Pros

I can't think of a single one- they are not true to their word and use shady hiring practices... they will lie and make promised they have no intention of keeping just to get bodies on the roster.

Cons

Liars and scammers. Small group of egomaniacs out for themselves, these people are NOT legit! Run...

New Home Star Response

10y

This review is not at all indicative of our company and its leadership. The accusation of lying doesn't match up with our strategy or intent. To say that New Home Star wants to "just get bodies on the roster" is so far from what hundreds of our team members have experienced while going through our five-touch selection process. When I read "liars and scammers and egomaniacs", I honestly wonder if you even posted this review for the right company. Had you said, "imperfect and often-failing", I would know you had the right group. We are imperfect and we do fail often. I am sincerely sorry if we failed you. If you worked at New Home Star though, you would not question our intent.

Pros

Not only is New Home Star a company with a solid business plan, with great tools for new home sales agents and home builders alike, but they also genuinely care about their employees and customers.

Cons

With success comes growing pains. This is a great problem to have and the team at the home office works diligently to correct any stumbling blocks that the extraordinary growth of the company presents.

Pros

The management is highly driven and their skill level exceeds all others that I have had the opportunity to work with in my over 20 years in the business. Senior management is highly regarded by the employees and the founder works hard to keep the firm aligned to its core values of providing excellent careers for the sales team as well as selling more home more profitably for their new home builder clients. There is a strong focus on providing advance career opportunities for employees and the corporate culture is one that appreciates and looks for ways to reward its employees.

Cons

This is a entrepreneurial company that is growing very quickly. People are expected to wear many hats and to have patience to work through the growing pains.
