New home build

Overall, my husband and I are very pleased with Excel's professionalism, efficiency and attention to detail. We were regularly updated and informed as each stage of the home was built. I'd like to mention a few of Excels employees who seemed to consistently go above and beyond - Ellen in sales, David and Chris (new-construction coordinators). Any concerns/questions we had were dealt with immediately.

New Home Build in Heartland

We have nothing bad to say about our experience with Excel Homes in Heartland (Cochrane)

From the start they made it "OUR" home, helpful, professional, knowledgable all while being friendly!

From my wife Nadya, "I was impressed with the way everyone worked "with" us to make it the home WE wanted (not up selling and upgrading what we don't need).
Also the referral credit, gift basket, warranties and everything else makes it sooo worthwhile"

It was also QUICK.. like SUPER QUICK.. we ended up being "homeless" during the build as we put our equity in our old place into the new one.. Nathan (Foreman) knew that and put us up near the top of the list and our build went flawlessly as far as we could tell.

GREAT JOB EXCEL HOMES, we recommend them to anybody.

Excel homes in Mountainview

I bought the home in June and moved in the next January. There was virtually no issues at all with builders, site managers, or showsuite Excel employees. The job was done on time and I moved in with no issues whatsoever. I have been satisfied with all aspects of my move to an Excel home as well as Mountainview. its a great builder in a beautiful area.

New Home - 2nd with Excel

We have just moved into Mountain View in Okotoks and the process was seamless, Ellen was a rock. She steered us as well as anyone could and we appreciate everything she did for us. Luc was also a great help, always accommodating and willing to help where he could. If we were ever to buy another home, it would be with Excel.

New Home Build in Mahogany

My husband and I are quite happy with the process so far. We are very happy with the customer service from the moment we walked in the showhome in Mahogany. We went up to view the Showhome and we were greated by Leon right away asking how we were. From there we went to view the lot map as we had a specific type of lot we wanted for our new build. We were happy to find there was a lot we loved available. From there the process was very easy from choosing everything for the interior and pricing the house out with Doug and since then we have been surprised with how fast everything is going. It is nice that Doug gives us regular updates as well as you can imagine we are excited and always curious what may be going on that day at our house. We are still in the beginning process of the build but so far so good. We are very excited and look forward to moving into our new home.
We are very happy and would definitely recommend Excel. Thanks Doug

New Home Purchase

When we had decided to move to Okotoks, we chose Mountainview as our subdivision of preference due to the location and cozy feel. The homes we looked at were built by Sterling and Excel. We chose excel homes as we found that the added costs of the Sterling didn't outweigh the benefits. Again, this was a personal preference as I know they make great homes as well. Our home that we have now lived in 3 years has been great. I would recommend going and checking out what Excel has to offer. Ellen and Luc are two of the nicest people I've ever dealt with. If they had been in the "customer service" end with excel and not some of the others I had to deal with, I would have given a 5 star review across the board!
