We just closed on our home in Feb. 25, and it really was a better process than expected. The house is very nice and we’re really happy with it, but it’s still just a spec home. Nothing really great about it, but it is a nice home. I would buy from Richmond all over again, but just for the staff that we worked with. Ricardo & the sales staff were so helpful and accommodating even after the closing. Reon and the construction staff did an amazing job and kept on contractors for the few repairs there were. It’s almost been a month since we closed and I count these people as friends. I can still ...

Sylvia was very helpful and professional; Along with my agent, I was shown multiple options, all my questions were answered, and the final purchase process was friendly and straightforward; I was buying from out of state and have not yet moved in full time, but Richmond American helped my agent make this intimidating process very pleasant.

The office staff was amazing. Jennifer and Teresa always made me feel welcome and did their best to answer questions and address my concerns. I like the floor plan and feel the home is well built, but I do not like that I had absolutely no say in the finishes or the quality. I have already replaced some of the lighting and hardware and I am sure we’ll have to replace fixtures and flooring in a few years. There also was no option to insulate the garage or garage doors, which is a must in Arizona weather. I purchased the home because they offered RV garages, which are great. So far, ...

Jaelle has been and continues to be very helpful through the buying process of home.shr showed us a couple of models . It was a move in quick home. We loved the home and for the price we felt very happy that we were given a good deal. We quickly put down payment and within two weeks we owned and closed house. She also helped by opening home to workers or packages I had sent to house. She is very trustworthy. I continue to ask questions after moving in and all the girls in office and dj got home warranty have been so helpful and made buying and taking care of house worry free. Thank you ...

I had an absolutely amazing experience purchasing my home from Richmond American! From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, transparent, and truly enjoyable. The quality of the home exceeded my expectations, and every step along the way was handled with professionalism and care. A huge shoutout to Josh Watkins from the Home Care team and Sales Associate German Gallegos—they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and commitment to customer satisfaction made this experience even better. I couldn’t be happier with my ...

Grant worked with me and my family as professional, prompt and well mannered as it could have been. He was courteous and knowledgeable as well. He really impressed me with his ability to multitask and answer my calls, text messages, and questions promptly. He made himself available to me afterhours which was above and beyond my expectations . He even went as far as greeting me personally my very first stay in my new home

Overall I had a good experience buying my first home. My sales rep was amazing. She reassured me the entire time, didn’t pressure me, and overall made me feel like I could do it. Buying your first home can be so nerve wracking but she was such a calming presence and made it a lot smoother. The loan officer I worked with was awesome too. She was very responsive and laid everything out clearly. I had a great experience with the title company as well. Very responsive, answered all my questions and signing went very smoothly. Where the issues started happening was with the loan processor (or back ...

Bottle of urine found behind drywall of our home

  • Kenneth M.

  • March 07, 2025
  • Windsor, CO

Our home required removal of a shower pan and some tile/drywall. When the drywall was removed, a water bottle full of urine was found. I’m happy to provide a picture for proof. Overall, the craftsmanship of the home has been lacking. We’ve had to contact the warranty representative frequently. It’s disappointing considering what was paid for the home. We already have concerns about its’ longevity.

Richmond American Homes responded:
Hi, Kenneth. I'm so sorry to hear you've had a disappointing experience with our Warranty. Please email jeff.jenkins@mdch.com if there are any outstanding items in your home I can make our local team aware of.

Poor Communication

  • Sean G.

  • March 05, 2025
  • Firestone, CO

Richmond American employees at the build site did not appear to care about the buyer’s experience. Each week, we would receive an update on work that would be done the following week and each week, it was the same work. In other words, for 5-6 weeks, absolutely no progress was made on our build. We had to involve our realtor several times to follow up and go onsite to speak to employees. The superintendent Nick created a lack of trust with Richmond and even after move-in, a several items from our final walk through have not been completed including items that violate local code (international ...

We have bought several homes, even built a custom home, the home buying process with Richmond was likely the best experience we have had. The quality of the materials, the selections of the mechanicals, they just go above and beyond and are not a typical contractor trying to hit the “industry standard”. We feel this was a good investment and something we are confident will return on that investment down the road. Thanks!

Unexpected DREAM home

We had a very good experience overall. We found a dream home that we weren’t even looking for. The sales representative was wonderful, helpful and informative, but not pushy or annoying like someone can be. Every other interaction was genuine, straightforward, and met expectations. We are very happy with our purchase and our beautiful home.

Andrew is very quick to respond when an issue or need arises. The subcontractors have also been quick to respond and very communicative. Negatives...... All bathroom vanities don't have drawers, that is a zero on a scale of 1-10. Also the toilets are extremely low.
