Harold & Geanine’s Experience
How did you find Cypress Homes?
“Our Realtor told us they were really good. We weren’t sure we wanted to build, but we saw one of
Cypress’s Parade homes and really liked it.”
“We liked Cypress’s work because it seemed a little more up-to-date, even 10 years ago when we built,
than what other builders in this area were doing. Everyone else was just doing oak woodwork, but
Cypress was doing things that were more modern with different wood.”
What was your overall impression of working with Cypress Homes?
“We told Mike what we were interested in. We didn’t even get any other bids from other builders. We
decided to go with him. We told him we wouldn’t nickel and dime him, and he said the same thing to us,
and he didn’t. We made small changes here and there, and he didn’t charge us. We trusted him. It was
more like a partnership than just a customer and supplier.”
“Our home was a Parade Home. It was done on time. It’s absolutely beautiful. We’re so proud of it.”
“All in all, we’re really pleased with how we were treated.”
“We have other friends who have had nightmare experiences with their builders. Our experience was so
fun. We’d do it again in a minute.”
“We were lucky to get to work with Mike. I trusted him. He kept me informed. I was told what was
happening every single day, so I had time to make decisions, think about them and change my mind if I
needed to.”
Did any concerns arise during the building process?
“During construction, we changed the plan to make the sunroom bigger but somehow the blueprints for
the basement didn’t get changed correctly. When Cypress noticed the mistake, Mike called us right away,
and he was honest. That’s what made us like him. He was willing to do whatever it took to make it right.
It’s how a builder deals with things like that that make a big difference.”
What are your favorite things about the house?
“Our home is just exactly what we wanted. It’s amazing how easy Cypress made it. Usually, when you
build a house, you think later, ‘Oh, we should have done this,’ but we didn’t.”
“Cypress has a fine group of people working with them.”
“The house is well-built. People comment that’s built very square; it doesn’t crack.”
“My favorite thing is our cabinetry.”
Would you recommend Cypress Homes?
“If we ever had another house built, we’d use Cypress again in a heartbeat.”
“We tell everyone what a great experience we had with Cypress, and that we had the best builder
around.”
