Everview is a semi-custom home builder that offers higher end fixtures and features standard in their builds. We were a first time home buyer, new to the whole process and decided to sign our contract with them in October of 21. Our estimated time of completion was 10 months from the start of construction. Land clearing began at the end of December and construction began shortly thereafter. We met with our Superintendent Robert who was friendly, experienced and always readily available to answer any and all questions. As with any construction project there are going to be differences of opinions and discrepancies along the way. All issues were handled by the Director of Operations or the owner Adam quickly and professionally. We needed to be in our home by September and decided to go ahead and close even though we still had 20+ items on the punch list (some that were pretty big items) that still needed to be addressed. Over the next 30 days Robert , our superintendent, made sure all items were complete and worked around my work schedule to get them done. Overall we had a great experience and love our home!! Would recommend to anyone looking for a custom home at an affordable price point.

Cornerstone Homes recently completed a detached carport for our home here in San Antonio (zip code…read more78213). The project involved building a 24' X 19' free-standing structure of cedar-treated lumber with a medal roof. One of the main project requirements was that the carport be built around the trunk of a magnificent live oak tree overhanging the driveway. The completed carport was more than we could have imagined. The project turned out to be a sturdy, well-constructed structure that has added appreciably to the aesthetic and monetary value of our home. Every aspect of the construction was handled according to our construction specifications, in a professional and thoughtful manner. Moreover, we were kept abreast of the project's development from the beginning to the end. We strongly recommend Cornerstone Homes for a home construction project you might be considering.

5 star Architect for a reason!…read more Daniel has an architectural approach that I believe people will find very rare and refreshing these days. He is very giving of his time, knowledge, and is the most collaborative of the 3 Architects we have used on the 2 other custom homes we have built. As an example, even before we signed a contract he made multiple site visits to give us his friendly professional insight about several lots we were considering before we selected the property we ultimately purchased. He was extremely accommodating and friendly throughout the entire process. Collaboration is his priority from the beginning and he made it very convenient through the use of screen share as we designed the home together. We were really impressed with the architectural 3D model that Daniel created. It was amazing that we were able to have a computer-generated 3D model to visualize the complete exterior as well as the outdoor entertaining, outdoor kitchen, and the pool and spa area. We were able to have the majority of our meetings in the evenings after we got off work and we even did a screen share to collaborate on our laptop while we were out of town visiting family. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about both the architectural and contractual aspects of building, but he seems to have a great instinct for what the client is looking achieve. He also had the desire to study alternatives and create several layouts that might make the most sense for the lifestyle we described. Our custom home is amazing and we would definitely recommend him to our friends. We enjoyed the process of the architectural design of our custom home and even more surprisingly we enjoyed the building process that is often stressful. Instrumental in our smooth building process was Daniel's custom home building budget that he accurately laid out from the beginning giving us many options and associated costs. Daniel's project management and selection of the builder really took confusion out of the process and stress off of our lap. Other critical details that made build successful was his guidance and assistance with the interior design, kitchen, and bath design, and selection of all of our interior finishes and fixtures. Our kitchen and bathrooms really stand out with exceptional design and we are very grateful for that. All in all the 3% that he charged to be a complete steward of our project was an easy decision. We will definitely be using him in the future and so will our friends that are very impressed with our the result as well as our highly detailed and accurate design and building process.

Dean's conduct was unprofessional. I have a trust and recently went through a similar process when…read moreselling a home. He requested a copy of my trust agreement (revocable trust), and I mentioned that I did not recall providing it previously.

This reflects unprofessional and unethical behavior. You have the right to ask questions and verify the necessity of any requested documents before sharing your PII with a stranger.

This subdivision is great for first time buyers but the homes do cut corners, no fans installed, no grass backyard, no door knobs on any cabinets, no room for any changes even if you wanted to pay more. They mention during the buying time how much they will HELP, offering names and people but after you get your keys radio silence. I'm still very happy to have my first new home but I went from 5 stars down to 4 stars mainly due to lack of customer service afterwards. Some key points: no closing costs, appliances come with the house, multiple layout plans, simple paperwork, easy. In the process of buying a home! Understand that if you income isn't in a certain bracket you will not get the 0% down loan. We fully researched the area, company, and website which has all the floor plans online, as well as drove through the community. Finally came in to learn more, they ran our info/credit to make sure we qualified. Smart, why give info if you don't even qualify! JASON WILLIAMSON is very informative, very detailed on material, warranty, and home building. Of course he is a salesman, hyped up alot of normal housing points but didn't rush my fiance and I, gave us multiple times alone to discuss our ideas and questions before proceeding. Glad we are choosing LGI! Buying a house should be this simple, informative and exciting! Check them out.

