We built with Excel in Airdrie a few years back and they built a pretty simple home so make sure you don't pay too much. They don't give you much choice for selections from our experience, but I do have to admit that there show homes did show a lot of standards at the time so when we went to go choose stuff like kitchen cabinets there standard selections were pretty good. I also remember there lighting selection being good also. We are currently building again with another builder in Calgary (Cedarglen) and we've noticed we have way more appointments then we had with Excel and we have a better idea of what our house will exactly look like then we did with Excel, but at the end of the day we are paying $50,000 more. I found with Excel the quality was a bit lower but so were there prices, we got a brand new 1800 square foot home in Airdrie 2 years ago for $401,000 not too bad.
