AMERICA'S MOST TRUSTED ACTIVE ADULT RESORT HOME BUILDER
You are about to choose an active adult resort community as your next home in life, and you have a critical decision making question, can I trust this home builder? For people looking to purchase a home in an active adult 55 plus community, trust is among the most important considerations they make.
At Lifestory Research, we have always wondered how trust plays a role in the decision-making of someone making a new home purchase. From this question, we developed an ongoing research program that we call America's Most Trusted in which we ask people who are actively searching and shopping for a new home which builders do they trust. This research program has now been collecting answers to this question for the last ten years, and once a year, we stop, and we analyze, and we share the insights of what consumers tell us are the brands that they trust the most.
This year, in the Lifestory Research 2021 America's Most Trusted® Active Adult Resort Builder Study, we found for the ninth year in a row Trilogy by Shea Homes is the brand most trusted. Trilogy received the highest trust ratings among the most popular active adult resort brands. As the 2021 Lifestory Research America's Most Trusted® Active Adult Resort Builder brand, Trilogy produced a Net Trust Quotient Score of 122.3 and received the 5 Star Trust Rating among people shopping for an active adult resort community.

WHICH 55 PLUS BUILDER CAN YOU TRUST?
The 2021 ranking of Active Adult Resort Builders is from 15,222 people surveyed between January and December in the United States, among customers actively shopping for a new home in an active adult 55+ resort community.
