Community Profile

Olson Homes logo
#1 Builder for Best Overall Customer Experience
2017-2018 & 2020!

Each Olson community starts with a simple question. How can we give homeowners the best quality of life possible? The answer starts with where we build. Committed to seeing the potential of the urban landscape, we re-entitle, rezone, and develop underutilized parcels, building energy-efficient homes that are close to jobs, key transportation links, and numerous recreational and entertainment options. Since most of our communities are in mature neighborhoods, they require minimal infrastructure, helping to keep construction costs low, taxes reasonable, and home prices attainable. Each Olson community name includes the word “walk” because our vision is for homeowners to be able to exit their front door and walk to shopping, restaurants, cafes, and schools, engaging with their neighbors and becoming part of the fabric of their cities.

Claremont, CA, on Oct 20, 2026

[name removed] and [name removed] have been a pleasure, and the primary reason we are in the home today! [name removed]'s expertise on the process, caring attitude, and patience made us feel like we were dealing with family. [name removed] has given countless hours and effort to making sure the home is as comfortable as possible! Both carried and represented the [name removed] brand at the highest level!

Ease of move in, home quality. There are a few design aspects that don’t make sense (a door doesn’t open all the way and goes into the bathroom) but other than that, it’s great.

What I like most is the transparent home-buying process; what I dislike most is that the payment method doesn't accept cashier check drafts.
