How is this man still in the business of building homes? I have heard through Facebook that this man has his friends coming to his rescue and writing phony reviews to try and save his tarnished reputation. Do not believe the reviews that say he is a good man and a reputable builder because that is just not true. I purchased one of The Farhlander homes in 2013 for my family after relocating to Missouri for work. Jeff was very polite and professional during the initial phase of the build and leading up until the close date. We were staying in temporary housing for a few weeks and were excited to get into our home. After doing the final walk through we had noticed several issues that were not up to standard and this is when Mr. Farhlander showed his true colors. He became very rude and confrontational with myself and my wife when we would ask him questions about defects. After going back and forth with Mr. Farhlander for over a week, his final response to my wife about a concrete issue with the driveway was simply put " buy a different car or park at an angle in the garage as you enter from the driveway "! This man has a terrible reputation among real contractors and even with the HBA. If anyone knows the contact information for the man in Ozark that is standing up to Mr. Farhlander, please have him reach out to me as we would love to provide support to him and his family against this builder. Mr. Farhlander can tell all the lies he wants but there is nothing he can say to refute photos and proof. This man should Be thrown in jail and you people writing fake reviews should be ashamed of your selves because he is ruining people's lives. And those who read this, I took a $45,000 loss when selling that catastrophe that we purchased from Mr. Farhlander. read more

Nice from the outside.....complete disaster and horrible quality on the inside. Purchased a 3400 sq.ft home that has been an absolute nightmare resulting in a complaint to the BBB and legal action to rectify situation. Builder and superintendent continue to blame us, the new owners, for not identifying issues during final walk thru (Except we are both military and were moving from AZ to MO so we were not able to conduct final walk thru). 7 Pages of corrections and issues had been identified 3 weeks prior and 4 days AFTER moving into the home, they still were not corrected. Paint scuffs and wall damage, stain on base boards in the whole house, 2 inch gap in bathroom closet between door frame and drywall, 1.5 inch gap in basement wall that allows you to see to the outside of the house ! Electrical lines not capped; Ethernet cable only ran to 2 rooms in the home, even though they claimed the entire house is ready for internet. The list goes on and on ! When builder and super confronted, they claim that we should not be getting so upset over cosmetic minor issues ! I highly recommend doing your homework before buying a home from this builder. The ONLY positive to this issue is the short time frame that my family and I will occupy this home before moving into our final retirement home, which is being built by a reputable builder who understands what quality work and customer service mean. No matter how many times a builder can offer to fix something AFTER the fact, it can never replace the poor quality and urgency recommended for a job that requires customer service and quality work the FIRST time around. read more

If i could give less than 1 Star i certainly would in this case. I am shocked that there are only two reviews that are honest about Jeff so far but I hope many more will come forward. My husband and I moved to Missouri in October for his work and our home in Stonegate was not completed on our close date. Our home was more than 3 weeks late and we had to stay with family in Saint Louis while my husband drove 3 hours Away and stayed with friends for work In Springfield. Much like the others our home was not completed on time and we have so many discrepancies we do not know where to turn except to file legal action against Jeff Farhlander and his horrible contractors. His superintendent Jerry is very unprofessional and rude just as Jeff is. Floor vents in our kitchen were placed in the wrong location and when my husband spoke to Jerry he got upset and very rude with my husband and when we asked about the electrical boxes being placed in the wrong place, Jeff's response was that if we didn't like it we didn't have to buy the house. Jeff and his contractors dumped excess concrete in our neighbors yard and also caused lots of damage to his backyard while they were completing our home. Follow the advice of others and stay away from Jeff Farhlander and any home he has built. After doing research i have spoken to several home owners who had to settle out of court because of construction issues with their homes and Jeff trying to bully them. We have a neighbor that is currently going to court because his house is so bad the repairs are over 25,000 and his home is 4 months old. Be Warned read more

I have to strongly agree with Robert. My husband and I have been retired for several years and we contracted Jeff Fahrlander to build our home in Nixa. Jeff is extremely rude and unprofessional with home owners. He has lied to us on several occasions and has told local business shops not to release information about supplies used for my home that he returned for a less quality product. He has threatened to sue me for slander because I have filed a suit against him just as several other home owners in the Springfield area. I had to pay out of my own pocket to have my entire garage floor repaired because his contractors messed it up and he refused to fix it. My floors all had to be replaced and my kitchen cabinets were not installed properly. Do your research before you purchase any home from Jeff Farhlander! He is a very dishonest man who makes claims about how great he is but the truth is he is a very poor contractor and businessman. He is currently being sued by several homeowners in the Springfield area and the man claiming that Jeff is good and honest is probably just s friend trying to help him out. He will pay for the damage he has caused to many many families including a military veteran in Ozark. read more

We have worked with Farhlander Custom Homes several times over the past decade. The homes we had them build were built quickly and with excellent quality. The attention to detail from the builder and his subs show in the finished product. Every single contractor we interacted with on the job was professional and courteous. They would always answer questions we had during the building process and listen to any ideas we had. We knew they had a long standing record of building good homes for more than 2 decades, including surviving the last market downturn in 2010, which is something very few builders in the area can say. As we have had them build multiple homes for us, an occasional issue from time to time has arisen. They have always been responsive and quick to take care of any issues we've had. If they have availability, we plan on having them build more for us in 2018! read more

My wife, 6 month old daughter and I moved from St. Louis to Springfield and Jeff worked with us to make it happen. We had to sell our house there and at the same time were trying to buy one here. He worked with us throughout the process and made it happen. Anything that ever came up (which was slim to nil) with the house was dealt with in an orderly fashion by Jeff either personally or he directed the completion. Five stars for Jeff, because he earned it the old fashioned way. I'd highly recommend Fahrlander Custom Homes for YOUR next build or if your in the market for a pre built house, like we were, it's never a bad way to go. read more

Lived in a home built by Jeff Fahrlander and his craigslist contractors. After 3 months we had serious issues with flooding in our basement as well as the bathroom. When speaking with The builder, he stated that the home warranty doesn't cover these issues and we were basically out of luck. None of the doors in our home closed properly and our garage floor has several large cracks in it. We paid for the repairs ourself before selling the home at a large Loss before being stationed in GA. Stay away from this builder. He will tell you how great he is and that he builds homes for charity's but he screws over more than he helps read more

We moved here from out of state and we are so happy with Jeff and his team. Fahrlander Homes builds a beautiful, quality home for an amazing price. Jeff is a fantastic guy and great to work with. You can tell he truly takes pride in what he does for a living. The reason we chose to work with him is because of his undeniable eye for quality materials and his exceptional customer service. We were never left out of the loop and all of our questions and concerns were addressed immediately. We love our home! Thank you! read more

We could not have asked for a better partner when we decided to build a house. Jeff was so patient with us and so helpful in us even making the decision to build. He provided amazing insight into why or why not an element might work in our design, and then involved us in only those decisions we wanted to make (lighting: yes, wall color: no, countertops: yes, interior doors: no, etc.). Jeff made building a home a very pleasant experience and I am so proud to refer to him as "My builder." read more

We've lived in our home built by Fahrlander Construction for about 10 years now. We enjoyed working with Jeff during the build of our house. His process was easy to understand and the quality of the work was top notch! We only had one issue - my wife dropped a weight onto a tile and it broke. His crew came out and fixed it a few days later! read more

I would not recommend this builder. He is dishonest and a very shady person. He does things quick so he can save money. Things don't work correctly when they are done by Jeff Fahrlander. read more
