This Website includes information from first-hand experiences and formal documentation about Lee Homes and their adverse and unethical treatment of their customers; shoddy, dangerous, and unsupervised building practices that resulted in at least one grossly defective home; and violations of city ordinances that resulted in unhealthy and untenable living conditions for homebuyers at their recent development in Woodland Hills, California.

NEW!! Notable quotes by Lee's officers that provide insights into their business methodology and practices.

Jeff Lee, President of Lee Homes quoted from a January 17, 2008 Los Angeles Times article (by Duke Helfand):
"Housing projects, gangs, bad neighborhoods, that's our business model."

Mike Adler, Chief Executive Officer, quoted from an HOA meeting at one of their newer developments when Lee oppressively still controlled the board for their own purposes:
Responding to a room full of irate homebuyers about a myriad of construction defect and quality issues he stated:  "well what do you expect?; we're not custom homebuilders".  He then went on to say:  "you guys are pretty well controlled, I've been to some of these at our other developments when people were really irate".

Other officers affiliated with this turbid bunch:
Harlan Lee, Chairman
Calvin Sweet, Vice Chairman
Mike Conlon, Vice President of Construction
David Magdych, Vice President of Construction

Links to legal documents and a lawsuit filed by Lee Homes against their customer, as well as information of other legal actions that were initiated by Lee to intimidate and degrade their customers because they dared to stand up to them are also provided and some additionally may be provided in the future below.
The documentation of an ongoing counter lawsuit that a homeowner found it necessary to file, still incurring substantial legal fees to protect their rights is also displayed.  Details of possible pending litigation by at least one Lee built development's Homeowners Association against Lee Homes may also be made available.

Link to Lee's frivolous lawsuit filed against their customer (2007). Coming Soon
Answer to Lee's complaint necessary to be addressed by their customer for their own protection (2007). Coming Soon
Cross-Complaint lawsuit necessary to force Lee to be accountable which they continue to refuse to fully be. (April 2009 and they continue to hide behind their attorneys and their insurance company's attorneys instead of swiftly moving forward towards resolution of all claims as was agreed to be done by July 30, 2008). Coming Soon
Agreement after mediation April 2008 to resolve all "fix the house" issues by July 30, 2008 - re-CONSTRUCTION NOT EVEN STARTED AFTER ALMOST A FULL YEAR LATE FOR COMPLETION (May 2009). Coming Soon

Coming soon: 
Reports of defect issues including adverse general building, structural and geological issues still to be fully disclosed, evaluated and confirmed from reports by professionals that Lee was mandated to hire and finally did.
To date, and after a full year since mediation, only partial disclosure and assessments of these ongoing issues at their development have been minimally completed.
It's not easy to hold these slimy people accountable but we are committed to stay the course.

Christmas Time 2006
Welcome to Your New Lee Home; Where 6 months Earlier (a Full Year Late From the Represented Completion) When Conditions Were Even Filthier,
You Were Forced to Close Escrow or Threatened to Not Have Your Money Refunded, and Had Plans to Construct Exterior Improvements Approved Then Immediately After the Close of Escrow Have That Approval Rescinded;
and for the next Full Year and a Half Variations of Scenes Like This Continued (Many Much Worse).
We're now into our Fifth Year of Trying to Make Lee "Do the Right Thing"
More Pictures of Conditions, Damages, and Defects Coming Here Soon
Videos to be available Here and on YouTube Soon

Unhealthy Conditions, Dust and Filth, Noise, and Constant Disruption to
Duped Homeowners Continued for Years at a Largely Unsupervised Lee Homes Development
(This is a Gated Cul de Sac Where There Was No Escape From These Conditions)
Imagine Waking Extremely Early Every Morning and On Weekends to Constant Back-up Beepers, Heavy Equipment Noise and Rumbling;
Imagine the 'Roach Coach' Horn and Breathe in the Fried Food Stench Mixed with Diesel Exhaust and Illegally Unmitigated Blowing Dust and Dirt;
Then Top it Off with a Little Bit of Daily Ice Cream Truck Music for the Obnoxious, Threatening, and Uncaring Workers with one even hired directly by Lee Homes who bragged of his Felony Record for "Beating Up and Robbing an Old Lady", and You May Begin to Appreciate What Hell was Inflicted on Lee Homes' Victims (Customers) over the Many Years it Took Them to Construct Just 44 Dwellings.
Also Many Other and Constant Violations of L.A. City Ordinances Were Committed by Lee Homes.
(To be disclosed here soon)
