Situated in the highly sought-after Piedmont School District, Bison Creek residents  enjoy the best of both worlds with a beautiful, country feel, while also enjoying the benefits of being minutes from John Kilpatrick Turnpike. With a playground, well-lit sidewalks for evening strolls or a quick jog through the community, and plenty of green, open space, it will give residents the lifestyle they desire.

I have zero dislikes with Ideal Homes. I've had nothing but a wonderful experience with them. My sales associate was amazing and patient. The design process was so fun and I appreciated the price of the upgrades being wrapped into the total price of the home. I loved being able to visit the house at any time during the building process. Ideal was also able to meet my closing deadline that I needed in order to move out of my apartment at the end of lease and into my home, which I am so grateful for. Customer Service has been great with any issues once I moved in as well. Mr. [name removed] is awesome!

There were several major issues with the systems at move-in (main electrical was cut and had to be re-run with temporary lines, sewer was cut and caused a backup in the house). Also have had quite a few minor issues that required the trades to be back out to repair.

The process of the purchase was pretty smooth. We love our house! One of the things we feel were not taken care of was.....We brought attention to the carpet and tack strips throughout the house and on the stairs. The tack strips throughout the house are felt when walking through thresholds and on the inside of the steps, when not wearing shoes. We were told the carpet was done correctly.

[name removed] and [name removed] were great from start to finish. [name removed] worked with our schedule to show us houses. After the second showing with [name removed] we were able to make a decision. One of reasons we went with Ideal Homes was due to the fact that each home is unique. Your living in a neighborhood where not every house is the same. That's important to us. The people that live here smile and wave. We love the quiet, and even though homes are being built next to us we cannot hear the construction in our home. The hardest part was waiting about 35+ days to close. I'm not sure if this was due to the type of loan we chose, but it was worth the wait. I now commute about 40 mins to work, but this home is worth the commute. To be in a safe neighborhood is a peace of mind. Overall, we are impressed from start to finish. Thank you for making our first home buying experience a less stressful one!

Honestly, it was great. The biggest pain has been the HOA and their lack of communication with the design center. The design center recommended extra concrete on the side of our house for trash cans and then we received a fine from the HOA for having our trash cans visible from the street.

I had an issue with my dishwasher/garbage disposal that took some time to resolve. There was a lot of back and forth as to who was responsible, appliance supplier or electrician. I wish this had been resolved in a more timelt fashion but, ultimately, the issue has been taken care of. My biggest complaint is regarding a commitment made to me prior to closing regarding the dead grass that had been laid in my yard. I was promised in text that this would be taken care if the grass did not respond within 2 weeks of closing. Ultimately, it required several months and considerable assertiveness on my part before this situation was corrected. It was such a simple fix and it did not have to be handled this way. It is the only thing that keeps me from being able to give a perfect rating which is unfortunate. Promises made should be kept.
