Builder Profile

Our story begins in 1955 with a simple belief: that we could build better places to live, work and play, one home and one relationship at a time. Since then, The Minto Group has successfully built a fully-integrated real estate company that can meet the needs of any individual, family, investor or business. We’ve accomplished a lot over the years, and as we continue to celebrate new ventures, milestones, innovations and investments, we’re always looking ahead to what’s possible. Read on to learn more about our journey over the past 60+ years.

Homebuilder Customer Reviews

No one knows more about a homebuilder's quality and service than the builder's customers.

Since 1984, Eliant has been independently evaluating the performance of homebuilders across the U.S., Canada, and the Middle East:...read more

  • We ask recent homebuyers to evaluate their builder's purchase process.
  • Then, we ask homeowners to evaluate their builder's quality and service (1) after the first 5-months in the home, and (2) again at the end of the first year.

In "Homebuilder Customer Reviews", we present the ratings and comments collected from new-home buyers at these three points in time.

Eliant verifies that only evaluations completed by actual customers are included in this "Homebuilder Customer Reviews" site. No other evaluations - whether collected by the builder or those appearing on other public sites - are included here. All customer comments are included verbatim, no editing is permitted...read less

The hand off from Sales to Design Center to Builder and the communication of all the staff we had was amazing and something we haven't experienced in other home purchases. The actual people we worked with were awesome!

The toilets do not match their two different colors. The installers told me they will never match because they used two different vendors. The builder tried to convince me it was lighting. It was not it was not resolved and now I’m gonna have to pay somebody to replace all three toilets, the builders comment to me was that seems pretty minute!! There are no words……..

[name removed] is an excellent construction supervisor! Excellent communication and follow through. We still see some poor construction items such as light fixtures poorly installed and different kinds of screws behind face plates. Not enough flexibility in making small/minor changes during build process.

The process was incredibly easy from the start. [name removed] gave an excellent tour and found the perfect lot for us. The selection of Schedule "A" items with [name removed] was fun and easy to do online, remotely with [name removed]. [name removed] was fantastic at helping me choose the interior piece. [name removed] informed us every step of the way on the build and fixed anything before it became an issue. The build-out was quick and easy for us. We never felt pressured into any upgrades but were able to get exactly what is right for us. The house looks amazing and is so well built! We absolutely love it! The walkthrough was so thorough. The closing was also so quick and easy. [name removed], from planet secure has also been so helpful in getting the security and TV selection. All of our questions/requests have been answered so quickly and professionally. I would highly recommend [name removed] and Lattitude [name removed] to anybody looking for a quality home.

I encountered an agent in the sales office that "put me on a list", refused to update me about my placement on the list, and then was removed from the list and put on a different "cottage" list when I was on the Villa list. That cost me 18 months of time and money since there were numerous price increased during that time. Looked elsewhere, but came back and found a new agent who was fabulous. So not happy with the purchasing process.
