“Choosing a contractor can sometimes be a tedious task, as there are many to choose from.  We highly encourage you to choose Hybrid Homes and Daryl Whiteside and staff for your remodeling needs.  From the beginning, Daryl and his highly knowledgeable staff were easy to work with and  far exceeded our expectations.  The timeline for our project was met and all aspects of our remodel were completed with great detail.  Daryl Whiteside is very honest, forthcoming and a pleasure to work with.  Hybrid Homes remodeled 2 bathrooms, our kitchen, and added a master bed and bath.  The compliments we receive in regards to the work completed is another reassurance that we chose the right contractor.  In the future, we plan to use Hybrid Homes as our contractor for any other renovation needs.”

“Hybrid Homes made it possible for us to buy the house we wanted! It was vandalized and needed many repairs and it couldn’t be financed without these being fixed. We couldn’t afford to pay for the repairs out of pocket. The 203(k) loan program made it possible for us to buy in the neighborhood we wanted, finance the repairs, and move in with everything fixed for just a small down payment! The Hybrid Homes team worked with our translator frequently to make sure we were informed and comfortable with every step of the process. We are so happy with the work they did! We even hired them afterwards to do a few additional upgrades!”

Jeanie Crossfield, Auburn
“Hybrid Homes made my new house into a home that I am proud of! I could not have been more impressed – the very same day I called, a representative came out to inspect my property. I received a thorough quote for the FHA required items and my wish-list renovations – all before I even heard back from the other contractors that I had called. My experience throughout the whole process was impressive – always a prompt, professional response from all of the Hybrid Homes staff. “

Shaun Philippart, Elk Grove
“My fiancée and I finally found a house that had the potential to be our dream home. Hybrid Homes did a wonderful job working with my Lender and I and before we knew it my fiancée and I had a house!! Hybrid Homes began working on our house and delivered it the exact day they said it would be done!!! We felt like we had a brand new home! Hybrid Homes did an amazing job and did not use a penny of the contingency money, which allowed us to use that money to have a new carpet installed. We are very happy and would highly recommend Hybrid Homes to anyone going through the 203K process or simply looking to improve their home!”

Meghan Roberts and Chadon Woods, Rocklin
“The home we fell in love with needed dry rot repairs done for us to use FHA financing. We contacted multiple contractors and found that most were not familiar with the 203k process and those that were wanted to charge us a hefty fee just to get involved. At the last minute we called Maria at Hybrid Homes Home Ready Services and she was able to provide us with a detailed estimate for all the work within a couple of days. We chose the services we wanted, and Hybrid Homes completed the work quickly and handled all the paperwork. Hybrid Homes saved us time and money – but most of all, they made the somewhat overwhelming 203k process easy!”

Peter H. Smith, Camino
“Hybrid Homes met with us at the house we were purchasing, listened to our wants and clearly understood the construction needs. The bid for the work was clear and easy to interpret. They worked to stay within our budget and still upgrade the house to satisfy the 203(k) loan program. Once the loan had been secured they started and finished in less than ten days, four days ahead of schedule. Now, a year later, the house still looks great and we are more than satisfied with the results. I would recommend them for anyone considering a 203K or construction loan.”

Patty Thompson, Sacramento
“Hybrid Homes took care of everything: from contractors, to bankers, to permits. I am very pleased with the results of my home, and see the quality of work, especially in the roof, bathroom tiles, paint job, and well . . .everything! Hybrid Homes’ staff are very knowledgeable, efficient, and go out of their way to accommodate any changes requested, even last minute ones. Bravo!”

“Hybrid Homes is the most professional, responsive, and reliable contractor we’ve worked with. They really understand the detailed requirements of the FHA 203(k) and conventional renovation loan documents. Their fast turnaround time keeps the process moving forward. The Hybrid Homes program is the only way I’ve seen to successfully fund these loans within the limited escrow period. Hybrid Homes’ detailed Renovation Proposals support the appraiser in creating higher values and equity on behalf of the buyer. When working with Hybrid Homes, renovation loans are as easy as standard mortgage loans.”

“Hybrid Homes is one of few stable and well funded contractors that can do these types of jobs, complete professional work and not receive payment on it for probably another 4 months. I have 110% confidence in Hybrid Homes/Hybrid Homes’ ability to deliver a quality product.”

“On December 23rd of 2009 a client came to me that had finally secured bank approval on a short sale. The catch was they only gave her until January 15th before they foreclosed, and the house needed a Streamline 203K. We completed her purchase on January 15th.  Hybrid Homes did an incredible job and really came through in helping to make this happen. It was truly an impressive display.”

“This program has saved many transactions from cancelling when repairs were required but buyers only had cash for a down payment. Hybrid Homes guided the homebuyer, and myself, through the process from start to finish. Confidence in Hybrid Homes saves me lots of time and effort, so I can focus on sales. This is great resource I’m recommending to all my buyers.”

“The staff at Hybrid Homes are great to work with and I know that with one call or e-mail, I’ll get competitive bids, along with before and after photos and great workmanship. I have used Hybrid Homes to make repairs on several occasions and I have not been disappointed. As long as they continue to be the low bid, I will continue to use them for all of my REO home repair needs. Hybrid Homes – you make me look good and I appreciate that.
Thank you.”

“I appreciate the quick responses I get by just emailing.  With one quick email, I can get the re-keying done, a proposal for trashout, cleaning and repairs.  The sellers give me very little time to get these tasks done, and Hybrid Homes works in my time frame!”

“The preparation and presentation of the Hybrid Homes bids – complete with before and after photos and a la carte pricing – makes them easy to present to Asset Managers. Their workmanship is top notch and reasonably priced. This is a company that you can trust to do the job right.”

“Banks & Asset Managers typically try not to pay for or make repairs on REO’s, leaving many properties unavailable to FHA financed buyers. The 203(k) loan is a solution, and with Hybrid Home’s program we are assured a successful on-time closing. The Hybrid Homes program opens up these “cash only” sales to a much larger buyer pool.”
