Hi Fran and Kelly,
We had our walk through yesterday of our new home and I enjoyed it very much. Jim and Richard are so fantastic and I quite enjoyed them both yesterday. They pay so much attention to detail, so honest, and quite comical. They are so down to earth and I felt so comfortable with them. My husband gets the pleasure of communicating with all of you (especially Jim). Kaine has the most fantastic people working for them (including yourselves). My husband and I really appreciate all of your professionalism and knowledge. Jim and Richard really, really impress me and I'm so fascinated over how much they pay attention to detail and how honest they are. Jim and Richard really, really impress me and I'm so fascinated over how much they pay attention to detail and how honest they are. If they don't know something, they just say, "I don't know" which I like, because I know they are speaking the truth instead of trying to give me a dishonest answer. Please pass on to Jim and Richard just much I enjoyed yesterday and my husband and I are looking forward to next Friday.

Dear Brooke,
It is evident that Jim Trotter is committed to the Kaine Homes brand. His consistent effort in resolving all issues related to building and maintaining a house is effective in achieving customer satisfaction. Jim takes personal pride in his work and it reveals his good character. From my experience, customer satisfaction is an essential asset in supporting sales through positive and constructive "word of mouth" referrals.
Solving all of the defects and oversights that occur in building a house is a continuous effort, all of which falls on Jim's shoulders. Every item ends up being an action item addressed by Jim Trotter.
In my experience with Kaine Homes, Jim Trotter has always addressed each problem without complaint and without hesitation.
Jim has succeeded in going beyond customer satisfaction by engendering customer loyalty. This has been accomplished by the rare commitment that Jim has demonstrated in maintaining the Kaine Home Inc image of quality beyond expectation.
Jim Trotter is the keeper of Kaine's quality and reliability.
Thank you for the support that Kaine Homes has provided. This support started from the initiation of the house build, during the build, while we lived in the house, and after we moved. It is absolutely reassuring that Jim can be called upon.
Jim is of strong and consistent character. It is clear to me that in the process of building as many homes that he has, that imbedded in Jim is the ideal and related disciplines that obliges him to see through to completion each task; each and every time.
Thank you again. Jim Trotter's loyalty has earned my loyalty in Kaine Homes. It is agood for you to know that his effort is appreciated.

In response to a marketing survey, the McLaughlin's wrote:
We first learned of Kaine Homes from your billboard on Route 4, and then looked on your web site. We were also looking at one other builder in the area, but after meeting with both company's reps and visiting lots and model homes, we discovered that Kaine was far superior in the quality of the workmanship and attention to detail, the quality of the lots, and the knowledge of Kaine's staff, plus the staff was always so helpful and pleasant. From start to finish, Kaine Homes exceeded our expectations at every level.

Dear Mr. Brooke Kaine and Staff
I am writing to express our profound satisfaction with our Kaine Home. The finished product was beyond our expectation. We were so EXCITED to see OUR home on September 14, 2007. I know that this was the home that God wanted us to have for our family. He allowed the entire building process to go unscathed and allowe the delivery date to be as scheduled. We really appreciate how we were able to see different parts of the building process come to fruition with Jim or Richard there to explain anything we did not quite understand.
Fran, Shannon, Jim, and Richard were just wonderful to work with. Each seemed to have a genuine interest in the customer's satisfaction. Last, but not least, we appreciate you, Mr. Kaine, for pointing us in the directin of Covenant Creek after having taken us to several other developments. Thank you and the entire Kaine Homes family for all that you did to add to our happiness. May God continue to bless your business and each of you.
Sincerely,
Diana and Keith Wharton
The Wharton Family, Covenant Creek, Owings, MD

I would like to thank you for all that you've done to make this process of building our home as smooth as it can be. We have had several bumps in the road, but between the three of you (especially you Fran), this experience has been a pleasant one. My husband and I have always been pleased with Kaine Homes from the day we walked in the model. We have even refererred people to seek Kaine Homes as their builder.
We have many common golas, and one of them is to move out of PG County into Calvert County. We are so happy and appreciatrive of everything you all have done for us. We really cannot thank you enough.

Usually people our age, close to retirement, downsize. With our 6 grandkids, we realized we actually needed a bigger house. We were immediately impressed by the quality of the Kaine model, and fell in love with The Monroe because of the master suite on the main floor, and the four additional bedrooms upstairs—perfect for our growing family. We were also impressed by the helpful and friendly Kaine staff, both before our purchase and after building started. Everyone has been very accommodating and professional from the start to completion and beyond.

The moment we drove into Covenant Creek, we felt like it was ‘home.’ The quality and attention to detail Kaine Homes paid not only to our home and our family, but at every stage of the construction process, really stood out from the ‘cookie cutter’ builders in the area. We wanted to build our home and Kaine let us do just that. We had the most enjoyable experience working with the entire staff in designing and building our home—from the moment we walked into the model home to the day we walked into our very own just 8 months later.

