6 Things That Set Homes by Taber Apart from Other Oklahoma Home Builders

Searching for the best home builder in Oklahoma often starts the same way: comparing floor plans, pricing, neighborhoods, and online reviews. Before long, though, most buyers realize they're really searching for something bigger. They want confidence that the company building their home will stand behind its work long after closing day.

More than two decades have been spent earning that trust at Homes by Taber ®. Since building the first three homes in 2000, Homes by Taber has grown into Oklahoma's Favorite Builder ®, because the Taber team focuses on delivering better value, higher quality, and a better homebuilding experience.

Today, homeowners looking for new homes in Oklahoma City, Edmond, Deer Creek, Mustang, Yukon, Moore, Norman, Choctaw, Guthrie, Cashion, Piedmont, Perkins, Broken Arrow, Stillwater, and beyond continue to choose Homes by Taber because they know exactly what they're getting: a Proudly Overbuilt ® home backed by proven processes, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a team that believes details matter.

Here's what truly sets Homes by Taber apart.

1. Homes by Taber Includes What Other Builders Call Upgrades

One of the biggest surprises buyers experience when touring a Homes by Taber community is discovering how much is already included.

Too often, new home shoppers fall in love with a model home only to discover that many of the features they admired cost extra. By the time those upgrades are added, the home's price looks very different than what was originally advertised.

That's never been the philosophy at Homes by Taber. The Proudly Overbuilt approach means many of the features other builders reserve for premium upgrade packages come standard in every Taber home.

That includes features designed to improve:

• Energy efficiency
• Home safety
• Indoor air quality
• Everyday functionality
• Long-term durability
• Modern design

Rather than asking buyers to choose between quality and affordability, Homes by Taber has redefined what "standard" should look like.

As Oklahoma's largest homebuilder, Homes by Taber uses purchasing power to pass savings directly to homeowners instead of limiting them to expensive upgrade lists. The result is simple: you receive more home for your investment.

2. Every Home Is Built Around Long-Term Value

Buying a home isn't just about today. It's about the next five, ten, or twenty years. That's why the Homes by Taber building philosophy extends well beyond beautiful kitchens and attractive curb appeal.

Every Homes by Taber home is designed to perform for years to come.

Taber homes include:

• Industry-leading energy-efficient construction
• RESNET-certified HERS ratings
• Healthy Home Technology
• Advanced air quality features
• Superior insulation systems
• Tankless water heaters
• Storm shelters included in every home
• Quality construction practices that often remain hidden behind the walls

Many of these details aren't immediately visible during a tour, but they're exactly what make a difference after moving in.

The Homes by Taber average HERS score of approximately 40 consistently ranks among the most energy-efficient homes in the country. That means homeowners often save around $1,500 annually on utility costs compared to older homes while enjoying a home that's more comfortable year-round.

Building smarter isn't a marketing slogan, it's how homes should be built.

3. Homes by Taber Builds in Communities They Believe In

Where a home is located matters just as much as how it's built.

Instead of building scattered homes across Oklahoma, Homes by Taber intentionally focuses on thoughtfully planned communities throughout the Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Stillwater metro areas.

That allows the Taber team to provide greater consistency, stronger quality control, and a better overall homeowner experience.

Whether you're searching for:

• New homes in Edmond
• New homes in Deer Creek
• New homes in Guthrie
• New homes in Cashion
• New homes in Broken Arrow
• New homes in Perkins
• New homes in Mustang
• New homes in Norman
• New homes in Choctaw
• New homes in Yukon
• New homes in Moore
• New homes in Piedmont

...the goal is always the same.

Homes by Taber carefully selects locations with outstanding schools, growing local economies, convenient commuting options, and communities where homeowners can put down roots for years to come.

Because Taber homes are concentrated within Homes by Taber specific neighborhoods, dedicated construction superintendents oversee every phase of the build process. Additional quality-control inspections throughout construction help ensure every home meets Proudly Overbuilt standards. 

4. Reputation Has Been Earned One Homeowner at a Time

Homes by Taber is proud to have been recognized nationally by organizations like Professional Builder Magazine and Builder Magazine while growing into Oklahoma's largest homebuilder. But what matters even more are the reviews left by homeowners after they've lived in their homes.

Again and again, customers mention the same things:

• Transparent communication
• Helpful sales teams
• Smooth building experience
• Exceptional warranty service
• Better included features
• Honest guidance throughout the process

One homeowner shared that the regular updates throughout construction made the process significantly less stressful.

Another noted that after touring several builders, Homes by Taber simply offered more value without sacrificing quality.

Others specifically highlight our warranty department, praising its responsiveness and professionalism long after closing day.

Those reviews reflect exactly what Homes by Taber has worked to build over the last 25 years: a reputation rooted in doing what they say they'll do.

5. Supporting You After You Move In

Closing day isn't the finish line. It's the beginning of homeownership.

That's why Homes by Taber has invested heavily in systems that continue supporting homeowners long after they receive their keys.

The customer care process includes resources like:

• Digital warranty requests
• Helpful homeowner videos
• Scheduled warranty walkthroughs
• 60-day visits
• 11-month warranty appointments
• Dedicated in-house warranty professionals
• Ongoing customer support

Many members of the Taber team also live in Homes by Taber communities, so the systems they’ve created aren't just for their customers. They're processes Homes by Taber team members personally experience themselves.

That perspective matters. When homeowners need assistance, they deserve clear communication and dependable follow-through.

6. Homes by Taber Believes Building Homes Means Building Oklahoma

Being Oklahoma's Favorite Builder isn't just about building homes. It's about investing in the communities where Homes by Taber builds.

Through Taber Cares initiative, their employees regularly volunteer throughout Oklahoma and support hundreds of local charitable organizations. To Homes by Taber, giving back isn't an occasional event. It's part of the company culture.

That same philosophy shapes the way they make business decisions.

Founder Taber LeBlanc often describes their leadership approach as considering six groups with every decision:

• Customers
• Employees
• Trade partners
• Vendors
• Bankers
• The communities they serve

When every decision creates value for all six, everyone benefits. That's the kind of long-term thinking that has allowed Homes by Taber to continue growing while staying grounded in the values that started the company in 2000.

Why More Oklahoma Buyers Continue Choosing Homes by Taber

Finding the right builder means looking beyond price alone. It means asking who consistently delivers lasting value. Who includes features instead of charging extra for them.

At Homes by Taber, those questions guide everything.
