Tradewinds Contracting in Boise Idaho Recommendations or References

Can anyone provide some recent feedback on working with Tradewinds Contracting in Boise / Garden City Idaho? The owner is Steve Martinez. 

They appear to be a premier builder in the Boise area however we are looking for some references. They appear in Houzz and other online publications. In this challenging building environment we are wondering if they are a viable candidate to build a home in Boise Idaho. We have found several other builders for the neighborhood we are looking at however the lot we want is "taken" by Tradewinds and they would be the custom home builder for this lot in Eagle, Idaho. http://tradewindsofidaho.com/ is their website. 

You can email drenner @ summitsol. com if you have any feedback good or bad on Tradewinds. You can also comment here on the blog. 

Thank you!

UPDATE 4/4/2022

These are my last text messages to Steve Martinez, Owner, Tradewinds of Idaho from February 9,2022:

Feb 9:  "Hi Steve, Just halt our project till Leann is fired.  Thanks.  Best, Doug

            I have never had a worse business experience in my life."

Feb 10:  "Hi Steve, when can we talk?"

Of note related to this.  Steve told me to my face on or about December 10th, 2021 that he was going to fire Leann in January of 2022.  She is still there as of 4/4/2022.   Furthermore, Steve has to date not answered either one of those texts.  I would not recommend them to dig a hole much less build a house.  UN-Customer service appears to be their MO.