Dear Sir,
We would like to take the opportunity to tell you what a wonderful experience we had building our home with your company. From the point of selecting a home site to the delivery of the end product, your staff showed extreme professionalism with the ability to still make us feel like they knew they were building our home. Your sales staff was excellent at fielding all of our questions without making us feel pressured to make a decision. Once the contract was signed and it became time to make the selections for our home, Shannon Pasch was so helpful in choosing the design for our home. She made it so easy for us to vision our dream and put it together. In the field, Jim and Richard were very knowledgeable and responsive to our concerns. When problems arose as they inevitably will, they addressed the issues and made us feel like it was under control and would be handled appropriately.
We want to tell you what an asset Jim is to your company, but I'm sure you recognize this already. As busy as he is overseeing the progress of your home sites, Jim responds to every issue an every question as if you're the only people he's working with. He makes you feel comfortable about the way things are going because he keeps you totally informed as to what is happening in the construction process and he addresses any issue with confidence and concern and makes you feel like it's in good hands. He gave us deadlines and progress schedules that we met or exceeded every time. His dedication to detail in commendable.
The finished product, our home, is everything that we hoped it would be. When we took possession of our home, Jim Trotter, Richard Day and Stacey walked us through everything in our home and showed us the attention that was paid to every detail. There of course have been small issues that needed attention in the home. We have been amazed at how quickly your staff and subcontractors have responded to the minor issues we've found with the home. It's clear that it is important to the company that we are happy with the produt that you've delivered. We know that we made the right choice in deciding to build with your company.
We compliment you on the quality and professionalism of the team that you've put together and thank you once again for the experinece provided in bringing us our dream home. We know we'll be happy there for many years to come.
Sincerely,
Mark and Mary Munoz

Our house was the first one built in the Cross Point subdivision (Owings) in 1999. Most people complain about the new house building experience, but in our case it was to the contrary. Unlike other house builders, who build houses on a cookie counter mentality, Kaine allowed us to do massive changes to the internal architectural design at no additional cost. This made our house more unique and personal. We still love our house and we are surely glad that we had Kaine build it.

My experience with Kaine Homes has been terrific. Reliability to me is the most important concepts when dealing with customer service. When I have a question and make a phone call, I expect an immediate and professional response, and that is what I received. My experience did not go without adversity, as with most home building experiences. However, Kaine home, specifically Jim Trotter, always resolved the issues in my favor. The customer is always right attitude prevailed! For example, during the design phase, I selected a style of stone for the front of my house. When the stone was completely installed, I didn't like it and I thought that I had to live with it. After discussing the matter with Jim, Paul Fatseas, and Brooke Kaine, they decided that they would tear down the original stone and allowed me to pick a new stone at no additional cost. I am not sure how much the new stone cost or the labor for re-installing the stone, but Kaine Homes did the right thing to make me and my wife happy. Thank you Kaine Homes for a wonderful home building experience.

Kaine built our first home in 1999, and now they are building for us again! What is so great about Kaine is that we are dealing with the same people; Jim Trotter is absolutely amazing to work with. He is knowledgeable, accessible, easy to communicate with, and willing to work with you to make your home all you want it to be. Fran Folkee really worked hard to make sure we were not only getting what we wanted, but what we needed in a home for our family.

This letter is to thank you and your staff for the excellent experience we have had with Kaine homes. The first time we walked into the model home your staff was warm and welcoming, answering all of our questions and following up on they didn't have an answer to. When we placed a deposit on the home we asked if we could delay the start of construction three months so we wouldn't have to change school districts two-thirds of the way through the school year, the answer was "no problem." That is exactly how our experience has been with Kaine Homes. The design phase of our home was second to none. Shannon Pasch is simply magnificent! From modifying the floor plan, adding a sunroom, bumping out the basement, to helping us with available options to color selection. I'm sure our home wouldn't be what it is today if it weren't for Shannon. Even when our home was completed your staff was always available, addressing all of our questions and issues. Specifically I would like to acknowledge Stacy Downing and Richard Day. They put a face on your term "Experience Our Difference." Stacy always returned calls and would follow up to ensure that a vendor had completed all necessary work and there's not enough I can say about Richard that would do him justice. Richard was always available, always helpful, and always gave a straight answer. If the problem was on Kaine, he would say "We'll fix it," and if it wasn't he would honestly tell us and give us a reason why. It is with sincere gratitude that we would like to thank you and your staff at Kaine homes for the excellent service rendered before, during and after the construction of our home.
—Paul E. Harrod Sr.

We wanted to send you a note to tell you just how much we love our new Kaine home. It is absolutely beautiful and exceeded our wildest expectations. This is the second time we have had a house built and the differences between our experiences is remarkable. Working with Kaine allowed us to relax during the entire process, knowing that a capable staff and hardworking staff members are on point to make sure everything was completed accurately and on time. Everyone at Kaine Homes is lovely to work with and commited to your mission. It has been a wonderful experience and we would repeat it in a heartbeat. We have already shared our happiness with several of our friends and family, and many will be building homes in the future. In fact, we love our home so much that we cannot wait to build again! We have decided that we would love to build a home in Oakville when it opens in 2008. We would be delighted to be one of your “move up” homeowners. This is our goal! Our ultimate dream is to build the Washington… and maybe we are on our way there… just give us a few more years. Please commend your wonderful staff on a job well done. We could not have asked for a more responsive or exceptional group of people to work with. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
