I would be more comfortable going with a higher end builder at that price range than a large scale price competitive builder like DR Horton.

DR Horton doesn't have a great reputation.

I was also told that DR Horton did not have a good rep but I have a friend and nephew who both own dr horton homes and they are happy with them, neither house is in that price range though. I would probably go with a higher end builder if possible.

D.R. Horton= Not good rep.
Go with something more high ended! Ex: David Weekly, Perry, Newmark, Coventry, Imperial, etc.
Custom homes might be a bit too expensive.
