TESTIMONIALS

Claudia Huntington

“This letter is to provide the highest level of recommendation for Kevin Hanna and his team at Greenwood Homes.

I wish we had started the project with Kevin! He stepped in to a new building project at Glenbrook after the original builder went into bankruptcy. The home was about 50% complete, or less. We didn’t know him at the time, or otherwise we would have saved a good deal of heartache and expense. The home we built had quite a lot of detail in terms of finish out, and complicated elements. His team was just exceptional in terms of quality of work and ease of doing business.

Kevin is a “get it done and do it right” kind of guy. He won’t settle for anything less than perfect. He has a good set of sub contractors that he regularly does business with. We have built 5 homes over our lives, in Texas, Lake Tahoe and Hawaii, and our experience with Kevin was the best. He is honest, a good communicator, and a perfectionist.”

Amy & Jonathan Smith

“We would enthusiastically recommend Greenwood Homes for any building project, large or small. In 2009, we engaged Greenwood Homes to build our “dream home” in Incline Village, a 5000 square foot home with a number of unique features including an indoor gym.

We have known Kevin Hanna for many years and were impressed with the variety and caliber of his work. Although any custom home project can be stressful, Kevin and his staff guided us through the entire process with little anxiety.

Due to his excellent reputation, Kevin has formed relationships with top-quality sub-contractors that share his dedication and work ethic. Everyone we came in contact with was first class. They were responsive to all our needs and continue to be to this day. Most importantly, the project was completed under time and under budget. We continue to be impressed by the quality and craftsmanship.”

“I first was made aware of Greenwood Homes when I spent a weekend in a vacation home built by them. I was so impressed by the quality and craftsmanship in the home, I noted the name of the firm when I saw it in the guest binder.

A few years later, when it came time for our family to remodel our beloved (but neglected) family home of over 30 years, Greenwood Homes was at the top of my list. Kevin was a valuable hands-on resource from the very beginning, when we were just in the blue-sky planning stages. After understanding what our family wanted for the home, and helping us think through options at a strategic level, Kevin even helped us identify our architectural firm.

The Greenwood Team performance, from our project manager to the site superintendent to the accounting office, was impeccable and they were all real joy to work with. I felt as though they truly cared about our project from beginning to end. I only wish I had another custom home to build or remodel, because I would love to work with Kevin and his team at Greenwood again!”

Brad and Carol Pospichel

“Building “the dream” with the Greenwood team was truly a great experience—from start to finish. Within minutes of meeting you, we both knew we had found our builder, and we never regretted our decision. The house speaks for itself in the remarkable craftsmanship displayed throughout and, at the same time, reflects our casual, family-friendly lifestyle.

Building a second home from thousands of miles away was initially a daunting thought; however, we left each progress trip knowing we had nothing to worry about—we were in very capable hands. While we had no doubt that our home would be everything we had planned, the end result exceeded all of our expectations.

It is rare these days to find a builder with Kevin’s ethics and dedication to the client, and Brad and I feel extremely fortunate to have found him and the team at Greenwood Homes. It is exciting to be sharing our new home with family and friends, and we look forward to building many special memories there.”

Bill Simmons

“If you are considering Greenwood Homes as your builder and are reading this reference, then I am sure you have witnessed the quality and craftsmanship of their work. Craftsmanship which seems to emanate from a pride and esprit de corps of the team working with you, your architect and the materials you select.

Attention to detail starts from the top down. Kevin is always there to help you get your house built the way you want it. Sometimes that is exactly the way you initially thought, often it isn’t. Either way, he, with his easy going can-do attitude, is right there to help you though the emotional trade-offs of time, money, and quality.

I believe that Kevin and Greenwood Homes point of difference is that they are truly customer centric. It is easy to say and very difficult to do. Two years after the completion, I am happy to report that my wife Diane and I continue to be fully satisfied with every aspect of our home and the Greenwood Homes experience.”

Blake and Juli Riva

“We are pleased with the professional manner in which Greenwood Homes conducted themselves, ranging from the preparation of accurate cost estimates, to interfacing with our architect and lender, to the actual construction of our home.

The straightforward, honest manner in which Kevin operates is appreciated. As a sign of the trust we have in the integrity of his company, we worked on a cost-plus contractual agreement with them.

