From Our Homebuyers
We love the Reliant Home we recently bought. My wife loves the details in the kitchen and owners suite. The onsite agent was wonderful throughout the entire process. Even now when we see him in the neighborhood he stops to ask us how everything is going. This speaks a ton about the customer service Reliant has and the people who work for them.
