Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Everyone was phenomenal to work with and it made the home buying experience amazing. We love our home and can't wait until we get settled.

I'm very happy with their service. I travelled down for an appointment for supplies. I had everybody scheduled. Everybody showed up on time. All the work got done in one day. I'm very impressed. I was out of state, so I didn't have a lot of time. They scheduled everything to be 'ding, ding, ding' throughout the day, so it all got accomplished.

Customer Suggestion

Customer Suggestion - Two people I know in the area built new homes and the safe rooms were incorporated in with the pantry for a tornado shelter. If you had offered this I would have purchased it.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Kayley and the rest of the staff were a pleasure to work with.

Communication

Communication - They go above and beyond to make sure everybody is on the same page. That is very important. Building a house can be very stressful and taunting. Communication solves that. They do a great job with that. A lot of different people are involved, and they do a good job of keeping everyone looped in. At the beginning they tell you how they like to communicate and that is great.

Scope of Work

Scope of Work - They did a great job. They explained every little part of it. When we asked what something was that may be simple and obvious to them, they did great job explaining to us.

We love the neighborhood and style of homes being built in it.

Professional & Organized

Professional & Organized - McCaleb Homes made it easy to shop for a home during a difficult economic environment by using technology to enable us to tour the homes we were interested in. The NterNow feature proved valuable as we could browse at our own pace and not place others at unnecessary risk while doing so. Also, after we chose our home, we were able to easily submit the necessary paperwork via in-person appointment and online, which made the entire process feel streamlined.

Improvement Suggestion

Improvement Suggestion - Even though the color scheme worked out great, I would have liked to have had tile pieces and color swatches brought to house for final approval before install.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - There are a couple thoughts I'd like to share for possible ideas: 1) If a detailed list could be given to the new customer at the time of sale that goes through all the steps of the process, expectations of the customer, and what to expect and when, that would be great! (e.g. you will need to contact so and so for this at this time, at this stage, you will do our design session, at this stage, you will do your lighting, etc). Just an idea of what to expect knowing it is fluid and changes. 2) Would love to have a design portal where you can "try on" different exterior colors on your house and even some interior colors/designs of cabinetry, etc if possible.

Easier Than Expected

Easier Than Expected - Our Builder Lance made it easier for us. Going in I thought building a house and picking everything in the house would be difficult.

Improvement Suggestion

Improvement Suggestion - I could not have had a better experience.

Recognized Excellence

Recognized Excellence - Lance was our builder. Loved how he communicated with us. Lance made everything so much easier for us. He seemed to really care about us. Terri McCaleb was a pleasure to work with. She took time to sit down with us to pick out colors, tile, paint, and counter tops. She did not have any problem working with us after we changed our mind on colors and tile a couple of times. She wanted to make it just perfect for us. Let me talk about Darcy. Darcy was unbelievable. We looked at houses for weeks. Darcy helped us so much. Never got tired of seeing us every other day. He was awesome to work with. Purchasing a house begins with Darcy. He makes you feel like your part of the family. Ford's videos were awesome. Loved sitting down with him to explain what we wanted. He changed plans for us and gave us great insight on things that would work for our new house.

Additional Comments

We loved every day watching the house going up. Building with the McCaleb family was awesome!!!!! Highly recommend them if your looking to build your dream home.

Everything was perfect! Construction, amenities, timing...

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - We love our home.

The construction process from a customer's perspective can be difficult. However, McCaleb Homes does try to minimize the stress of the experience.

Recognized Excellence

Recognized Excellence - Lance did a good job dealing with two detailed oriented (okay OCD) people! We had a few issues, but he was willing to listen to us and it got worked out. Before our decision to build (including a period of about 2 years), Darcy was very patient to answer our questions and he finally got a sale! .

Communication and follow through is terrific

We've been in our new home for almost a month now. When you embark on a six month journey to have a new home, much of what you are seeking is only a concept until it becomes reality. The reality we are experiencing easily matches what we had hoped it would be. Stylish, quiet, comfortable and, overall, a delight. Great neighbors and a developer/builder that cares. It's everything we hoped for.

Recognized Excellence

Recognized Excellence - It's hard to pick someone out because the staff has been universally excellent. Kaylee was delightful to work with. Lance was great; very helpful and accommodating. Terri has wonderful taste and gives great advice. Overall, a wonderful and helpful crew.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - I previously built a house in Fox Lake many years ago. This process was so much better organized and professionally rendered. We're very pleased with the process and the result.
