We are very familiar with NV homes, and knew if we ever bought again, it would be with NV. We could not wait for Tanager Woods to open! We immediately joined the VIP list and when we got a call from Natalia Ovide, we were more than excited. We made an appointment to look at homes... and walked away having purchased a beautiful home. The quality, the responsiveness and the care put into every facet of each the process is amazing. And it doesn't stop there, Natalia -- the sales manager; Eric -- our project manager; and Jenn; our loan officer keep us informed and are so knowledgeable and kind to work with. We never even considered another builder and Tanager Woods has all the great amenities you'll ever need without being so overcrowded that you can't use all the great fun they have to offer. We are so excited about this newest NV adventure and cannot wait to move in. Can't' wait to use the pool, the courts, the clubhouse, and more. Hope we see you at Tanager Woods!!! BWagman

This is our second interaction with NVHomes and we have been even more impressed by the professionalism and attention we have received. Natalia in sales, Jennifer in finance and Eric in construction have all been wonderful in their desire to meet our vast and changing needs while offsetting much of the anxiety associated with the new build process. While we have not completed the process as yet, we have found great comfort in knowing that our "NVHome Team" is with us during each stage. Needless to say, we are excited about our new home and joining the Tanager Woods community. John Meggiolaro & Marya Grier

We entered the sales office at Tanager Woods on a lovely fall Sunday afternoon…without an appointment…and walked out new home buyers!! Our great blessing was due in large part to the knowledge, expertise and sincerity of the NV Sales Associate, Lindsay Knoll. Lindsay has been with NV Homes since 2008 and that meant a lot to us. Her longevity showed through in all our dealings with her. Tanager Woods felt like a place where we could be happy and content in the next phase of our lives. We look forward to the coming several months as our home will be built and meeting new folks and journeying together.

We stopped in at Tanger Woods just to check out the product, We are glad we did. They had the correct model and size we were looking for. The sales representative John was great ! No pressure just great information straight up, This was a great stop and we purchased a house. We are excited to see our finished product in December!

Jon, the Sales Rep, is truly outstanding! He is very experienced and knowledgeable in all areas of the home selection and purchasing process. His professionalism and friendly demeanor attribute to an exceptional customer experience that is best in class.

Lindsey our sales rep and Jackson our project manager have been amazing to work with. This is our third experience buying a NV home. Linsey was so helpful when we were picking the finishes for our new home. Jackson gives us weekly, if not more frequent updates and posts pictures for us so that we can check the progress of our home. We can not wait to move into our home and meet our new neighbors in Tanager Woods
