Built a home in Mahogany

This was our second home in Mahogany, the first was with a different builder. The quality of the Morrison Home is second to none, they were very pleasant to deal with and were able to accommodate all of our requests during the build phase. The after build support has been excellent as well. We shopped around quite a bit before signing the papers with Morrison and in my opinion you get a much better product with Morrison than the other builders. We would definitely build with them again.

Morrison Home in Mahogany

We are so impressed with Morrison Homes in Mahogany. From start to finish, the entire process was dealt with professionalism and integrity. Ruth and Neil were fantastic is answering all our questions and concerns. If they didn’t have the answers they ensured to follow up till they found them. I HIGHLY recommend choosing Morrison Homes, everything from their standards to craftsmanship. We love our house and are so proud to show it off to our friends and family.

Morrison Homes New Built

It all started when me and my fiance went for a drive in Legacy one Sunday afternoon. We stopped by a few showhomes with no actual plans to buy a new house in the near future. Our last stop was at one of Morrisons move up homes, which we really liked. Before we left we met with Michelle and we immediately felt a connection. She showed us a few of the models and we knew instantly which one we wanted. A week later, we bought the house through Michelle and Brad! They've been very supportive throughout this whole process. It all happened pretty quickly, but we were happy with our decision and never looked back since. It is currently being built and we couldn't be happier with the results. Construction has been going smoothly and we were pleasantly surprised at how clean and organized it is in the house. We both work in the construction industry and have an engineering background which we knew that meant the design consultant would have their work cut out for them. Fortunately, we were matched with Angela for the design studio meetings. She was great! She was patient and understanding, especially when we couldn't see eye to eye on certain design items. Overall, the experience was amazing. She knew what look we were looking for and we have her to thank for the design of our master suite! I would definitely recommend Morrison Homes, they have been great and if we ever build another house they will be at the top of our list.

Chateau underway, we're so pleased

We're in the initial stages of our build and so far, every conversation with our lawyers, bankers, real estate agents and friends that we've told this to- have nodded their heads and given us big smiles and thumbs up, assuring us that we've made an excellent choice from their experiences. The ladies in Legacy have been outstanding and so accommodating, Michelle for driving us all the way out to the Ridge to show us what there was to offer, and wowing us instantly. Brad was very fun to deal with as we began putting our plans to paper and now that we've made our Meeting #1 and began making decisions, Allison has been so patient and thorough. We're looking forward to the next few months.

home building

This is the second time we buy from Morrison. But instead of a spec home like our previous one, we decided to build with them. The whole process was a pleasant experience. Even though we were picky, they were patient with us and provided lots of infomation and help. The house turned out just the way we wanted it and we can't be happier.

Great sales staff, confused construction managers, and disappearing paperwork.

Our sales staff were great, Morrison offered the best quality and the most house for the best price. We received a promo with a free garage and a few thousand to spend on kitchen and flooring upgrades. We loved the selection options for Morrison and the homey yet efficient and functional floor plans. We had a great experience making our selections although trying to coordinate kitchen cabinets, counters, walls, and backsplash was terribly daunting.

When construction began it took a few months for our foundation to be poured, after the frame was up it took a while to get any trades I so the build of our house took a total of 10 months for a land 1600 Sq ft home.

The selections we made during the planning process were constantly being missed during construction and thank goodness for their open house policy or everything would have been wrong and finished at possession. We had to remind them to knock out walls for our pocket doors, move the position of our island so there was room to walk by it on one side, set our shower heads to the requested heights, after taping and corners were done we had to remind them that we selected bull nose rounded corners so they had to rip out and redo every corner in the house. We had to sign a paper declining a fireplace in our living room on three occasions after selections. In selections we said no fireplace but it kept coming back to haunt us for some reason.

Over a year after taking possession we had contractors show up unannounced and climb onto our bedroom window to install shutters. It was very jarring and unexpected. No one emailed us, no one called, knocked or rang the bell. My wife works nights and this was a time when she sleeps, it felt very intrusive and violating. We called the warranty manager and he gave us the run around in a major way, it was very upsetting and then he told me he would not talk to me if I was being upset.

