Pros

None, insurance benefits would be the best reason, The turner over within the DFW region is rampant! Between upper and middle management, construction, and sales, you’ll always be one of the new guys trying to figure out how to function in your job. If your in Sales, stay away. Due to the high turnover in construction, homes are poorly built , rarely finished even close to schedule, high cancellations, lack of warranty, it’s difficult getting off draw because of the long period of time it takes to build. This company’s sales contract says that the buyer must close on the home when “substantially complete”. This means there is a long list that continues to grow as the construction team keeps turnin* over. Just look how long the homes have been in the community compared to the competition. They are outsold by large numbers. Pricing changes every weds. This wipes out your current contacts

Cons

Everything is a con! Massive turnover, poor pay!This is for the 2017-2018 periods,

Pros

Great culture; Everyone helping one another; Seeing lots of sales growth recently; Excellent work/life balance; Competitive compensation package

Cons

I know nothing about the "fake reviews" to which others on this site are referring. I'm doing this on my own and I think other employees are too. Also, several of the negative reviews are from sales agents in 2017. We had a lot of turnover in our sales department in early 2017. We have since hired new management and many new agents and they are kicking butt right now....just had a record quarter!
