Veev Homes Deliver Smart Sustainable Living in Prime San Jose Locations

Veev is one of the most unique and innovative homebuilders I have ever come across. For decades I have felt that homebuilding was ripe for disruption, and I'm honestly surprised it has taken this long to see someone to try and shake up the market. I have recently enjoyed both an in-depth tour of a Veev home in my neighborhood as well as a visit to the factory where the homes are built (yes, I said factory).

This builder, which was purchased by Lennar in 2023, relies on advanced panelized construction that assembles homes with remarkable efficiency using durable frames and high-performance materials. The walls are the real product as they house plumbing and electrical wiring straight from the factory and then are assembled like Legos at the homesite. These elements reduce waste significantly during building and at high volumes have the potential to greatly reduce both costs and construction timelines.

Looking at the exterior and interior, a Veev home looks completely normal. You would never guess that this was mostly built inside of a 500,000 SQFT Tesla-like factory and assembled in about 60 days. Most new builds require anywhere from 1-2 years of permits and construction at the homesite.

Veev currently has two different models of homes and both are generously-sized around 3,000 SQFT. Their first mass-production solution is called the Model E. It's ultra-modern, especially the interior with LED edge-lighting everywhere and slick finishes which you can see above.

You can find a Veev Model E in San Jose at 5973 Tandera Avenue in the Blossom Hill area by Oakridge. The price is $847/SQFT, which is lower than most new construction homes in the area. Other locations include 2820 Cardinal Lane (Willow Glen), 2652 Orinda Drive (Evergreen), and 304 Curie Drive (Blossom Hill).

I personally love this interior style, but they have decided to go a bit more traditional with the sequel, called the Model X. The exact interiors for the Model X are still being worked on, but I had a chance to see the model in the factory and would honestly move into either the Model E or X tomorrow. The Model X also features a grand entrance with a soaring ceiling height and an attached ADU, perfect multi-generational living or generating rental income on the side.

In addition to Veev selling homes directly, if you already own the land you can also have them build on your site. Including the teardown of the existing home, it's possible to get a brand new ~3,000 SQFT home for under $1 million. The hard part is finding low-cost land in San Jose that is large enough to accommodate the footprint. Long term, Veev also plans to offer smaller homes which will help cut costs further and open up more possibilities for potential homesites. 

The way single-family homes are built today is crazy. It's essentially like building a custom home every single time. By moving most of the construction to a factory, economies of scale and improved efficiency will help open up more affordable and higher quality housing options. Veev is an early mover and obviously at the higher-end of the market, but I truly hope other homebuilders will adopt this model and disrupt housing at all price points. 

As Veev comes out with new products, I will definitely be featuring them here. For more details and to schedule a viewing to check out one of their homes for yourself, visit https://www.veevsanjose.com.