We would definitely recommend Greenwood Homes as an outstanding choice to build a custom home in the North Lake Tahoe area.”

Mark Pardue, General Manager

Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort Spa and Casino

“It is with strong conviction that I recommend to you Greenwood Homes. Our property retained Greenwood as the General Contractor to build our Tahoe Provisions Market at the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe in Incline Village. Greenwood has an outstanding reputation in our area for their quality construction of custom homes. Our particular project required a great deal of precision in every facet as projects such as these have a large impact on resort and hotel guests.

Greenwood has exceeded our expectations in every regard. The quality of their work, supervision of sub-contractors, adherence to timelines, and overall professionalism has been superb. I attribute a great deal of their success to the quality of their team. Starting with Kevin and throughout their organization, the Greenwood staff is flexible, professional, ethical and greatly skilled in all areas of their business.”

Kelly & Marie Hendrix

“Kevin and his team were very focused on building the home we wanted. Kevin helped with the selection of the architect, was instrumental in helping us with the design review approval process, made numerous suggestions to enhance our original plan, and provided excellent documentation regarding the budget and ongoing progress.

The project superintendent assigned to our project was a true professional in his knowledge, skill and integrity. Our project was completed in a timely manner and their post construction follow up has been superb.

In our opinion, Kevin Hanna and the staff of Greenwood Homes have proven to be the builders of choice for high end homes in Kukuiula. We are extremely pleased with our home and our building experience with Greenwood. We would absolutely recommend them for building a dream home!”

Jeanne Miraglia

“We lived in Incline Village for eight years and during that time Greenwood Homes built two ground-up custom homes for our family. We fully intended on staying in the first home, however when a lot with lake views and beach access became available, we knew we could handle another build with Greenwood Homes.

The entire team is respectable, personable and conscientious about every step of custom home building. Each individual at Greenwood Homes cares most about making sure that the client is completely satisfied. Kevin and his team will do whatever it takes to make their final product, the customers custom home, as close to specifications as possible.

After each of our homes was built, Kevin has been available to assist us with anything we need. After a home is built, especially in extreme climates like Tahoe, minor adjustments are needed to keep systems running perfectly. There has never been a time when Kevin has not helped us with any issue. His answer is usually, “I’ll have them over today!

You cannot go wrong having Greenwood Homes Build your house. It may be such a great experience that you do it again, like we did!”

William S. Ashmore

“I feel compelled to write this letter to express our appreciation for your superior customer service and the quality of house you build. As you know, my wife and I thoroughly investigated the alternatives we had prior to purchasing a home in Incline Village.

Having built our own home before, it gave us insight into quality of construction, which lead us confidently to choose your company. In addition, an extra we did not anticipate was your warm, friendly, yet professional demeanor, along with your responsiveness and “can do” attitude towards our special projects.

As a result, our experience with you exceeded our expectations, which is not an easy thing to do.”

Linda Robins

“I wanted to thank you for the great job you and your company did in building our new home on Lake Shore Boulevard. It was a pleasure to work with you and your “magic phone”.

Pat, Rob, Dave and all the crew were very helpful, competent and skilled, and thanks to you all, our house was completed on time and on budget. Your follow up after we moved in to make sure everything was 100% right has been outstanding.

We look forward to future projects with you and your “1st Class Company.”

Rick and Lisa Andriano

“We want to thank you for making the process of building our home so positive. Your success, integrity, personal attention, and approach to managing the construction process created a solid level of trust between us.

We grew fond of the entire Greenwood team and were continually impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, organizational skills and work ethic.

We couldn’t have picked a better contractor to build our home, if we had to do it all over again we would definitely hire Greenwood Homes!”

David P. Steinmann

“Some builders are good at building fine, custom homes. Some are good at dealing with clients. Some have a special touch with architects and subcontractors. Some builders are good at building in difficult markets and environments. Very few builders are good at all of these things. Kevin is one of those few.

Kevin is also a client’s builder. By that I mean that his singular goal has been to produce the house we wanted. He never says he can’t, and he managed both us and our very precise and demanding architect in a spirit of cooperation.

I cannot say enough about the quality of the people employed at Greenwood Homes. Their attitudes and their work standards are of the highest caliber.”
