” We couldn’t be happier with our experience with HowMar Homes. They renovated the exterior of our house (siding, gutters, the whole shebang). They were extremely affordable, professional, and more importantly- got everything done on time!! Our house looks amazing. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an honest and affordable company to do some renovations.”

” I am not one to write reviews or testimonials but I am making an exception in this case. Midway through 2022, I stumbled upon an attractive lot in Stevensville, Md, with a HowMar Homes sign posted on it. Though I’ve owned several homes in my lifetime, none of them were newly constructed custom dwellings. Frankly, I was a bit scared and intimidated to step out of my comfort zone and travel down this road. Well, as they say, “nothing ventured, nothing gained.” I called the number on the sign that eventually led to a meeting with Bob Oliff (builder/owner). It turned out to be a rewarding adventure with the end result being a beautiful HowMar home where I currently reside.

I knew nothing about “construction to perm” loans and all the other intricacies surrounding the purchase of a home not yet built. Bob patiently walked me through all the steps from beginning to end, showing great patience when answering all my questions and addressing my concerns.

As to the construction; HowMar homes are solidly built and energy efficient. The workmanship and attention to detail are impressive, and I had the opportunity to watch it unfold from the ground up. The end result; a beautiful custom home that I am very proud of.

Since starting this journey back in July 2022, I’ve crossed paths with financers, other HowMar homeowners, neighbors, and building inspectors. Each and every one of these individuals had nothing but positive feedback concerning their experiences with HowMar Homes. I think that says something about this company’s dedication to provide high quality residences to their customers.

In the beginning of this process Bob Oliff was just another builder and HowMar Homes just another home construction company. By the time I took possession of my new home in February 2023, Bob was friend. “

“We are very pleased with our siding, gutters, soffit and fascia done by HowMar Homes. They were easy to work with and always available for questions and changes that we requested. The workers got the job done quickly and on time and left the job site clean. We are really pleased on all fronts, hope to do business with HowMar in the future and definitely recommend them to anyone looking to improve the look of their home!”

We can’t recommend Bob and Howmar Homes enough! They made the entire building process smooth and enjoyable, and we’re now in a home we are incredibly proud of. “

“We highly recommend building a home with HowMar Homes. Robert and the team at HowMar have been incredible to work with from start to finish and beyond. Bob made us feel comfortable from the first phone call and then proudly showed us built homes and expertly talked through models and options that helped us arrive at our vision. Bob treated us as if we were family and gave honest advice that helped guide our decisions. Once construction started, Bob and Matt truly built our home as if it was their own and their pride in their work shows throughout. The entire process from selection to completion consisted of open, clear, concise, and, most importantly, honest communication. We are very happy with our home and we are proud of our home. Thank you to Bob, Matt and the whole team at HowMar for making it a reality!”
