The location and amenities in Trilogy

  • Paul N.

  • Bonney Lake, WA

Pretty nice home and customer service overall is so far okay. Beware of what is standard and included in the price vs. what is considered an upgrade extra. They can add up to a premium price very quickly. Attention to detail in the fit and finish during construction could use a bit of improvement with closer quality control.

Love our new home and location

House was delivered on time as stated several months prior. We were sent pictures and updates of the progress. Had virtual meetings with design teams and two on-site walkthroughs, as we lived hundreds of miles away at the time. There were a couple of issues when we moved in, but Shea took care of them right away. We love our new home and the location.

Shea makes the extra effort, whether it’s extra care in leveling walls, changing to a better AC Vendor midstream or providing upgraded door locks, thermostats and garage doors. They even bought and installed longer fan operation chains when I let them know during the walk-through that they were too short.

It is very difficult to find a quality built home of 2000 square feet or more in California for under $750,000 but here at Rice Ranch, in a wonderful community, at home with nature we have found just that.

Shea Homes - Trilogy - Overall excellent experience.

Overall excellent experience. Our site manager (Billy) was outstanding in communication and keeping us informed on progress. Very pleased with workmanship. Our only complaints related to the planning process with regard to finishes. We would have preferred more customization capability, rather than being limited to “packages” of upgrades. And dealing with the various “designers”, who at the end of the day were really little more than administrative staff, was extremely cumbersome and at times frustrating. And indeed, at the end of the day there were a good number of upgrades that we ordered ...

The quality. Also, standard items such as 5” baseboards and other builders has that as an upgrade. The Twin Mills Club was the real sell for us as it is a place we will use a lot. From the pools, amphitheater, restaurant, demonstration kitchen, etc. love love love it. And the Freedom Boat Club is the icing on the cake.

Miscommunications and quality control disappointment

There were several miscommunications with the Shea sales. It ultimately was resolved but it was a hassle That I had to fight and argue each time, Something that no one should go through during the purchase of a new own. So stressful. The quality control is not up to the level that I would expect. There were several things that needed to be replaced and fixed upon moving in. It’s like they are just slapping these homes together so fast and the quality is lacking.

I have purchased three houses from Shea in Recker Pointer community. Of the three houses, two have really bad issue with heating and Ac system. Multiple attempts to fix the issue did not get resolved and I was told that heating contractor is not responsible for the vent installation. I have try to reach out to Shea and no response yet. This is not acceptable since we have bought three houses brand new. Please have Shea representative to contact me and resolve the issue.

Two and a half months to get a garage door.

  • C H.

  • Wickenburg, AZ

Originally Shea didn't want us to close in mid-December until a much delayed garage door arrived and was installed. They finally agreed to install an alternative garage door to allow us to proceed with our closing. That was much appreciated. Our garage door finally arrived over a month later and was installed but had two damaged panels. Replacement panels arrived damaged. We are now approaching a three month wait without an acceptable door. We've asked our damaged door to be painted the proper color to allow our home to appear completed from a distance, but Shea has refused.

We had a great experience building our first home through Shea communities. Everyone we have worked with has been helpful and pleasant. They have also been great about fixing any issues that have come up since moving in and are responsive if we have any questions. We are very excited to be a part of the new Solstice community and can’t wait to see it finished!
