Shea Homes Reviews

Both are awesome from sales to service support after turnover of the property!

Nick was very helpful in getting the mortgage

Our overall home purchase experience with Shea Homes Encanterra at Queen Creek was excellent! Amber did an outstanding job from the beginning of our engagement with Encanterra Queen Creek, during the process, all the way to our escrow closing. The Design Team did a very thorough job of presenting the options for our home. Our Project Manager, Antonio, did a professional and thorough explanation during our construction progress visits. The escrow closing team was thorough, timely, and a great no-surprises experience. We closed on time. There were several minor maintenance issues with our home, but Matt has been extremely responsive. The issues were addressed right away without any problems. Overall, a wonderful experience! You are in good hands with Shea Homes Encanterra! ... More

Great home and lot choices

Both Miriam and Tamara were very helpful in giving me any information I needed.

What stands out the most about our home buying experience with Shea has been great people and fabulous, easy communication. This started with the realtor for the community, Berry Staub, who is kind and professional, always follows through, and has become a friend along the journey. Good communication continued throughout the build process as we worked with Wyatt and Kaleb - our project managers. This included emails detailing what stage of the build process we were in and also text communication from the PM's that included pictures of completed projects. They were both easy to talk to and discuss questions, concerns or just review the process with us; Issues were promptly addressed. At close, we were introduced to the warranty team who thoroughly reviewed how the warranty works, what is covered and what is not, how to register our appliances, and how to report issues, if any, All technology was also thoroughly explained by the Foresight team at a White Glove appointment. There were some unforeseen delays due to some design center choices that were discontinued, delayed, and/or arrived damaged, leading to 3 new design center choices being necessary many months into the build. As these weren't specifically Shea 'errors', yet were more related to stock and availability of items chosen, it is difficult to say that it was a Shea problem. What we would have appreciated being different: 1. An online catalogue of Design Center options that we could review prior to our one-time, 4-hour design center appointment. We were expected to quickly make ALL option choices for our home that were not considered structural (ie: cabinet color/design, flooring, handles, etc.) in this single appointment. This led to many back and forth emails with design and the process ended up taking over 6-weeks to complete the choices and to know precisely what the cost of our home would be. Having a second appointment with the designer -or- having the opportunity to review the choices before the appointment would likely have mitigated this long, drawn out process. As we were responsible to pay for the upgrades chosen at time of design center options being chosen, we expected that Shea would be purchasing these items for our home at that time. This is not the process, though. Items selected were purchased just before the build team would need to install them. 2. Some final details that needed touch-ups prior to close were not completed by our initial close date. In fact, it has been two months since we closed and one of the requested fixes is still incomplete. Although our warranty team and project manager are aware of the issue, the problem still exists. What could have/still could be done differently: follow-up with trades and customer to ensure requested work has been completed. Overall, would we buy from Shea again. Absolutely YES! Our home is wonderful and we look forward to enjoying it for years to come. ... More

very responsive to appointment requests.

This is are second home with Shea and their quality hasn’t changed. They offer great quality but to me, the best part, is the quality of service. I would always consider buying from them and recommending them to anyone I know.

Smart home features and operation can be overwhelming particularly for non-tech oriented people. Be prepared for steep learning curve on some things.

All of the sales team were very helpful. Follow up once we were in the home has been great.

Solid well built house. With options we selected, love the finish out. Melba (sales) and Mike (project manager) have been very helpful and responsive. We've been in 2 months and looks all warranty issues are being addressed promptly. My only complaint is the price you charge for some of the upgrades, Example - we were quoted $2,300 to put in an EV outlet. I have a quote for $400 by a 3rd party electrician. Another example - we paid $7,000 for back yard landscaping Ended up with a few rocks, drip irrigation, and a half dozen small plants scattered around haphazardly. That's a joke. Now paying an additional fee to have the whole thing redone. Please tell future customers to just do it on their own and get something of value for 7K instead of the garbage Shea put in the ground. ... More

We had a great team throughout the process. Our home is beautiful and we love it!

Love our new home is Trilogy Sunstone. Shea Homes staff is wonderful to work with. They are friendly and are quick to respond to any issues/concerns. Building our home was a wonderful experience.

We really enjoyed working with Alex and Josephine from a sales perspective, they were great! Gabriel from a post sales quality control perspective was great too! The craftsmanship was good overall but had some areas where corners were cut.

Customer service is supreme, caring, considerate, punctual, with amazing follow up! Sales team was very responsive and helpful!

Everyone from Shea was amazing. We felt like they were truly trying to get us the home that we were looking for and I’d recommend them to anyone

The sales team and the lead construction guys were very helpful and accommodating when discussing and showing us the progress of our home build. There is a lot to learn about the new smart house and the team is continually helping us learn the nuances.

The home buying process was very smooth

Our experience with Shea Homes was exceptional from start to finish. From the bidding process to construction, selecting upgrades, and the final handover, every step was seamless. We were supported by a team of highly skilled and professional individuals who addressed all our concerns with care and efficiency. If given the choice, we would gladly go through the process with them again.

It has been over 30 years since I have purchased a new home and I was very impressed with the customer service throughout the process.; from the sales representative, Charmaine, to the Shea finance group. Everyone was so responsive to my inquiries; regardless how silly some of my questions may have been. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

The building process, design center and warranty processes have all been great. The house design is perfect and the building products are high quality.

Was a very good experience

We had a wonderful experience with Shea from start to finish. We have a few lingering items that need to be addressed and I am hoping all will be done in a timely manner!

Shea had a great selection of what we were looking for in a new home. Also, several modern features were standard which was nice. House is beautiful inside and out. With the small issues that have popped up the warranty team has responded quickly to find solutions

A really wonderful experience overall. Pre Inspection and care were truly exceptional. Follow-ups also were 100%. Lastly, a very easy close. We have owned many homes and this one makes us happy!
