D.R. Horton Homes Reviews

Six weeks ago, we purchased a D.R. Horton home and we love it! Our former home was 3,500 square feet and we downsized to 1,800 square feet as our kids are grown and we are active middle age adults who wished to have an attractive, low maintenance home. Well, we found it! The Cali floor plan was perfect for us. It is one story home with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. There are laminate floors throughout the house which makes upkeep of the floors easy since there are no transitional pieces or carpet. Kitchen countertops are durable and beautiful as they are granite with mixtures of black, gray and white. Layout of the home is ideal with an open floor plan and all the rooms are easily accessible for a wheelchair bound person as well. Prior to closing, we hired a very thorough home inspector and any and all issues were properly addressed in a timely manner.

In March of 2025 my family and I will be coming up on our 1 year Anniversary in our new D.R. Horton Home. I’m am so grateful to Ms. Pamela ** and all the help she gave our family. Our family tried 3 year ago to purchase a home but we were hit with a family emergency that required us to back out. I asked Ms. ** to please keep our family in mind when a new Lexington home was being built. And she did just that!

Our experience has been amazing. Our story came about, because all the real estate agents, we contacted couldn't or wouldn't make our home search possible. The only free time we had is on weekends. No one was willing to show us homes on our schedule. Then by an accidental miracle, we met Crystal **. From the first moment, we talked to her on the phone. I told my wife I think we found our real estate agent. Without hesitation, Crystal agreed to meet us the next morning on a Saturday.

My wife and I recently decided to purchase a home in DR Horton’s Ranch Haven in Murrell’s Inlet. We thought documenting the process for others who might consider a home here or in a different DR Horton community would be a good idea. We used a buyer’s agent to help find a home in the area, and our agent, Taylor **, was outstanding. We spent months looking at the area and various homes. We settled on a house in Ranch Haven because it matched our needs and seemed like a good value. DR Horton’s agent, Dina, explained the property well and showed us around.

Radiance - Apache Junction, AZ - 5 Stars to Jaime + DR Horton. For 40 years we've invested most of our biz profits into real estate, not to rent out but to use for our businesses, employees. We've purchased in France. Arizona, California -- from Shea (4 Star), Lennar (3 Star) and got out out of a contract with Geshan (0 Star - horrific, heartless, not to be trusted .. willingly gave up 5k deposit to be just rid of them .. I feel so sorry for the families they screw over). Anyhow, I like DR Horton because they will not sell to investors who want to rent off the bat .. A great experience for newbies. They make it easy and accommodate the buyer without pressure. You get SO much more bang for your buck w DR Horton vs. builders at Blossom Rock across the street. If you are financing I just saw an email that has a 2.99% rate to qualified buyers. You can TRUST DR Horton and feel relaxed during the whole process.

This is my second new built and buying from this builder has been the worst experience. They will not fix or correct items that were installed incorrectly by their contractor not even within the year of construction. Now I have to pay someone to correct their poor work. A cost I didn’t expect to pay on a new home. This builder hires contractors that go out of business after home is built and DR Horton will not correct because they don’t want to pay another contractor to fix the issue. So save yourself the headache and search for a builder that has better reviews.

When we purchased our home we saw the backyard was not graded properly. We brought this up to DR Horton staff and was told it would be fixed. After closing on our house we noticed that sod had been installed in the back yard and the berm so we thought the problem was fixed. Less than 2 yrs later we noticed a hole forming at the berm. We contacted DR Horton and told that our warranty had expired and we could regrade at our own expense. This was supposed to be fixed in the beginning and was not so it should be DR Horton who should fix this but they say they will not. My conclusion is DR Horton will lie to your face and you will be left holding the bag for some big expenses to make it right.

Cameron ** knows her stuff! There was not one question she couldn’t answer! We look forward to our future home here! She made us feel really comfortable and not pressured to make any rash decisions. We really appreciate that sales approach since we are also in sales. We really like the style of the houses here. I think it’s gonna be a beautiful community when it’s finished.

We own a 7 year old D.R. Horton Express home. Recently while running our builder installed dishwasher we detected a strong burning odor coming from the dishwasher. We unplugged and pulled out the dishwasher only to find the electrical connections burning and melting where the contractor connected the electric plug on the dishwasher. DR Horton has the worst customer service and worst subs. They never stand behind a sold unit.

I purchased my home roughly two years ago and have experienced issues from the very beginning—poor electrical work, uneven tile, and doorknobs that constantly fall off-just to name a few. I’ve reached a point where I can’t stress over the small stuff anymore. However, my main concern has been the AC unit. It has caused problems since day one. I’ve had the contractor out numerous times, but the system still doesn’t cool the house efficiently. Living in Florida, this has become a serious issue. Based on feedback from different vendors, I believe D.R. Horton may have tried to cut costs by installing a unit that’s too small for the size of the home. If you’re considering building a new home, I strongly recommend doing thorough research before making a decision.
