Positive: Quality
Recently purchased a home from Chris and was SO impressed with the attention to detail on the walk through. She followed through on all items addressed and was super helpful and professional. Definitely recommend this builder.

Buy one and if you can't tell what is wrong with it then you're as good a builder as she is. She has no clue and every thing can be fixed with caulk for the one year warranty. Worst builder I have seen in 35 years.

We knew we wanted to build our dream home but didn't know where to start when picking a builder. Our realtor immediately introduced us to Homes by Chris and it was the best decision we ever made!! From the very first meeting with Chris and Roy Ragland when we presented our idea for a home they had never built before they were 100% on board and through our collaboration with them we have an amazing finished product!
The quality of their work and attention to detail is the best in the business. They valued our input and provided their expertise and guidance along the way and were always available

We love our Homes by Chris home! Chris and Roy were extremely easy to work with and we were able to customize everything just how we wanted. Working with a designer to choose colors and fixtures made the entire process very simple, and the result is stunning. We had looked at MANY homes in both Kansas and Missouri and didn't find the quality we were looking for until we met Chris.
Highlights: quality construction, high-end finishes, great floor plan, thoughtful design/functionality throughout the home, attention to detail, responsiveness to our family's needs and desires.
Our family highly recommends

Homes by Chris is THE premiere custom builder in the Northland (Kansas City, Liberty, Parkville, and Kearney areas). With a discriminating eye and attention to detail, Chris Ragland goes above and beyond to please the families who choose to build homes with her. She finds every way possible to make sure your dream home is built to your specifications in the amount of time you need.
Hands down, she is the best builder in Kansas City.

We chose Homes by Chris to build our dream home after admiring their amazing Parade of Homes entries over the last few years. Chris and Roy have been wonderful to work with. They have spent a great deal of time with us going over designs to make sure our home is exactly what we want. They let us know the timelines up front and also walked us through the various stages of the build so we knew what to expect. Their attention to detail is unbelievable and you can tell they take pride in the craftsmanship of their homes. Every room has a unique design element, whether it be in the trim carpentry or

Chris and Roy Ragland have done an amazing job of growing a successful, unique building company. Chris was one of the front runners in bringing a new style to homes in Kansas City! She has a keen eye for detail and knows how to make a house feel like a home. She is very well respected within the Real Estate community. She is a leader in her industry and very active amongst the builder community. Chris and Roy work very well together in addressing all aspects of the home building process. Each takes charge of different parts of the process to ensure it is a smooth experience for their customer.

Homes by Chris is the premiere builder in Kansas City, and we have been supremely satisfied with the work they have done on our home. They have helped make additions to our children's rooms, and the workers who came to our home were very talented and efficient.

You can tell the better parts of our home were done by Homes by Chris, not our original builder.

Terrible, terrible, terrible! Terrible service, not at all professional or organized. Finishing work was awful. We ended up managing our own build job, not the builder that we paid a lot of money to! The model homes look nice, but they put their B team on all other projects! No following through, and terrible at time management. Choose another builder if you want a good product and a stress free experience!

FYI-the only other review is done by an employee.
