From start to finish the team at Shea Homes has been a delight to work with. They have made us feel welcome and at home from the very beginning. We love our Shea Home more than we dreamed we would. The quality of the build is better than any home we've ever owned. Thank you Shea for a an experience that met and surpased our expectations.

As a Starter Home Good Quality for the Price

  • Spencer T.

  • Ontario, CA

Shea Homes did a great job with the sales process, most but not all of their employees were great and accommodating. This being a starter home I was not expecting everything to be amazing but it was not bad. There are definitely some areas where they could have done better such as having gutters over the rear patio door to keep rain from splashing into the home if your door was open. Better quality control for, paint,(there are paint drops on the floor, towel bars, island etc), cabinet install (drawers do not slide well, and the blemishes and wrong install inside the boxes were just covered ...

Post sale support is not ideal

The post sale representative doesn't do his best job to inspect and verify if the issues have resolved. The manner is subpar and I don't feel respected as a shea home owner.

This is the second home my husband and I have purchased and the experience was amazing. Matt was super friendly and so helpful. Any questions we had, he answered. And if he didn't have the answer, he called around until he got us an answer. Shea really takes buying a home to another, more enjoyable, less stressful level. My cousin was with us as we purchased our home and seeing how we were treated and how happy we are, she went with Shea and just moved into her own home. JUST A FEW HOUSES FROM US! Shea truly is about quality and not quantity, unlike every other builder we've looked into. ...

The experience was seamless. The only thing that was a bit of a concern was the field manager turn over (3). They addressed all the concerns that the outside hired home inspector found.

Disappointing purchase process

  • Janet B.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • February 25, 2024
  • Wickenburg, AZ

I love my house but was disappointed at the rush for me to sign papers when I was away in Turkey. I notified Shea that I would be in Turkey and would sign when I return if everything was ready at that time. I was assured that was ok. I find out after I had to sign, while in Turkey at 2:30am, a few nights in a row, that upon my return my house price went down $100,000 and an incentive greater than I was given was now offered. Not pleased with that transpiring.

I have bought more than one Shea homes due to there quality and customer service and decided to buy this one too from Shea homes. Man what a big mistake, the sale person specially Cathy was just a pain. She made us feel so low from day one and more of a pain during closing. I couldn't understand why she makes stories and screams on you to get her point. I am never ever going to buy anymore homes from Shea just for that reason.

Quick build means room for errors

  • Yevgeniya M.

The house is great and they built it pretty quickly. But as with any multiunit that supposed by the deadline to please buyers the workmanship suffers and the result shows it. The warranty is great but certain things can’t be fixed since you already live in the house and it is hard to get people to come out to fix things.

Teamwork Built Our Home

  • San Tan Valley, AZ

From the moment we visited the project to the day we received the keys the Shea Team invited us in to our home building process. With so many steps along the way Shea followed their process to prepare for and finish steps along the way. As a buyer we have to trust and as a buyer we have to follow through on buyer’s responsibilities. When everyone is working together success is the outcome. Overall communication is vital and Shea does that very well. Comparing Shea projects with other projects it is almost not fair. Many builders try to keep buyers away from the process which results in ...

Pros: quality of work is good. Shea builds good solid homes. I think this is developing into a really good community. They have been responsive to issues, and they are fixing. The warranty specialist is super friendly, does a good job making his rounds and getting things fixed. Value for price is good for this area and only getting more expensive. Has a community pool and developing pocket parks. The folks in the model home offices are very nice friendly and helpful, even after you move in, they are there to assist if you have any questions. Has an HOA Cons: Water heater is ...
