Purchase Experience Testimonials from Real Homebuyers

Allen, TX, on Nov 11, 2025

My experience with this lender was extremely disappointing and stressful from start to finish. The mortgage process was chaotic — the lender was switched several times, and no one seemed to have accurate information. I wasn’t given the final amount to wire until one day before closing, which caused a great deal of unnecessary stress. To make things worse, the closing costs were calculated incorrectly, and I was initially overcharged by $18,000. Only after raising my concerns and getting the sales representative from CB [name removed] Homes involved did the numbers finally get corrected. The lender was completely unaware of the incentives being offered and showed a serious lack of knowledge throughout the process. Despite my clear request not to include escrow, it was added anyway. By the time they finally provided the closing amount, it was too late to make changes to the contract. Overall, this was one of the most frustrating lending experiences I’ve ever had — full of errors, poor communication, and lack of accountability. I would not recommend this lender to anyone looking for a smooth or professional mortgage process.

Too like: 1. My dealings w [name removed] is number 1 on my list by a wide margin. Friendly, courteous, honest & extremely patient. Really enjoyed working with him to get the deal across the finish line. Too dislike: Dealing w [name removed] was definitely a chore. Just the sheer number of documents needed (some necessary but others ridiculous). I feel we are a super clean risk w no debt & high cr ratings. What we went thru to obtain this mortgage w 40% down i thought was unjustified.

We did not have an agent assisting us purchase the home, so we appreciated the service from [name removed] ensuring all our interests were considered throughout the process.

I am very pleased with my decision to move here and I am enjoying my new home! [name removed] was excellent to work with, and [name removed] from maintenance has also been excellent. Both have been very responsive, and move very quickly to assist. [name removed] has been a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend them, to the people that I know.

it was a very seamless process, laura was my mortgage broker at first and then jennifer took over. i have nothing but good things to say about jennifer she was very friendly, communicative and helpful with the process. [name removed] was communicative as well but towards the end my questions weren’t answered until the closing meeting.

The townhouse is great but working with the HOA is a total disappointment. They are aloof and less than responsive. Shame on [name removed] for attaching to that type of organization

My construction manager ([name removed]) in this new community has been awful. From my 1st orientation and final walk thru he blew through everything real quick without ensuring I understood. I made complaints about the AC in my new home that it was making a lot of noise during my orientation and final walk thru and all he could say was that the noise is normal and it’d reduce after I move in since there would be furnitures. I was insisting that this wasn’t the case and that something was wrong with the system outside and it would prevent me from sleeping at night. After i moved in jt was exactly the case and couldn’t sleep for a couple of nights until i had to submit another work order for the system outside to be taken a look at and was told that something was indeed broken. He hasn’t been responsive and tries to close work orders without ensuring the issue has been resolved. I always have to submit multiple warranty orders before it’s taken seriously and this wasn’t the same case at my previous cb jeni property at city point

Homebuilder Customer Reviews

No one knows more about a homebuilder's quality and service than the builder's customers.

Since 1984, Eliant has been independently evaluating the performance of homebuilders across the U.S., Canada, and the Middle East:

  • We ask recent homebuyers to evaluate their builder's purchase process.
  • Then, we ask homeowners to evaluate their builder's quality and service (1) after the first 5-months in the home, and (2) again at the end of the first year.

In "Homebuilder Customer Reviews", we present the ratings and comments collected from new-home buyers at these three points in time.

Eliant verifies that only evaluations completed by actual customers are included in this "Homebuilder Customer Reviews" site. No other evaluations - whether collected by the builder or those appearing on other public sites - are included here. All customer comments are included verbatim, no editing is permitted.
