as a home builder it should be your job to manage these issues from occurring. ... More

Too many build quality issues. Concerned they will not fix some of them. Most materials used are of low quality. Installation of many items not done well. Very slow to address issues.

What I have said in the paragraph above.
