We are so pleased with our home in Farmhouse Estates! The basement was finished in record time and was exactly what we wanted. The process was seamless and Michelle is awesome to work with! Ryan took care of every detail and was so responsive to any issue that arose. We also used The Builders Pool Company for the installation of our pool and they were equally as impressive. We are thrilled with the home, pool and neighborhood! Many thanks to the whole team!
Built a custom home with Walt and his team and was extremely satisfied. We were on a tight timeline to complete and close before our rate lock expired and Walt made it happen. Very easy to work with, very responsive, and very concerned we were happy with the final result. We especially enjoyed working with his design manager and production manager. Would absolutely build another home with Walt's group, no question.
Rick, we are honored to receive such a great review! We work hard and have this process of delivering the high quality construction down to a science, and are so happy to help things come together for our clients. Thanks for trusting us and giving us the opportunity to do what we love!
We built a custom home with Walt Schumm. We love our home and the building process was an overall positive experience. Ryan was easy to work with and very responsive to questions and concerns.
Thank you Casey! The positive experience was felt on both sides and we are so happy you love your home!
Living in Farmhouse Estates has been everything we wanted and so much more. We have loved our customized finished basement and the great customer service as we have adjusted to our beautiful home with all its high end custom finishes. We highly recommend Walt Schumm builders they always go above and beyond and each and every team member along the way is a pleasure to work with.
Thank you for the honest and positive review! We are so proud of Farmhouse Estate, and enjoy being able to build beautiful homes and trusting relationships with our clients!
From inception to completion the entire process was fun and easy. Working with the designer, Michelle and the building manager, Ryan made the process for us so smooth. The entire staff were pretty incredible. We LOVE our custom home.
Teresa, we always want to hear feedback, both positive and constructive criticism, but it sure makes us feel proud when we hear from great customers like you that we checked all the boxes while delivering your home! Thank you for giving us this big responsibility and trusting us with such an important investment.
As a REALTOR, I enjoy showing my clients the homes built by Walt Schumm. Today’s buyers love the Craftsman style exterior and appreciate the contemporary floor plans that promote easy living for any size family. The high quality of construction plus finishes that are timeless, add to the home’s resale value in future years. You will love the thoughtful conveniences that Walt puts into his custom homes that sets him apart from other builders.
Thank you Gale! Resale is definitely a big asset for our home buyers, and we are proud to help them with their biggest investment.
We absolutely love our home and the experience of working with Walt and his team was top notch! Our home is stunning and the quality is over the top!
Thank you for your review, the team truly appreciates it. We are glad you love your home!
We are in our 2nd Walt Schumm home and couldn’t love it more. The attention to detail, beautiful design and amazing customer service can’t be beat. Ryan and Michelle were always available to answer our questions and guide us through the process.
We really appreciate the review Beth! Working with you has always been enjoyable. Thanks for the trust you place in us to create your home and biggest investment.
Walt and Ryan held up their end of the agreement. Work was completed on time, and at times ahead of schedule. They communicated frequently and effectively throughout the duration of the project. The entire project was completed to my upmost satisfaction. I have trusted Walt’s work for years and will continue to use him for future projects.
Thank you so much for the kind words. It's always a pleasure to work with you!
