BeHome

We enjoyed our build experience with BeHome! Mike was wonderful to work with, giving us several options of homes and helping us customize the one we loved. While the pandemic caused delays, Mike and his team continued to work forward when possible. The interior selection process is definitely the most challenging, as there are many decisions to be made! We appreciate the open lines of communication with the BeHome team, and their willingness to go above and beyond for their clients. We absolutely love our home!

Our experience with BeHome has been excellent so far. We have not actually taken the plunge and built a home but we have worked with Mike in lot selection, choosing the right home, making alterations to the plan, design center walkthrough and inspecting the quality of their builds. If we decide to build, BeHome will be our builder for sure.

After interviewing with multiple builders, it was evident from the very beginning that Mike at BeHome is heads and tails above the rest. The quality of materials and construction of our home is matched only by the quality of person Mike is. We are extremely happy with our new custom home and would highly recommend Mike to anyone. In fact, I have already recommended BeHome to many friends and family.

"The team at BeHome has been amazing to work with through the whole process! Building a home is a journey, and I am truly thankful for my BeHomers - Matt, Hanah, and of course Mike! My wife and I worked towards getting a home for 14 years, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to get us to the finish line."

We are very Proud that Michael Powell was one of our builders in Hoot Owl. He built a great product.

As a preferred lender, I have had the pleasure of working with Mike and his team on numerous projects. Excellent people, excellent communication, excellent work!

I have done several transactions with the builder and he has always done a great job! He give the client details information up front so you know what to expect.

Took care of the whole building project from design to the finished house, Excellent Builder, fulfilled all my design requirements and did a very good job of constructing the house, very happy with the floor plan that came up with. A+

Behome is building a cute house next to us, but the build process has been a headache for neighbors and the customer. Behome damaged my property line and irrigation system over 8 months ago and after 7 calls to their office to request remediation, there has been no follow-up. After talking with the homeowner they also said the build process has been slow, arduous, and with shoddy communication. I know building a custom home can be difficult, but being mindful of neighbors, trash management, property damage, and communication should be important.

If I could rate BeHome LLC ZERO stars I would. We contracted with them to build a new home for us in November 2021 our home has still not been built/completed as of December 2022. The only things completed were the foundation walls. I would NEVER, EVER recommend BeHome LLC or Michael Powell to anyone. Michael Powell took our $38,860 non-refundable down payment, put it in his pocket and never completed our home. In fact now he's not able to do anymore work because he either doesn't have the tradesman or money to do it so he's offered to sell us back our property in the condition you see here.
Mike became so rude during our communications that he told us after we gave him the deed to our property that he "owned (our) land!" It took him 6 months to get a sewer extension redesign and he has yet to get a permit from the City to complete it. He's broken code after code just getting the foundation walls in!!! Needless to say this has been an horrific experience with Mike and BeHome LLC. We hear there are many others like us.

ADDED: YOU are nothing but a LIAR. YOU APPROACHED US ABOUT A BUYOUT because you couldn't finish our home. Mike you didn't sell us our home back. We never reached an agreement. If you did, prove it! You lost our home to the lender and we had to purchase it back from the BANK, NOT YOU! I have a copy of the contract that shows you had to deed the property to the bank for us to purchase it. You LOST OUR LAND that we had already paid cash for and deeded over to you for free. You are the biggest con man in the metro KC area. It doesn't take a year to build a 1,900 square foot house. Lie your way out of that one. By the way, I know you received that letter from my attorney, Zach with Lowenstein Law that told you to send any communication you have for us to him. Do that please. Don't post your lies on public forums. You should expect additional correspondence regarding your misdeeds involving our home from the Missouri State Attorney General's Office as well. Our complaint is still pending in that office. All the best salvaging what is left of your business. May you receive everything you gave in multiples.

(Updated 4/9/2024. After ripping off his last dozen or so clients and numerous subs, he has filed for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. Good riddance to you and yours Mr. Powell)

Had to hire an attorney to enforce our contract w/ Be Home LLC and owner, Mike Powell. Buyer beware with this builder.

Mike (Owner) & Steve (CFO) have cut off all communication and refuse to pay for work done on 4 of their projects. Billing Home Owners for work and not paying their suppliers/subcontractors.

2/10/23: Since I cannot respond I’ll do it here. That is wholly inaccurate. You have not communicated any warranty items. You have not responded to calls or emails since July. You agreed to have your account caught up in August. If you really have a warranty item you should email it to me today.
