Real Stories from Our Clients

Read What It’s Like to Build with Us

Great customer service throughout the entire process

I had the best experience with Airlie Homes! We had great customer service from the initial design, throughout the entire process, and to our final move in. Overall, we were very happy with the communication with our project manager, the quality of our home, and the entire build process. I highly recommend Airlie Homes and would use them again if we ever decide to build again!

Brenda Fox

nothing short of amazing

“My wife and I purchased a new construction home from Airlie Homes in the spring of 2023. Our experience with the AH team has been nothing short of amazing. They have always been extremely responsive and handle any matters that arise in a very timely manner. Their product is second to none in the area and we still get compliments about the design and quality of build in our home. We highly recommend AH to anyone looking to purchase one of their homes or who are looking to work with them on a custom project.”

Edwin “Eborn” Rawl

Highly recommend this company!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Airlie Homes in building my custom home. This was the first custom home I have built and they helped me at every step of the journey to make the best choices for my family! I would highly recommend this company!

Sarah Mai Harvey

Highly recommend them to anyone interested in building

My wife and I had an excellent experience with Airlie Homes building our custom home and highly recommend them to anyone interested in building a custom home in the area. Across the board the owners and project managers are extremely knowledgeable, responsive, fair, and always took the time to help guide us through the homebuilding process. Airlie Homes provided valuable insights from the early design stages all the way to the final punch list and ultimately built us a beautiful high quality home on schedule.

Trevor Lancaster

Deb and I love our AH home!

We recommend Airlie Homes to anyone seeking a top shelf home building process and spectacular results. Deb and I love our AH home! From design/planning to execution to quality follow-up after closing, Mike and Tyler work diligently with you to promote your home’s distinction. Clint runs a tight ship behind the scenes and on site, and Zack is conscientious and responsive (in fact, the entire team is). Building a home can be stressful, but Airlie Homes makes the experience as rewarding as your quality new home.

Eric Perry

they walk you through every step of the way

Great company to work for and work with. They deliver a superior customer experience that not every builder can do. Hands down recommend them. Building a home starts with a dream and they walk you through every step of the way.

Matt Farmer

Bottom line, I highly recommend Mike and Tyler

My first home in Leland was built with Airlie Homes in 2015. After returning from an unexpected job transfer I built a second home with them in 2018 next door to the first one. I moved in just after hurricane Florence and there wasn’t a single issue arising from the storm. Both homes continue to stand out from the crowd of Trusst and other production homes in Waterford. I also collaborated with them on three more spec homes on Soft Sky Lane in Wilmington. Bottom line, I highly recommend Mike and Tyler to fulfill your new home vision.

Robert Sanders

They make every step easy

I have had a great experience working with Airlie Homes and their entire team. The owners and project managers are very responsive and professional. They make every step easy and are knowledgeable. If you are a potential buyer or vendor in the greater Wilmington NC area I would recommend working with or for Airlie Homes!

Max Elam

Communicated with me every step of the way

Airlie worked with me throughout the process of building my “dream home” and were extremely flexible about things I wanted! They helped me find ways to save on some items so I could splurge on other things I really wanted! They communicated with me every step of the way and always in a timely manner. Building a one-of-a-kind home is obviously stressful and never 100% “perfect,” but they helped me keep things in perspective and the end result was well worth it! I highly recommend them!
