Builder Profile

Our story begins in 1955 with a simple belief: that we could build better places to live, work and play, one home and one relationship at a time. Since then, The Minto Group has successfully built a fully-integrated real estate company that can meet the needs of any individual, family, investor or business. We’ve accomplished a lot over the years, and as we continue to celebrate new ventures, milestones, innovations and investments, we’re always looking ahead to what’s possible. Read on to learn more about our journey over the past 60+ years.

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:...read more

  • 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...read less

Panama City Beach, FL, on Jan 15, 2026

Everyone I encountered thru the process of purchasing my home was very friendly & helpful. They made sure all my questions were answered in a timely manner. I moved in 4 days ago & was already visited by a [name removed] employee who introduced himself, explained a few things & gave me the date of his next visit to me.

Cons: I contracted toward the end of construction. Although the flooring had not yet been installed, I was unable to change the floor color. Aside from that limitation, the selections made on my behalf were appropriate and well done. Pros: The villa was constructed with precision using high-quality materials. I have been very impressed with the level of planning and organization demonstrated by [name removed] throughout the process, as well as the friendliness, responsiveness, and professionalism of the staff. The home feels extremely well built, and I would confidently use [name removed] again.

The part I really had an issue with is the purchase process for getting a desired lot. We were given process to follow and it was changed mid-assignment.

We started our new home with [name removed], but he left and [name removed] took his place. [name removed] was great, always on top of answering any questions we had. [name removed], our builder, was amazing and great to work with. Every time we met at the house he went over each build phase with us and what the next steps would be. [name removed] always answered our questions in person and responded to emails right away.

[name removed] our builder exceeded all our expectations on the care and quality of the building of our new home. Being remote during the build added communication challenges to the process. [name removed] exceeded our expectations here as well. This home is the third home We’ve built over the years. This entire process from initial information gathering until closing on our new home - could not have gone any better!
