Services
Lokal Homes began from a vision created by Dave Lemnah and Ryan Lantz, both having received an eye-opening education from their experience working for large production homebuilders. Our business model is the sum of our experiences: A Higher Standard - deliver a better living experience, designed for the Colorado lifestyle, and offer an elevated set of standards - where a new home has a large variety of upgrades and options included.
David Lemnah and co-owner Ryan Lantz also believe their company's customer-focused culture has been a big contributor to growth. We have the luxury of focusing on things the big public homebuilders don't. Lokal Homes LLC's name comes from its focus on being a local, rather than national, homebuilder that knows what Colorado homebuyers want and provides it.
Every home search starts with location. We select our locations based on what Colorado buyers are looking for most; whether that's access to major highways, walking distance to dinner and a movie, or just a community to call home to their family. You can find a home as far north as Fort Collins and as far south as Colorado Springs and just about everywhere in between.
Building a home is one of the most exciting experiences in a person's life. We understand how important it is to create a safe and warm environment to create lasting memories in. To protect you and your family, we ensure a construction manager follows our standard building practices along with municipality inspections to build your home.
At Lokal Homes we take pride in delivering an unrivaled customer experience for each homebuyer. We understand that buying a home is a huge investment - personally and financially, and we're committed to delivering a home and a building experience you'll be proud to share with your family and friends.

My husband and I bought our home in 2019, we love our home and the community, but we have had warranty issues that have not been completed. We have worked with countless staff and have had countless conversations to solve our builder issues. Due to staff turnover and lack of follow through we still today have unfinished warranty issues. The warranty staff shows lack of customer service professionalism and empathy for it's home owners. Beware before your buy!!!

Overall poor quality and even worse craftsmanship. The finishing details throughout our entire home look like they were handled by intoxicated amateurs (we found numerous empty beer bottles and shooters in our crawl space). Damaged drywall installation is just painted over; texture looks like chunky vomit on the walls, not knockdown; they installed a warped staircase; grout and caulking are shoddy; mason work on the outside pillars is crooked; only two months after living in the home, lots of cracking and separating on drywall, trim, corner bead. They tell you they will fix issues with warranty

We have purchased a home with Lokal Homes in Two Bridges. We started out Journey with Mary Jane to purchase and she has been great! As everything has gone crazy over the last year it is taking a while to get the house built, but they have been calling us consistently to let us know what is going on, instead of us trying to find out ourselves. The whole experience has been very smooth. They personnel for decor choices, electrical and project management have all been very pleasant to work with. They have been very honest about everything and not trying to feed us stories. Even talking with some neighbors

Lokal is awesome! We’ve lived in our new home in Buffalo Run for just over a month now and can’t say enough good things! The build quality is far superior to other builders that we looked at and a lot of typically “premium” upgrades come standard! The layout of our house is absolutely perfect and definitely maximizes the usable space. We did have some hiccups in the construction process, but Lokal went above and beyond to make sure we understood how sorry they were, and our home moved along quickly after that. I know some people have reviewed that once you move in they don’t care about

We contacted Lokal about a stair being wobbly and they came out right away to help adjust the issue. The gentlemen that was sent out was professional and all around a good guy. Their project manager checked in after the work was done to make sure we were satisfied, which we were. Thanks Lokal for the professional customer service and high quality service.

I live in a new Lokal community in Castle Rock and we have had numerous issues with the sprinkler system and landscaping installed by Nu Style, the landscaper Lokal chose. The sprinklers and drip line have not worked properly all summer, numerous plants have died and Lokal and Nu Style have been telling the community for the past 2 months these items would be taken care of and still nothing despite many communication attempts from the HOA board and the property manager. It has been a very frustrating experience as last summer we all lived with several delays on installing landscaping and now this

You have been warned. Do not, under any circumstances, buy a Lokal home. You will regret it. There isn't enough room on a Yelp review to talk about all the unacceptable things they do, but if you want to message me, I will give you my number to discuss. I wrote a terrible review when I moved in, but so many more things went wrong, I had to update it. Everything from top to bottom has gone wrong. When I moved in, there were over 10 things wrong, and as you can see from the reviews, their warranty department is horrible. They have gone through many people in the last few years. All they

Would never buy a Lokal home again. Worst buying experience out of 7 home purchases. Worst construction, customer service, and warranty. Felt misled on so many fronts. The Sales people and superintendents are changing constantly and no one ever returns a phone call. Disappointing experience, disappointing house.

