Jake and his staff were very professional. We always had timely communication from everyone involved. I am happy with the quality and would recommend them to anyone.

We have been looking into building a home for the first time and Happe Homes has been so responsive and professional and have answered all of me and my husbands questions. Without a doubt we will be going with Happe Homes.

Their customer service is amazing! We are so Happe my husband and I worked with Happe Homes.

We loved working with Happe Homes on our custom home build in Van Meter! It is beautiful and the process was as seamless as a new home build could be. We appreciated our customer service representative, Sierra, and our site superintendent, Stephen. They were there to answer any questions along the way. I would highly recommend Happe to anyone looking to build!

We had such a great experience from start to finish with Happe Homes! We wanted to create our dream home, they immediately understood our vision and made it come to life! The process was painless and done in a timely manner. We have received sooo many compliments and recommend Happe Homes to everyone!!

A great company. Happe really stands by there work. Through the build process the are knowledgeable an detail oriented. There warranty is top notch and everyone goes above and beyond. I cant say enough good things about my expense with Happe Homes.

They build great homes. Tough to get their attention when busy. Staff was very kind...They threw in a few freebies too!

We have lived in our Happe Home for 3 years now, and still love it! Great process, wonderful variety of selections, and quality materials. Couldnt be happier.

We have been in our Happe home for 60+ days and are extremely satisfied with their product. The quality is second to none! We built from scratch by picking one of their floor plans and modifying to our needs. The staff walked us through the process step by step and it never felt too overwhelming. They gave us all the information needed to make the right decisions for us. Erin was amazing to work with and helped us make our design vision come to life. Chris, although dually representing us and Happe, was always fair and informative.

He always put our questions first and we trusted his expertise. Happe has been extremely responsive in the few, small hiccups weve had since moving in and got them fixed right away. We cant say enough good things about this builder. If youre thinking of building, we HIGHLY recommend this amazing builder.

Bought a new Happe Home spec in Waukee and have loved our experience! Found our home close to them putting finishing touches. Luckily pretty much all the finishes are things I would have selected. Weve been in our home for 5 months now and had little to no issues. All minor things that come with any new home purchase. Their warranty team is super responsive. Advantages using HH - one year home builder warranty, free moving up to 8 hrs, friendly owners/employees, quality products and tasteful finishes.

First home, great looks and design. Nice kitchen and room layouts. Felt that its cheaply built. I would venture to other builders and see how they do in the future. Not too great customer service too. I remember calling the front desk multiple times for a fix and then finally had to get Jake to get a call back or send someone over. Overtime it became too much of a pain to be calling them so I just let it go and accept what we bought. Lots of nice promises before we close, but after, its like we are just annoying them. My disappointments are what happens after you close. If thats how you do business, then we wont return.

We just moved into our "Happe Home" and couldn't be more excited about our house! We are so thankful to everyone at Happe Homes for making our house exactly how we wanted it. Making selections for the home is always challenging but it definitely helped being able to visualize our options in Happe's showroom. Once construction started, everything was so easy. Kevin was great at communicating with us, making sure everything was completed to the best standard and hit our closing date with no issues! We will definitely recommend Happe Homes to our friends and family. - Lindsay & Andrew Becker.
