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.

Overall, I had a very positive experience from contract through move-in. The process was smooth, communication was good, everyone was very friendly, and the home was in great condition at move-in. Any minor issues that came up were addressed, and overall I was very happy with the experience.

The whole process was pretty easy. I loved working with [name removed], he was informative, friendly, and patient. I really felt like I was in good hands with [name removed] and that he was going to make our dream come true (which he did). Working with [name removed] as the loan officer was great, I leaned a lot from him. And lastly working with [name removed] was amazing, she really cares about the customers and you about how the home works.

Big Thanks for [name removed] and [name removed] for making the purchase experience a wonderful experience. We were not local but yet the experience was seamless, prompt, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile. They took the time and effort to walk us thru the contract and were readily available to answer any questions or issues that came up. We hope this home will be our retirement home in the future! Thank you.

I appreciated the reps responding to me quickly when I had a question. Glad you had docusign since I lived in another town. Money transfer was done without a hitch! Everyone was pleasant to work with. I didn't like the fact that I could not upgrade the carpets to the color I like, the density or the pad thickness.

Everything was pretty easy and straightforward. [name removed] was able to clarify everything before signing and made it as easy as possible, [name removed] was always available for any questions I had throughout the loan process and even just checked in on occasion to make sure I wasn’t worried. [name removed] thoroughly went through all the features of my home with me and let me know he’s always available in case anything breaks down.

I really like the process. It was so smooth. They were so cooperating and helpful throughout the process whenever I had any questions, they always reply me very soon specially [name removed], the loan lady. She was just awesome the way she helped with each and every question made me very smooth and heaven to buy the house from Risewell. [name removed] was equally a lovely lady. She was so quick to reply. Recently we had a few issues in our home and I emailed her and within like few minutes she replied me back, and however, I have opened the tickets on the official site, but she was like so knowledgeable so good to talk so positive.

Quality of work is below expectations. No difference between [name removed] homes and other low quality mass builders. Customer service after move-in is the worst.

There was a significant discrepancy with my final loan estimate that greatly differed from my initial loan estimate. While the lender did resolve the issue swiftly, it was concerning that such a discrepancy was overlooked before sending it to me to sign.
