What our customers are saying

BuildTopia is pretty easy to use. We run our entire business through it. Without it, we back to spreadsheets and phone calls.

— Guy Dark, Vice President of Purchasing

NHLS has been a game changer for our marketing department! The team at NHLS has worked tirelessly to make sure we were able to integrate our website with our builder management system … We were able to easily communicate with the team our specific use case scenarios and the output was an intuitive, user-friendly software that makes the daily workload as home builder marketing professionals much easier!

— Whitney Pryor, Inbound Marketing Manager

We are excited for the 3 year partnership with NHLS. We see the long term potential for this web destination and feel it fills a void for consumers in the market place. We at Red Tree believe this will help us connect with the new buyers marketplace on a different level than we are used to. It's going to be an exciting 3 years!

— Brett Taylor, CEO/Founder

My team at Opus Homes is incredibly impressed with NEWSTAR Design Studio Manager software. As a home builder, a segment of our business revolves around our Decor Studio. The "wish list" feature really helped narrow down exactly what our clients wanted for their home based on price, aesthetics and overall appeal.

— Kimberly Bianchi, Decor Studio Manager

Our Design Consultants have now completed 100 charts with ease and ability to create addendums while performing color appointment. This has been made so easily accessible with Design Studio Manager.

— Louis Tancredi, Corporate Controller

When our buyers see that there is a comprehensive, engaging program in place, it gives them immediate confidence in their purchasing decision, and shows them that we care. Homeowner Central helps us create a more productive building process, streamline warranty requests, raise customer satisfaction, and ultimately, scale our business with confidence.

— Linda Rempel, Customer Care Manager

The Homeowner Central platform will positively impact almost all facets of our business, from how we engage and interact with our homeowners to how we are perceived as an industry innovator. But more importantly it will allow us to provide an enhanced home ownership experience and allow our residents to better understand and enjoy their home.

We could not do what we do without BuildTopia. This system puts real-time information the hands of our superintendents, trades, and back here in the office. This sounds straightforward but it’s crucial. Our team is always on the same page.

— Todd Everest, Director of Construction

— Karen Dresher, Director of Operations

Our relationship with Constellation HomeBuilder Systems goes beyond software. Constellation has been with us every step of the way.

From BuildSoft, to Builder360 and now NEWSTAR, we have been able to operate more efficiently to further strengthen our businesses.

— David Grant, Owner