Lokal Homes is in the process of building our new home in the Two Bridges Community just outside of Parker. We could not be more excited! Mary Jane at the sales office is always very professional and has been a joy to work with. The process of building a home is a journey with many things that can happen. This is our second house we have built and this time things could not be any more different than the first home we built with Richmond Homes. This builder and specifically Mary Jane has been quick to help us and give us answers to our questions and helped us as we have made many decisions along

Incredible, unique homes built by a locally-owned company. From the construction, sales and warranty team, they truly care about their customers. As a Colorado Realtor, I have been referring buyers to Lokal Homes since 2013 and I love selling Lokal Homes. From start to finish, Lokal makes the home buying process a wonderful experience for my clients. Each home is thoughtfully laid out and buyers can feel the difference when they walk through the front door! Lokal continually updates my clients on the progress of their homes. I highly recommend Lokal to all of my clients and other Realtor Partners

I have never been more disappointed in ANY business than how this builder operates. We have been in our home over a year and maybe 1/8 of the warranty work has even been attempted. The sad thing is that's the not the worst part, a few weeks after we moved in we learned from our neighbors that there was a major flood in our home (some neighbors say there were 2 floods) this (or these) significant flood events were not disclosed to us by the builder or the sales staff. After thousands and thousands of dollars to environmentalists, lawyers, etc. Lokal Homes has barely responded. Several months

UPDATE 2: Lokal Homes canceling my contract was a blessing in disguise. I happen peruse the Pike's Peak Regional Building Department website to see the status of inspections/permits and WOW. These people can't pass an inspection the first time to save their life. Here are some comments:
"Failed: inspection stopped / too many items / need complete reinspection / missing wall at truss at unit separation wall / missing all doors and window at garage / side wall door and window at garage is not on plans / details call 1/4" x 41/2" SDS screw 24" OC at garage ledgers

I entered an agreement with Lokal to purchase a home in Oct 2017. Things changed and I reached an agreement with the sales manager to cancel the loan WITH my earnest money being refunding. However, the main office rejected the refund. Lokal sold that home for an additional $15K and they are refusing to return my earnest money of $5K because of damages. HUH?! Contractually they can keep the money, but as an honest Colorado home builder they say to be, THAT IS NOT TRUE! Terrible business!

I originally marked them as a 5 because the communication of the salesman who took care of us was outstanding. Unfortunately, he left the company and now there is NO COMMUNICATION! Yes. Our house is built and it is beautiful but I referred my sister to build and it was a little less communicative. I was promised $500 for a referral and never received it. I've tried to contact someone and never get w a return call. Very frustrating and disappointing.

Our new house is so special to me. Once my parents got a divorce, we had to live with our grandparents for a year. Then we lived in a two bedroom apartment for three years, and now live in a beautiful home in Aurora Colorado. The model works great, and there were many options to choose from (flooring, tile, carpet, etc.) The price is the usual expensive Colorado price, but our townhome even has a small backyard, and a crawl space. If you are looking for a well built home, with luxury and compassion, I suggest Lokal.

Knowing what I know now I would never purchase another LOKAL home. As many other people have said, the sales process was great and after that, it turns into a first world nightmare on warranty items. Absolutely terrible communication, have had to take five days off from work and still all of my items from September, 2018 are not completed. The coordinator in charge of warranty items lies. She tells her people internally that all home owners have been taken care of when that is not the case. Our neighbor had to call LOKAL 28 times to get attention to their items.

As a local Realtor, it's always a treat to work with a really excellent builder and Lokal seriously deserves kudos. I have a few clients who have just recently completed their orientations with Lokal for their new homes at Outlook Pointe specifically and are ready for and looking forward to closing. Buyers still being excited about moving into their new home is actually quite rare under our current building conditions in Colorado with many other builders... but not Lokal.

Where do I start... I've never seen such excellence in my life. We closed on our home nearly a month ago and while it took some time to get here, that was expected. Our complete experience was nothing less than stellar.
Kim was one of a handful of shining stars in this and guided us through the tedious process of buying a home. She is one of the friendliest, honest, and hardworking people I've ever met. She helped us out when we needed it and while she was inundated with dozens of people in the same situation, I felt like she was dedicated to us. We were so lucky to have her

This was a fun process during the build. The contractor was great (he left though, so I can not vouch for the current one).
The warranty issues were a headache. It is now over two years from the closing of our home and they finally hired a warranty person (Heather) who is is amazing (please give her a big fat raise). She is actually getting EVERYTHING done that is on our huge list of problems, making me feel at ease even during my pregnancy, becoming the best advocate between me and the vendors.

We are thrilled with our decision to build with Lokal Homes! My husband and I were nervous about purchasing our first home and especially when we decided on new construction. Nathan is so easy to get along with and really worked hard to make sure we were comfortable and that we received weekly updates. Also, Nic and Robert did a great job on construction and did a tremendous amount of work in a very short amount of time to make sure that we closed before the end of the year and that we were happy with every element in our new home. Also, on a side note, we are blown away by the "standard"
