Homeowners who review Mitchell Homes most often describe a team that kept them informed at every step of the build. Many were building for the first time, and they thank their home consultants and construction managers by name for quick answers and clear guidance. Reviewers also point to upfront pricing with no surprises, to building on their own land with no down payment and no construction loan, and to homes they still love a year or more after moving in.

Our experience with Mitchell Homes has been a wonderful experience thus far. They have helped us every step of the way, answering any and all questions we may have. From the office/showroom to the job site we never feel as if we’re in the way.

I recently closed on my home with Mitchell Homes – Fredericksburg, and it was a great experience from start to finish. The team made the process smooth and were always responsive and helpful along the way.
A special thank you to Pam, Holly, and Matthew for their support and communication throughout the build. I truly appreciate everything the team did to help make my new home a reality.

Great people to work with. Jeff, who helped us with choosing our house plan and making changes was great and I cannot say enough positive things about Joe Carboni. He is very customer oriented and strives to insure things are done like they should be. He is awesome. Our first time building a home and a great experience.

Mitchell homes is the way to go when you want to build a new home on your own land. No construction loan no fees. Simple application to see how much money you are approved for and plenty of home styles to pick from. This was not my first rodeo when buying or building a new home. I would definitely give them a call.

Mitchell Homes provided honest upfront details about the home building experience. I knew my responsibilities and they guided me through the process. There were no surprises from with the agreements and contracts that I signed through the build process and closing. I would recommend Mitchell Homes if you are looking to build on your own lot.

Homeowner testimonial
If you want/need to build a house I would highly recommend Mitchell Homes. They walked us through every step of the building process. There were no surprises, hidden costs or unexpected delays. Even when it was getting difficult for them to get materials, they had a plan, searched and secured the necessary products to complete the build on time. They kept us in the loop by letting us know what was going to take place on a weekly basis. This is a professional group of experienced people and they build a beautiful home. We are so pleased with our new home it is near impossible to put into words. Thank you Mitchell Homes for a job well done!

I highly recommend working with Mitchell Homes. This is not like any other builder I have worked with in the past. They are very upfront with costs, options, changes & the building process. You are constantly in the know about what is going on week after week. Love how transparent they have been!
Brenda T.
Homeowner testimonial
My Mom and I wanted to build a house together where each of us had our own living space, all one level and I had an idea in my head to connect them with a laundry room placed behind the garage. Mitchell helped us make the vision come to life. We love our home and everyone that has been by to see it loves the idea.
Brian F.
Homeowner testimonial
Would highly recommend using Mitchell homes. From start to finish every person we worked with was always very attentive and responded quickly to any questions or concerns. Being stick built homes on your site you are able to watch every aspect of each phase. The entire process from start to finish went way easier than we could have ever imagined. If you are looking to build a home on the Eastern Shore of VA look no further than Mitchell Homes!
Rick D.
Homeowner testimonial
If I could give 6 stars I would. We LOVE our new home. I don't think we had a real appreciation of what the Mitchell team does, and if we had to start over again, we'd still select Mitchell. I would not change a thing - our home is well-built, and I am overly impressed with the finished product.
Ashley R.
Homeowner testimonial
Mitchell Homes is an amazing company to work with. From the very start, they made me feel comfortable in the process and everyone was there to support and guide me. There was never any question that went unanswered, and I could reach out to anyone at the company when I needed. From the house plans, design, building process and final decisions; they were there every step of the way. I was confident at every turn knowing that they were there! The employees I was able to work with were hands down the best. I feel like I’ve known them for years and were always very personable. Mitchell Homes exceeded my expectations from start to finish. If you are looking to build, I highly recommend you start here first.
Kristina S.
Homeowner testimonial
Mitchell Homes was so easy and pleasant to work with. They took their time in explaining anything and stayed on top of any updates and changes that needed to be made or modified. I love that they are there with you every step of the process and stayed in communication throughout the entire process, that made me feel very comfortable with the process as I am a first-time homeowner. Not to mention this was during the beginning of the pandemic, I was really nervous, but they were still able to complete the construction on time.
Laman and Inez S.
