All those that I have dealt with are swift in response, caring, professional and courteous. Special shout out to Owen Crannell. He often went over and above the call of duty.

Loved the sales process, but was very disappointed with the design center

  • Eric S.

Be prepared to do a fair amount of tile, color, flooring shopping and design ideas on your own before meeting in the design center as the time is limited and the choices even more limited.

Lack of concern after closing

  • Barbara K.

  • Indio, CA

Our brand new fridge did not work, four rooms of our home only had primer on walls and was not painted until two months after we moved in. We had to move all furniture and walk hangings again. Many other issues. Very unhappy with how all of this was taken care of.

Support and communication with job site manager was terrific. We have also enjoyed our relationship with the C/S rep following completion.

There have been some issues with workmanship and materials but most of these have been taken care of in a reasonable time period. The homeowners association follow through, however, has been extremely poor and we are somewhat concerned about that going forward.

Shea Homes - Trilogy - Building a new home with Shea was a great example of what happens

Building a new home with Shea was a great example of what happens when relationships work and everyone involved has the best interests of the buyer at heart. I have only positive things to say about the staff and their responsiveness. Not everything was perfect but all was taken care of promptly and professionally. We are delighted with our new home!

I know its hot market and you are trying to build fast. But the decrease in quality is showing. I have a family member who bough with shea a few years ago and the quality difference is night and day. The workmanship has dropped. Change your subs or have a talk with them.

Building a new home has a lot of layers involved! There are processes and people put in place with Shea to help every step of the way. They are very responsive, patient, and knowledgeable. I am so in love with our new home and couldn't have done it without the Shea team!

Nice house, just fair quality and bad Customer Care :(

  • Leandro S.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • October 26, 2021
  • Spring, TX

Shea built us a nice house but after closing the Customer Care disappears ... The overall quality of the house is average. The buying process was good, the choice of external materials and features was terribly poor: only a few samples of bricks and stones, no catalogs to see or images, just use your imagination to try to understand the final result, this is it was very frustrating. The Design Center is a trap for customers, just adding really basic upgrades (or simply changing some materials) the prices rises easily about 20K+. The "included" materials are really ugly. At Closing my front ...

This was our first home in California and starting from day 1, our experience was extremely positive. From home lottery, then paper work, design studio and till hand over, each activities were professionally orchestrated well. Same experience for mortgage part as well. Lastly when we got our home and enjoying it every day, even the after sale service is of an extremely high standard. I would definitely recommend.

From day one, every person was professional and helpful. They listen and got answers to all of my questions. We purchased from out-of-state and received whatever we needed. Communication was excellent. The house is amazing! Any issues are addressed and ours have been minor. I highly recommend working with Shea Homes!

Building a new home during a Pandemic has proved challenging as many materials have been a challenge to source. Many shortages which resulted in delays and possibly affected the quality of workmanship and materials resulting in some re-work. Overall, we are happy with our new home.
