My overall homebuying experience with Highland Homes was exceptional. Beyond their commitment to quality workmanship and materials, and their consistent trustworthiness, we were particularly impressed by their responsiveness, especially in accommodating unforeseen challenges like inspection delays. They truly went above and beyond to ensure a smooth process and great value for the price paid, earning our highest recommendation. Special shout out to Kelly R from sales who helped answer all our questions and David B our construction manager who made the experience smoother. From the inspection phase through addressing subsequent call-outs, David demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a remarkable depth of knowledge. He was instrumental in swiftly resolving any issues that arose, showcasing a clear 'bias for action' that truly sets him apart. His proactive approach and dedication ensured a positive and reassuring experience for us even when facing unexpected challenges. We are incredibly grateful for his expertise and commitment throughout the entire process ... More

We were very impressed with the overall purchase process. Glenn and Jim made it very easy for us. Although there was a struggle with getting power to the section, they both ensure d we were well taken care of. We love over new home. We got a product that is much better than we expected. Thank you Highland Homes.

Our construction manager Brandon has really exceeded expectations with his responsiveness before, during, and after move in. He continues to lake sure that we have all of our concerns addressed quickly and professionally! Great job Brandon! We love our new home!

The quality with certain items around the house were not up to par. Who ever does quality control needs to be fired. I had a lot of things I pointed out during the build process that needed to be fixed. Blue taped it all during walk thru's with my construction manager. I was told they would be fixed. Some were but they were only the small quick fix items. My kitchen was never fixed. Drawers, cabinets are misaligned. Trim pieces were damaged and not replaced. Now after closing the cabinet company got called out to fix my issues. Now I have more issues as the workers did a horrible job and a incomplete job. After moving in had to have high land homes have a drywall guy come fix some drywall that I found the not have a straight seen at two walls. Again this all comes down to quality control and the guy that also does it , is terrible at their job. Also whoever passes the home for inspection is also terrible. I'm glad I hired a third party inspector. If I didn't hire one, my a/c duct work would not be properly secured and there would be finger jointed wood boards in the attic in spots that your not allowed to use finger jointed boards. Sales was great. Closing was great. The build process was a nightmare, horrible. Was told one thing and another thing happened. If high land homes upper management wants to contact me I have no problem with that. ... More

My Wife and I have been home shopping for YEARS. We ultimately decided that getting a home to our standards just wasn't attainable so we agreed to be renters still (shame on Blackstone). Anyway, my brother (realtor) found a gem from Highland Homes. Not only did the home sing to us but given the in-house financing, we were able to afford it. What really set it apart though was HH's builder, David. He was attentive, went out of his way for us, and never made any request/inquiry seem small. If it matters to us, it matters to him. He's given us peace of mind knowing he'll do whatever it takes to make us satisfied and happy homebuyers. Given how exorbitant prices are getting, it seems like most homebuilders are just happy for a property to close and move on to the next. ... More

When we started our process with Highland Homes we had some rough hurdles. We eventually got reassigned to Jack and have had an amazing and smooth process. He continues to go above and beyond and we’ve had an incredible experience because of him. Thank you Jack for allowing us to have an amazing experience and for always going the extra mile, it truly makes a difference and we feel very lucky to get to work with you!

Unfortunately, we had to wait over a year for construction of our home to be completed due to no power to our subdivision. Highland helped accommodate us for the delay and there were benefits in checking construction status each week in- person. Without the delay in construction we would have given 5 star rating. We are very happy with our new home.

I bought new home from Highland. I got new home inspection which revealed to many issues. One cracked living room window, 3 heat resistance destroyed living room windows because of Argon gas loss. Every tone of black with Kitchen cabinets, non-working drawers, chips etc. Not polished properly kitchen countertop. No proper slope for garden and all rain water sits in the center of it. Non-working vents on bathroom. Very noisy fan hood in kitchen. Very noisy refrigerator. Cracking garage door which inside white outside dark grey, painted by Highland which causes blown fuse to many times. Garage door technician came and told me because of Highland painted the outside of garage door instead of ordering them on the correct color, paint sticks between parts and he removed some of the paint. Now I can see white lines between dark grey plates from outside. Some of these problem was fixed but I still have cracking garage door problem and noisy vent hood problem although I followed Highland team to many times. I am not sure how the home builder which is known one of the best of country provides so low quality control in their product before delivering to customer. If you are going to be Highland customer, please be sure to get home inspection. ... More

