We had a great experience with Laura on the sales side, and we’re probably here because of her forthrightness and good counsel, Ron our construction supervisor was very responsive, honest, helpful and delivered a great product, and Neal, our customer service representative, is a delight to work with and gets done what needs to be done to put the high gloss polish on our new home.

The process of buying my dream-home was effortless and exciting. I had some challenges with the buyer of the home I was selling and Shea Team bent-over backwards to accommodate me. High-five Shea!!!

Great sales and post sales experience. Design process is terrible

  • Jindou L.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • November 27, 2020
  • Carlsbad, CA

I loved working with the sales team before we purchased the property. And post sales was great as well. The final product is nice. But the design process was bad. Response was slow and when we got a hold of the designer, it felt like she did not care to really help us. And got to a point where she was not responding to our requests. Kind of like seeing a surgeon who is ready to punch the clock. And I mean we are spending a ton of money to buy the house, at least act like you care.

Shea Homes responded:
Thank you for your feedback, Jindou. I've passed your comment along to the management team for our San Diego division. shea

Good build quality, but not great. Sales process was simple and streamlined. Overall a good experience except for HOA CC&Rs - overkill for 70 home tract.

Good Communication

  • Dan N.

  • Castle Rock, CO

Good communication and follow up by sales staff, construction supervisors, and warranty rep. Very professional. Homes are very close together, Design Center choices somewhat limited. Quality of workmanship and attention to detail by subcontractors is lacking, especially by painters., GE appliances have many issues, and GE has horrible customer service for warranty repairs.

Everyone I’ve encountered during the home buying process with Shea has been extremely professional. The ladies in the front office were great to work with and incredibly accommodating and responsive. There were a couple issues we noticed during our initial walk through, but everything was fixed on the final walk through. Overall, my family and I are extremely happy with our new home! Thank you Shea!

We are beyond pleased with our new home experience with Shea builders- Encanterra. Building a new home across the country is beyond challenging but during a pandemic was unimaginable. Our team was amazing keeping us informed with pictures,emails,texts,and virtual contact . When we finally were able to see our new home in person we were so excited and extremely impressed with the workmanship and quality of our new Shea home.

Professional Service and Construction in a Pandemic

The Shea team, from their sales staff to their construction crews and quality control people, following the move-in have provided us a good experience. In the middle of our purchase, the pandemic hit, and there were some delays; however, we were pleased with how hard the Shea group worked to meet their deadlines and give us their professional treatment every step of the way from construction to the move-in.

Overall a reasonable experience. While a large company centered on process, people make or break their experience. We did run into some bad apples, but that was made up to some degree by others. We are still awaiting for the customer service to meet our expectations.

Shea homes have a reputation for building a well constructed home and that’s why I chose them over other developers in the area. Great club house with many classes to choose from.

Good Experience in buying the house

  • Abhishek R.

The process of buying the house was good. It was not easy but it is long and gone through step by step process. The only thing I was hoping about the property tax amount should have been mentioned clearly during initial days of the purchase of the house when they have sold many house in the same complex. The amount was not clear until last min to us. Except that I had good experience in buying the house with Shea.

Kudos to shea for coming up with a new, innovative, out of the box floorplan. Our single level flourish model is beautiful and we love it! Only wish that the design center had more samples of their finishes. Some of the samples did not show the variations in the material (which is normal), but not to the extent we encountered. Although it was a little misleading, we made it work, and after 90 days we're still in love!
