Why Buyers Choose Highland Homes

Highland builds everything from smaller, entry-level floor plans to larger homes with luxury design elements.
That makes them attractive to:
  • First-time buyers
  • Move-up buyers
  • Growing families
  • Relocation buyers
  • Buyers downsizing but still wanting quality
Instead of outgrowing the builder, many buyers stay within the Highland brand as their needs change.

Quick Move-In vs. Building From Scratch
Understanding the difference can save you time and money.
Quick Move-In Homes
Best for buyers who:
Are relocating
Need to move quickly
Want more price certainty

These homes are either completed or close to completion.
Building From Scratch
Best for buyers who:
  • Want to choose structural options
  • Prefer specific design selections

Building allows more customization, but it's important to understand:
Base price vs final price
Structural upgrades (changes to layout)
Design center upgrades (cosmetic selections)
Lot premiums
Construction timelines
Having guidance through this process can prevent expensive surprises.
What to Compare Before Choosing Highland
Even with a strong builder, buyers should carefully review:
01
Standard features included in base price
02
Upgrade pricing
03
Lot location inside the community
04
Property tax rates
05
HOA fees
06
Incentives offered at time of purchase

Small differences can add up quickly.