We had an amazing experience building our home with Highland Homes, and I can’t say enough good things about the process—from start to finish, everything was smooth, professional, and well-communicated. One of the biggest highlights was working with our construction manager, Carter. He truly went above and beyond to make sure our home was built with quality and care. Carter was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and proactive in addressing questions or concerns. His professionalism and dedication gave us so much peace of mind during the entire build. We always felt like we were in good hands. The overall craftsmanship of the home exceeded our expectations. The design options were modern and high-quality, and the team was flexible and helpful throughout the selection process. We’re so grateful to Highland Homes and especially to Carter for helping bring our dream home to life. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, customer-focused builder! ... More

Overall Rating: 3.5 out of 5 The construction experience was excellent, and Ray has been consistently helpful throughout the process. However, our experience with the Sales team left much to be desired. We encountered a situation that required escalation to the sales managers, which involved multiple follow-ups and several hours of our time to resolve. Near the end of the process, we were unexpectedly told to finalize the loan rate within the same day. We received a text message at 2 PM stating that the rate had to be locked in by 5 PM. The message felt aggressive, implying that failure to meet the deadline would result in penalties and a delayed closing date. This kind of communication felt more like a threat than a professional interaction and was not something we expected from a reputed builder like Highland. There was no prior notice about needing to finalize the rate that day, which added unnecessary stress to an already time-sensitive matter. Overall, the Sales experience was disappointing and we believe there’s significant room for improvement in how customers are treated and informed. ... More

Excellent and easy going journey. Andrew is awesome in customer service understanding home owner concerns and acting in consequence

I love my new home.

The process they have with pre-closing and home orientation is flawed. We had several items on the list to be fixed but the focus was on closing and not finishing the punchlist. We have been closed for almost two months and are still trying to resolve issues. Highland needs to have an independent quality check prior to closing. They say they do but they don’t. After we closed we came to the house and our cooktop was in the floor because it did not fit, which was an issue for weeks prior to closing which they had time to fix but just could get it done. Highland has good intentioned but cannot control there subs. The subcontractors do what they want when they want- who is in charge? ... More

Will recommend Highland to friends….. excellent!

Expect a good experience with Highland Homes. Our sales person, Tony, was super helpful explaining everything about buying our home. The design center personnel were easy to work with and helped us make the best choices. We have been very pleased with our warranty experience so far. Jack and team have been very responsive to all our questions and had the various teams complete the warranty work very quickly and thoroughly. We’re pleased with our decision to purchase a Highland Homes.

I had a great homebuying experience with Highland Homes. I spent several months house shopping, and the floor plan I found with Highland Homes was different from all of the other new construction homes I looked at. My home appears to be well built with quality materials. Jack is my current point of contact for any warranty matters that arise. He is professional and extraordinarily responsive. Thus far, Highland Homes appears to be a company that stands behind its quality and workmanship.

Highland is a really goog company to work in my opinion the better

There were some miscommunications and moments of friction during the process, but in the end, Highland did come through and delivered a good-quality home. To future buyers: do not wait until the final walk through to start identifying issues - start early, while the home is still under construction. Be proactive, visit the site often, and keep detailed notes. This will help you and Highland work together toward delivering a more complete and accurate final product. Some details fell through the cracks at the design center -for example, the tile behind the mirrors in the master bath, which was not included in the final build (we assumed it would be, since it was shown in the model). Do not assume something is included, verify. That said, we had to reference our paperwork multiple times and advocate for items that were supposed to be included. There appears to be a disconnect between Highland corporate, the sales/design team, and the contractors doing the actual construction. On more than one occasion, we had to point out selections that the builders had not been informed of. That said, once issues were raised, Highland was generally responsive and worked with us to make things right. Aside from these challenges, the overall experience and final outcome were positive. Just go into the process with the understanding that active involvement is essential to avoid missteps and ensure you get the home you were promised. ... More

Whole experience was great from the sale people to the construction manager and the loan people.

Walter and Matt provided an excellent service.

Get experience! Everyone has been very helpful . James is great !

We had a very good experience building our new home with Highland. The people involved were responsive to questions and concerns. Our project manager, Charles, kept us informed. Overall, it has been a very good experience for our family

We’ve had a great experience working with our construction manager Johnathan. He always gets things done in a timely and effective manner, and anytime I’ve had questions or concerns, he’s been quick to respond and very helpful. His professionalism and communication made the entire process smooth and stress free. Because of this experience, we would definitely buy again with Highland Homes. Highly recommend!
