Ideal Homes Aren't Cheap

Ideal Homes Aren't Cheap

Some builders might cut corners or build cookie-cutter homes. Some builders are difficult to work with and you won't see them again after you get the keys to your home. And frankly, the unknown problems behind the walls of a pre-owned home might shock you.

But Ideal Homes & Neighborhoods believes that if you're investing in your first home or forever home, it should be built with quality standards that go far beyond what's required to deliver a home that stands the test of time. Your new home should be something that the builder would be proud to live in themselves. Your new home should be as individual as you are and not a bland repeat of the home next door. You should love your home after a year as much as you do the day you move in.

Why Ideal Homes Are Worth Every Penny

Above and Beyond Customer Service

The award-winning Ideal Customer Care team sets Ideal homes apart from any other home - new or pre-owned. Imagine it's the middle of summer in Oklahoma and your a/c stops working. Would you rather deal with a 3rd-party home warranty that will send someone out next week or with your personal Ideal Customer Care representative who will coordinate a free repair as quickly as possible? While rare, you may encounter an issue from time to time after moving into your new Ideal home. Unlike other builders who rely on third-party companies to manage warranty issues, our own Ideal Customer Care team holds themselves to the highest standard of customer service. 

"We had an issue with our air conditioning system over the Memorial Day weekend and I told myself it might be next week before we see anyone. To my surprise, an a/c service person pulled up and within a couple of hours fixed our issue. This was way beyond my expectations and was very much appreciated too. Thanks to the people of Ideal Homes." - Ideal Homeowner

Completely Unique Homes

Ideal prides themselves on the vast floor plans, design selections, and home styles available in an Ideal neighborhood that set their homes apart from any other builder in the same price range. Unlike many new homes that look exactly the same as the home next door, every Ideal home is unique. They purposefully don't pack in expensive unwanted features and instead, focus on individuality and the most important features to you.

While other builders only allow you to select from a few packages of colors and design styles, the trained professional Ideal designers hold your hand through the selection of many different options for your home. The Ideal design team curates options from the Ideal Design Studio - the largest of its kind in Oklahoma. They also hand-select every feature of pre-designed homes to create the most curated and unique home for you.

Energy Advantage Certified

Would you rather pay extra for your heating and cooling bills each month or make that extra Amazon purchase? You definitely won't find this in a pre-owned home or new home from another builder: Ideal Homes & Neighborhoods is the only builder in Oklahoma to test every home* with a "blower door test" which detects any inefficiencies and air leakage throughout the home.

Every Ideal home* is Energy Advantage Certified and are the only homes in Oklahoma that come with a guaranteed maximum amount of energy needed to heat and cool your Ideal home each month. If an Ideal homeowner exceeds the maximum guaranteed heating and cooling usage during the first three years of home ownership they will be reimbursed through the Energy Advantage partner.

Maximum Storage & Improvements

One of the biggest reasons our homeowners choose Ideal Homes & Neighborhoods is due to the innovative floor plans offering maximum storage. Each floor plan is designed and optimized by an architect focused on delivering kitchens with large pantries, closets in every corner possible, and even organization that comes standard in each bedroom closet. Floor plans are updated continuously to improve storage options and flow. 

There's a significant difference between walking into an Ideal home and walking into a pre-owned home or home from another builder. An Ideal home has significantly more natural light, more inviting entryways, more storage, and more gathering space on the covered patios than most other homes. The Ideal team innovates floor plans constantly to make each floor plan the most inviting home possible.

Quality That Stands The Test of Time

The Ideal quality standards go beyond what you'll see in a pre-owned home or from other builders because standards are set by Ideal's engineering partner who is world renowned for their construction research and testing. While other builders simply meet the standards set by code, Ideal goes above and beyond on energy efficiency, structural support, and high-quality materials. Ideal homeowners are so satisfied with their homes even a year after moving in that Ideal boasts one of the highest customer satisfaction scores in the country.

When an Ideal homeowner is ready to move up to their next home, most include the Ideal name as a significant selling point to their future buyers because it carries a reputation for quality and trust.

Neighborhoods Aren't An Afterthought

Drive through other builders' neighborhoods and you'll see house after house without much attention given to the idea of building community within the neighborhood. Drive through a community of pre-owned homes and you may not see a soul outside. But drive through an Ideal neighborhood and you'll find families fishing in the ponds, community 4th of July parades, dogs chasing frisbees in the wide-open green space, people running on the trails, picnics at the playgrounds, and kiddos shrieking with joy at the splash pads and pools. 

Ideal Homes & Neighborhoods creates every neighborhood with intention: playgrounds close enough to walk to, green space to play and explore, beautiful trails to walk or run, and an overall sense of joy that this is more than a neighborhood. This is a community.
