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

I loved the weekly updates on the progress. My least favorite was not seeing the options installed prior to choosing. We may have picked different options after seeing them.

We were concerned about being assigned multiple building supervisors. Never heard from the initially assigned supervisor, the second one left after we had met him once. We ended up with [name removed] who did a great job, communicated well and was easy to work with. We wish we had [name removed] from the beginning. We have a few issues with the layout of the home. We would have preferred not to locate the the gas regulator right next to the front door as well as the electric meter and the hot water tank along the entrance walkway. It would have been better located towards the back of the house. Also, once the washer and dryer were installed in the laundry closet the shelf above is almost unreachable. There is an unusable space in the garage that maybe could have been used to extend the guest bath.

I liked the personalized attention from our site supervisor, Will. As well as our sales agent [name removed]. Great guys to work with. I like the fast follow up to issues with the build and the quality of the materials used. I disliked the lack of attention and information when it came to our exterior landscaping, irrigation, and driveway work. All of our concrete in the garage, driveway, sidewalk, and lanai were stained with the clay residue from working and walking over it in rainy conditions without cleaning. As a landscape architect, the plants specified for the plant beds and foundation plants are not the best options. [name removed] planted within two feet of the house will grow to be six to eight tall and wide, causing algae and mold conditions, damage to the siding, and yearly maintenance that could have been avoided. The Muskogee Crape [name removed] will grow to be twelve feet tall and wide and was planted four feet from the house and window. The European Fan Palms will grow to ten feet wide and tall and were planted withing four feet of the sidewalk and house. I cleaned the exterior siding to find a constant trail of mud coming out from underneath for several minutes.

Overall a great experience. However when picking options I felt there should have been a window of time for changes. At least a few days. Also more guidance from Sales on recommended add -ons. Outlets and laundry hook up, very disappointed I didn't get more advice.

Overall, we loved working with [name removed] and think he did a fantastic job on our home. We do believe the overall quality is great. We have two major complaints though about our home, which I beleive has more to do with the subcontractors than [name removed]. First, the tile work in our master bathroom. While the rest of the tile work in the house--- in the guest bathroom and the backsplash in the kitchen---was done with care and skill, the tile in the master shower was sloppy and poor workmanship. Crooked lines, inconsistent depth of grout, sloppy grout work, two different colors of grout and broken tiles in our decorative band. Every time we get in the shower we are so disappointed in it; it is not in line with the quality of the rest of the house or what I think [name removed] wants to represent as quality work. Our Master Care rep did have someone look at the shower, and they agreed that it needed to be fixed, but we have had zero follow up since that appointment to let us know when we can expect the work to be started. Our second complaint is with the concrete walkway leading into the house. We noticed before we moved in that there is already a crack in the concrete at the entry of the walkway. It was not until we walked around the neighborhood that we realized that every other house of our model that the walkway had a score line at the place where we have the crack. We are concerned that this will lead to early heaving in the concrete that would have been mitigated if laid properly.

IT WAS THE MOST EASY TRANSITION WE HAVE EVER MADE. WE WERE OUT OF STATE DURING THE WHOLE PROCESS BUT OUR SALES REP (KIM WEGGONER) AND BUILDING SUPERINTENDANT ([name removed]) WERE AMAZING. [name removed] GAVE US A WEEKLY UPDATE ALONG WITH PICTURES EVERY FRIDAY. HE IS THE MOST FRIENDLY AND CHARISMATIC YOUNG MAN WE HAVE EVER MET. HE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND TO ACCOMODATE ALL OF OUR QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS. HE IS [name removed]'S ACE IN THE WHOLE. FANTASTIC PERSON WITH GREAT ENERGY TO HIS POSITION!!
