As Lisa Wiebelhaus , President of the company ’ s Colorado division , begins : “ Landsea Homes is a publicly traded homebuilder based in Dallas , Texas . We ’ re all about creating exceptional living experiences in some of the nation ’ s most desirable markets , including Arizona , Colorado , Florida , Northern and Southern California , and Texas . We design and build everything from single family detached homes to three story townhomes and entire master planned communities .

“ Our CEO , John Ho , founded Landsea Homes in 2013 . It was the first company he ever started , and he built a team of people , from employees to partners , who were as committed and eager as he was to fulfil Landsea Homes ’ initial vision . Together , we ’ re driven to become one of the nation ’ s leading homebuilders .
“ In 2021 , nine years after Landsea Homes was founded , the company went public and closed its first day on Wall Street worth roughly $ 450 million . More recently , Colorado became the seventh homebuilding market for Landsea Homes , after we acquired a Colorado-based homebuilder last October . “ What sets us apart is our focus on innovation and sustainability . We ’ re proud to have been named Green Home Builder Magazine ’ s 2023 Builder of the Year , and we ’ re known for our High Performance Homes that combine energy efficiency with the latest in smart home technology . It ’ s all about helping our buyers live in their element , by creating homes that not only look great but also make life easier , healthier , and more comfortable .
