Julie YoungAug 122 min readTim and Abby MAs a young millennial couple, we wanted to share our experience building with Teal Creek Homes. We were very nervous about building a home, especially during the pandemic. We started our journey by vetting several builders so that we could better understand what we were getting ourselves into. During that process, it became apparent just how lucky we were to have met Jim and Julie. We had been searching neighborhoods for months and luckily found that Teal Creek Homes had some lots in our ideal neighborhood. The first meeting was amazing. Jim was a wealth of information about the home building process. His experience on the commercial side and the fact that he was LEED certified really stood out to us. He was able to show us several plans that we were able to tweak that balanced our needs and our budget. Julie really delighted us with her creativity. She really spent the time to get to know our style and then guided us from there during all our selections so that our home truly felt like our home. Jim and Julie nailed our budget allocations early on so that we were able to make conscious decisions about what we wanted during the selection process. Julie was with us at every appointment and clearly marked what would keep us in or out of budget during a time where prices were fluctuating tremendously. The quality and diversity of our flooring, stonework, plumbing, and electrical options really stood out to us. Julie ensured we made selections in a timely manner so that we could stay on target to close. Julie’s expertise allowed us to make decisions and tradeoffs on options that we really wanted while keeping our budget balanced. Once we broke ground, the quality of Teal Creek’s construction and subcontractors shown through. The quality of materials, their craftsmanship was second to none. During a time of crazy supply chain delays and rising cost, Jim and Julie kept the build on track, and we closed on time. ON TIME! Our neighbors, who were also building, couldn’t get flooring, farming lumber, cabinets, and appliances on time and it’s resulted in substantial delays. Jim and Julie were able to work their magic and its clear they’ve assembled one heck of a crew to accomplish what they did during the pandemic. We didn’t have to make any compromises on our selections due to the supply chain shortages and were kept in the loop throughout the process. We’ve been moved in our home for several months and every day my wife and I say, “We love our home.” That is all thanks to Jim and Julie. If you are in the area and considering building, look no further than Jim and Julie Young with Teal Creek homes. Don’t just take our word for it, just look at the other reviews online and the 2021 Des Moines Home Builder Association Home Show Expo awards, Teal Creek homes swept the competition.
