Hello my name is Mark. I have worked for Olthof homes for…read more10 years. I was a superintendent assistant. I enjoyed my job and took pride in everything I worked on. I was there from start to finish of the home. I feel the trades took pride in all there work also. My job was to make sure everything was finished inside and outside of the house before closing. That means no issues were there. Olthof homes are good homes, always passed air pressure test. My daughter bought a home in Chesterton and after 5 years still loves her home. That's funny since I worked on her home. I had to retire at age 62 due to medical problems, After hip replacement I am doing great. I am ready to work for Olthof homes again, I am waiting for a call to come back to work,

Dig deep into their building contract and standards as to what is actually included. For example, only one garage door opener was included in a 3 stall garage. Also, they charge you extra for porta-potties and dumpsters which is obviously out of the buyers control.

This will not be my first time buying a home I bought 1 previously. This builder was a lot better…read more Todd always kept me informed throughout the whole process, very polite and structured. If I had any questions, which was rare because of the fact that he told me everything, I would hear from him that day. Trust me people... that is rare for a builder to be prompt. I had an issue after my warranty was up. Todd fixed, or had it fixed within 24 hrs. It was a Sunday... and not a single fee for it.. still to this day think he payed from his own pocket. Again rare.. so I bought a home for 210k. Which would of been. 250k anywhere. Else. Plus tons of extras from a normal builder, but with Lifehouse they were just how he builds..... perfect house... have friends in the trades, they saw nothing and told me that they dont know how Lifehouse could build such a nice home for that price. I had a builder named Todd whom treated me as a friend instead as a customer! Very very happy with everything.!!!!

We have decided to finish the un-finished basement ( we did not build this house, we bought it after it was completely built). The best thing about this company is they had the plumbing already there if you chose to finish the basement. But we have noticed that the floor joyce between the basement and main floor did not have proper amount of joycing put in. In all fairness we did not contact him about this, he moves very slow on returning phone calls. We did not want to slow down our process on finishing the basement. Also our hot water heater and furnace unit was installed directly in the middle of our basement.. now that's not the worse thing, but sadly there would have been a lot more open area if they had chose to install everything in the corner like other basements. We have also realized that a few of our steps started to cracked and the steps were not leveled out when installed in the basement. And outside our home we've noticed that our steps have started to crack, now that was a less than a year after living here. We had called and talk to the builder about it.. The builder said read our packet that was issued to us during the walk through. I understand this builder like most builders usually try to build as quickly as possible. If you buy a house from this company make sure you do a walk through slowly, we were rushed through our walk through. In reality if you want something right, you would build the house saying everything you want and you're involved with the build. In reality knowing what is done right and wrong. This builder is hard to get a hold of, you usually have to email him. In the end we are happy with our home, but paying for a ranch that cost over a QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS ( upgraded model) it should be darn near perfect.
