Reviews
What customers say
Positive accounts praise the communication and describe the building process as smooth, with one homeowner noting that support continued after move-in. At the same time, one owner reports that the warranty department was nearly impossible to reach and solar wiring took five months to fix; elsewhere, a roof leak reported in March 2024 remained unresolved.
Customer Reviews
Aaron A
Bought a brand-new home in 2023. The sales team was great—until I took ownership. After that, everything went downhill.
The warranty department is nearly impossible to reach. My solar was wired incorrectly and they blamed me—it took five months to fix. My washer outlet kept tripping breakers, the hot water heater was installed wrong so we barely had hot water, and my heater went out around month 23. I was told it wasn’t under warranty and had to wait seven days with no heat in the middle of winter.
Overall, very poorly built home and a frustrating experience.
Jarod Piccolo
Purchased a brand new DeYoung home in 2017. It has been a nightmare. I have had to deal with the following:
Multiple roof leaks including one that was reported March of 2024 that still hasn’t been fixed.
A cracked pex water pipe in the attic above our master bathroom.
A drainage pipe from our courtyard that was unfinished and stopped about 3 feet underground in the middle of our grass.
Termites coming up from our kitchen island.
Drywall cracks through the entire home.
Cracked stucco on the exterior.

De Young Home Builders exceeded my expectations in every way. Their professionalism and attention to detail were remarkable. The quality of construction in my new home is outstanding, and they made the entire building process a smooth and enjoyable experience. Their team was responsive, communicative, and committed to delivering a home that perfectly suited my needs. I couldn't be happier with the result, and I highly recommend De Young Home Builders to anyone looking for their dream home.

My experience with De Young properties was amazing! Walking into one of their model homes blew me away! The setup was beautiful and really helped me picture how I would design my home with the space and open floor concepts. You can tell the home is built with quality material as soon as you open the door.
