Highland Homes Reviews in Houston, TX

From picking the model and lot all personnel have been wonderful. Their willingness to listen to my wishes and advice me on different things I may be leaving out was very important to me.

Overall excellent buying experience! Christy Chumbley did an outstanding job as our sales counselor. She was very helpful! Karen Fletcher in the design center was terrific also. She knew what she was doing it helped us make good choices. And Matt Barbera didn’t excellent job as our builder. He also was very responsive to any issues that we had.

I would just make sure to details. After a month being in our home we noticed more faults. For example we have several cracked tile pieces, cocking missing, sheetrock mistakes. I was not completely happy with my buy if I would do it again I would pay way more attention to details.

On behalf of my wife Lisa, we’d like to commend the Highland Home staff here in Jordan Ranch. Each one in their respective area was top drawer. This is our fifth and last home. Our experience from the beginning with Sales; during the construction phase and any follow-up on some minor items after we moved in has been great in every aspect. Having been in a sales career all my life, great performance should be acknowledged by the customer and not just problems. I hope this in some small way highlights how good the team is here.

Very honest and followed thru with what they said they would do.

Highland Homes went above and beyond our expectations. They communicated every step of the way along the home building process and informed us on why they did things or how things worked. We have built three homes and from walking each one this Highland home has felt like the better build quality of the three. Thank you Highland Homes!

This was our second home and the experience was great. We were allowed to make different changes including non standard changes. Very responsive. The builder communicated with us on the construction every week.

Great experience with Anita and Jarred. Jarred was quick to address and fix and issues or concerns we had.

The house is alright. We closed fast and the house was behind schedule. We were promised things would be fixed quickly as we found them but we have found that is not always the case and have had to push to get things fixed.

Don’t sign your closing docs until the builder fixes everything! It has taken me over 2 months to get everything fixed the right way and stay on the painters!! The builder has been very responsive about getting back to me but they are so busy building so many houses, their attention to detail from the contractors is not always good. We had to get the the patio and a portion of the driveway“floated” as there was acid/grease stains from the sub contractors, the painters (pretty sure the first painters were fired) had to come at least 5 times to fix things, and there were some finer details in the kitchen that were left unfinished/not painted. Bottom line, the house was rushed and not checked prior to the walkthrough and corporate would not move back the closing date. The materials/quality were good but attention to detail was lacking. ...

My home buying experience with Highland is a mixed review. From a floor plan/neighborhood perspective they have very nice floor plan options that are in very nice areas. My sales manager, Sarah T., was fantastic! She was very honest about answering questions and extremely responsive. She walked through each phase step by step. Without a doubt she was what sold me on building with highland and making my experience pleasant. I also appreciated my lending team and my design center consultant. When it came to the project mgmt/construction side - things unfortunately were not as smooth. I assume things in Covid added a layer of complexity in terms of materials and timing, but that should not have an impact on the quality and finishes on the home. When it came time for final walk throughs and closing my home was "finished" with lots of missed items which proved a lack of quality assurance (cracked windows, screws missing from glass door, damaged tile, bathroom drains filled with corrosion, messy cocking, VERY THIN flat standard paint which comes off EXTREMELY easy, etc.). Also there were A LOT of construction remnants left for me to clean and fix in a brand-new house which I feel is unacceptable (I.e. paint spots on floors, pencil markings on the tiles, base boards not flush to the end of the wall, windows not clean, dust on counters, paint/cocking all over most light switches door knobs, and more). My project mgr was responsive but I feel it was hard for my points to be fully understood and made priority. Highland makes a beautiful - I have toured several model and completed inventory homes to confidently say this. What I would say for new buyers is stay on the project mgmt side and ensure they are doing what they should be in terns of finishes. Also, if at all possible...do not close without these items being fixed. I am still having to lead that charge to finish my house I am paying for. ... More

Liked the staff and home

The house finishes are not 100%

We moved up our closing date on our home based on Highland saying they would be done earlier than we thought they would. Big mistake. They did not complete in time and we had no where to go and moved in. Still not done with issues and we have been here for 2 months. Not the way we planned. Cabinet company came out in about two weeks and hasn't been back in 6-7 weeks- forget holidays, we are just fed up - that is only one thing that is not fixed/completed. Only move in if completely done and hope you have no issues. I will never move around the holidays again and never take a builders word for when they will complete a home - I will wait and wait and wait to close for never having these headaches and that builder will need to wait on me and will understand since we have this story to tell. The quality of the home is very good for what was done and the sales rep was great but I can not handle the ups and downs again. I have been home since we are still in Covid protocol and that is the one thing saving us for whenever people can come, I am here to get things checked off our very long of things that need to be done. Trust me, this review is being nice since our frustrations run so high but "it is what it is" as a friend of ours always says. We just deal with it. If Highland is reading this - they know who this is and that is a shame for it can not really be anonymous and this story sticks our like a glaring red dot on the page. ... More

They made my first time home buying experience so easy and were available to answer questions quickly!

Excellent builder, good location. Very good interior designed. Beautiful garden. Clean environment and lakes. Excellent landscape. People are very friendly. We love high land homes.

They help you get exactly what you need, and adjust based on your desires and budget. Great house project and awesome features. Our sales person (Sarah T) was amazing and caring. She gave us all the time to make sure we were taking the right decision, always available. Great experience overall.

Homes are beautiful with modern design and wide, open spaces. We have been living and enjoying our new house, now for two months and everything is been working in the house as expected. The builders team was very helpful and dedicated to us during the purchase process and further during the move they were supportive with any question or requirement we had until being fully settled in the new house.

I think they can improve in materials and labor with better quality.

Overall the buying experience was great! Customer service from the sales office and building manager was great . I just subjects to Highland is that you pour your driveway last. As I ride around the neighborhood you can notice the difference between Highland and Perry homes . Perry home has clean finished driveways and Highlands driveways are different colors and patched. Perry pours their driveways after the home is built and I think that what makes a difference.

Highland Homes has always been my favorite builder and I knew that if I ever bought a new home, it would be a Highland Home. The best part of my experience was dealing with the incredible staff in The Groves (Walter, Haley, Ron & Gwen). Each of these individuals ensured my needs were met and they went out of their way to make adjustments to the home to suit my needs. I bought the house in the final phases of construction, so I didn't have input as the house was being built. This incredible team was quite flexible when it came to accommodating modifications to the home, upon my requests. I feel that for the price of the home, gutters should be included. I love my Highland Home! ... More

He is overextended with too many homes but he does a great job with the time he has

I am really happy love the experience I have with highland homes as well as builder. The builder’s team did what they promised. They responded to me in a timely fashion. I really recommend Highland Homes to everyone who are looking for a new home.

When we decided when and where we wanted to buy we went to Pomona subdivision and looked at all the model homes. In our price range we found a great home by Highland Homes. Our sales rep, Miss Denise, was fantastic on working with us on our wants and needs. It seemed she was always available to answer any questions we had. I looked at several lenders and chose Highland Home Lender, LLC. We worked with Miss Amanda and she was the best person I ever worked with in financing. She couldn't have made the process any better or easier. Once our home was finished Mr. Cason, project manager, addressed any issues we had and was very accommodating. Not only did we get a beautiful house but we met some really great people. If I had the opportunity to do it all again I wouldn't want to do it without these people! ... More

I am disappointed with the craftsmanship. I wouldn’t buy from Highland again.