I've lived in Kissing Tree for a couple of years. Unlike other reviews, mine is not based on a…read moresingle issue. Disregard those. KT is not for everyone. If you're a fit, you'll love it. Otherwise, "meh" as another reviewer said. Do you love drinking with friends; socializing with conservative, traditional Texans; enjoying golf, pickleball, bocce ball, or games? Do you want gated security in a vast, somewhat regimented, well-manicured landscaped environment, where golf carts are practically required to fit in both socially and for transportation? Sure, there are many residents not into these, but this describes life for most. For those who learn this isn't for them until after they move-in, there are many homes being resold at a discount by local realtors. KT salespeople don't need a real estate license and are not subject to Texas law that oversees home sales, so beware of the purchase contract of a new home. If you do decide this description meets your personal needs, there is the ongoing financial quagmire that is unfolding. First, the HOA dues run up to over $400 a month. This money should completely benefit the residents, but because of language in the purchase contract, money is siphoned off to subsidize many runaway costs the planners did not adequately foresee. Also, much or most of the infrastructure (roads, pipelines, etc.) has not been paid for. A large bill is coming due soon, as the builders of the development are about to shed the financial burden that has grown into millions, largely due to inadequate management and planning by those hired by the company that created KT. Also, the cost of materials has escalated faster than projected. But, do you want to live in one of the best built homes in Texas. That is right. In spite of all its problems, the homes are among the best built I have seen. And, yes, I was a residential real estate investor for 40 years. Sure there are some mistakes in designing, but the quality of materials and craftsmanship rival anything on the market. What's the best deal for you? Well, if you still want to live with all the benefits and you're of a determined mind like 90+% of the residents to make it work, buy a resale home. Most resales (maybe all) are being sold at a loss to the sellers. Me? I just could not make it work for me socially and will be moving on, thankful for the learning experience. Good luck!

Ryan monitored everything, addressed any concerns with the workers directly, and made sure the job was done right. I never had to do a thing!

You can't ask for better than that. If you have a project, I recommend RYCO hands down. Ryan, you are truly wonderful, and I pray that God continues to bless you immensely!

I'm extremely disappointed with how Main Services handled the issue with our tankless water heater…read more They replaced the water heater, but the original problem was never resolved. We were later told that the actual issue was related to our water and that we would need a water softener--not the water heater itself. I have this assessment in writing from them. When I confronted the company about the fact that we had replaced an expensive tankless water heater without solving the underlying problem, they stopped responding to my messages and failed to follow up altogether. To make matters worse, during one of their visits to inspect the water heater, a significant leak occurred from above the unit and caused damage to my flooring. Mistakes can happen, but what is most disappointing is the lack of accountability and communication afterward. I gave them multiple opportunities to respond and address the situation before writing this review. Unfortunately, once I raised concerns about the unnecessary replacement and the damage to my home, communication essentially stopped. Given the cost involved and the property damage that occurred, I expected a much higher level of professionalism, transparency, and follow-through.

He provides very clear communication regardless if you prefer calls/emails/text, and he was very accessible throughout the whole process. This was especially important as we were buying from out of state with the intention of moving to Austin soon. Kiel gave us recommendations for what pricing to start with and helped with negotiations as well as giving a recommendation for a home inspector so that we would be well prepared on the condition of the house during the option period. Negotiations were data-driven with comps in the area and he also provides monthly market analysis. I would definitely recommend Kiel for home buyers!

He helped me sort through my priorities and ultimately find exactly the house I was looking for. Over the years, we regularly kept in touch about the market and my home's value. When it came time for me to move, there was no question that I wanted Carson to be my seller's agent as well. His advice on pre-sale preparation and pricing made a real difference. We received an offer within two weeks, while many other units in my development had been sitting on the market much longer, even after price adjustments. Having an experienced, knowledgeable agent like Carson guiding me through both buying and selling made all the difference. I would absolutely recommend him.
