Buying a new home is always a very involved process and The Shea staff has been very communicative and serving and have followed through thoroughly and professionally on any challenge that presented itself... with a great attitude. We felt very “taken care of” throughout the process.

From the moment I inquired about buying a Shea Home, the experience was amazing. Everyone was great to work with and very understanding. They we're knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I really like what Shea offered over some of the other builders. Some of their options that other builders charge for were standard features for Shea. I really enjoyed working with the community rep, some of the design center reps, and the project manager. The excitement of having a new home built is so much fun and not having any issues made it that much more enjoyable. Any issues or concerns that were ...

New home met our expectations. A few minor issues; however, response to service requests have been slow or ignored altogether. Leaves a sour note on an otherwise good experience.

Our experience with Shea has been very positive, from identifying the community, spending time talking with the design, build, sales and support members who gave us comprehensive information. The homes are high quality with plenty of upgrade options available. The location of our Trilogy location is fantastic: close to shopping, medical and services needed. Plus it’s close to highway arteries that make transit easy.

We had a problem with work verification as the info needed was not asked for until a week before closing. While it worked out in the end it did cause much worries.

My heater went out and this was not considered urgent. It was only 60 in the house. My mom is 75 and can’t do stairs so she was freezing. But nope not even a call back. Ridiculous.

Shea Homes responded:
Hi Maria, we regret that you were unhappy with how this situation was handled. We’ll have a manager reach out to you to discuss this. shea

Your sales person lied and deceive us .I was told several times this was strictly 55+. Also you didn't declose Tilogy was being sold .Don't lie again and tell me Shea didn't know about the sale. I just put my house for sale. I won't be lied to any longer. I can only wish Shea falls on bad time as you deserve it. I believe in Karma. I only hope it will be good riddons sooner than later.

Love the Ranch and layout, love the design of the homes, love the friendliness of the community. Disappointed in the quality of our home. One month punch list has 38 items to be fixed/corrected and growing daily. Just yesterday we both went into the bedroom and closed the door; couldn’t get out. Used the patio door and electric door to get back in.