I went above to his boss and he has promised to help us resolve this issue so I am hopeful they will.

Our warranty technician was amazing he has gone above and beyond the call of duty and it has been wonderful.

Our salespepole were incredible and also went above and beyond for everything!

The house was built by apprentices but they did a decent job, any concerns in labour or work during the building process were addressed very well for the most part.

It really is a beautiful home though it took us $30,000 in upgrades to make it that way, However the quality is great.

New build in Nolan Hill

We toured the parade in Nolan Hill and thought Morrison would be to expensive for us. Boy were we surprised. Not only were the least money, but the quality of their standards are what other builders would have charged us for. Brian and Angela were the most trustworthy team we found in our entire search. If your thinking of a new home, check out Morrison in Nolan Hill.

An honourable business

When we first set foot in the show homes in the new community of Symons Gate we were impressed with the range of options and the general layouts and features of the models on display. The area is beautiful, set right on the North edge of the city overlooking the Symons Valley Ranch and sprawling farmland beyond. The developer’s models were nice but too small for our tastes, another builder’s were big and beautiful, but a bit out of our price range. We then came upon Morrison, the baby bear to our Goldilocks. Their homes were spacious, practically designed, aesthetically pleasing, and sat in the middle of the three builders on the price spectrum. Circumstance and timing seemed opportune, thus began our journey into our new Morrison home.

From the beginning we felt as though we were working with Morrison’s A-team, led by the professional, friendly, experienced, and expertly knowledgeable Kim in sales and supported by Erika and Kyler, whose experience and assistance we valued greatly. Lindsey in the selection studio and our site supervisor Jeremy were also exceptionally professional, personable, and adept at their respective roles. Sure we bought a structure and land, but we were equally sold on the reputation and cordiality of those we encountered during the process. As we submitted our initial down payment with the natural trepidation of first-time home buyers, we became increasingly confident that whatever issue, concern, or question we had, it would be dealt with promptly, professionally, and reasonably. This reassurance made what can be a huge strain on relationships, time, and finances an almost entirely smooth process where we got to relax and watch our dream become reality. Every time we visited the home (which we were free to visit whenever we desired – about every 2-3 days) something significant had been accomplished. Work progressed more rapidly than we had anticipated, but errors were few, and the quality of craftsmanship was consistently high. Kim quoted us nine months and the house was delivered in nine months, no delays, no problems.

During the entire construction period we had one difference with Morrison regarding the placement of a set of light switches. The drawings were a little obscure in this particular instance which had us believe the switches were in one place and the builder believe they were in a slightly different location. Because a change order would run us about $200 at this point, we had a brief correspondence with the design studio and ended up splitting the cost of the electrical move, which we considered a reasonable outcome. Morrison staff did their best to foresee and address any issues, large and small, before we brought them up, and were honest about the 80/20 rule, i.e. they will find approximately 80 percent of the issues before possession and we will likely locate the other 20 percent after possession. They created a login ID for us to use their portal/website to log any issues we have and promptly scheduled ‘trades days’ when the issues would be fixed, making it easy to record and communicate concerns. We didn’t have to ask or badger them for clear deadlines; they created their own schedule and stuck to it.

We are now about a month into our new home, and while the house is approximately 2300 square feet, it might as well be a mansion to us. We see it as Japanese castle on the outside, French Bistro on the main level, and Nordic cabin in the living areas upstairs. We were actually surprised at how accurately our vision became a reality. While we can only speak our story, our experience with Morrison Homes was nothing less than exceptional and in a business where there are often corners to be cut and inflated prices to be extorted, we came away feeling that Morrison Homes was a fair, professional, and above all, honourable business. We love our new home, and highly recommend Kim, her sales team, and the Morrison Homes family if and when you are in the market for a new home.
