Our Founders: The principals at San Joaquin Valley Homes have over 90 years combined experience building quality homes for Valley residents. Joe Leal, Jim Robinson and Randy Merrill have worked together since 1997 when they helped grow a new home-building operation into a thriving company with over 300 closings a year. The prospering business was acquired by a national homebuilder headquartered in San Diego, and by 2006, they were overseeing the construction of 800+ homes a year in the Valley. The three men discovered they shared the same work ethic and personal values, which strengthened their e?ectiveness as a team. Whenever there was a quality related issue during construction, the men would ask themselves, "Would our own wives be happy with it?" Using this standard earned customer loyalty and trust. They also shared a vision: to own a home-building company in the Valley that incorporated their experience. In 2013 San Joaquin Valley Homes was born. Joe, Jim and Randy are dedicated to being the best at what they do—building quality homes and neighborhoods.
