Highland Homes Rebate FAQ
Answers specific to buying a Highland Homes home with a registered outside agent.
Yes. Highland Homes works with independent buyer's agents across its Dallas–Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin communities, as long as the agent is registered before your first visit to a sales office or model home.
No. Highland Homes' loyalty benefits for repeat buyers and referrals are separate from buyer-agent commission. Registering an agent does not reduce or replace any closing-cost credit or incentive Highland Homes offers you directly.
Most builders, including Highland Homes, treat the on-site sales counselor as your agent of record once you've visited unregistered. Contact us anyway; depending on where you are in the process, registration may still be possible.
Highland Homes builds only in Texas and operates in no other state, unlike most national builders on this site. That focus, plus strong repeat-buyer loyalty, doesn't change how your estimated closing credit works.
On a $400,000 Highland Homes home, the estimated closing credit would be up to $8,000, subject to lender approval.
