Richmond American Reviews

Great experience very easy process

If you have to buy a Richmond home make sure to bring an independent company to do inspection for you. the homes are built with all cheap materials and in a mass production manner. If cheap materials are nicely put together i believe it would be a better experience. There were nails poking on the carpet and Joy & Brandon did not see anything wrong with that. Extremely over prized homes based the quality of home/house delivered. Worst exo\perience ever for me personally.

Purchased a ready to move in home. The process was easy and everyone was helpful and friendly. Home has been great so far. Warranty fixes have been timely and few.

This is our seconds time we have bought with Richmond American homes. So far we love our home and any small issues that we found have Been delt with fast. I highly recommend these homes to anyone.

I would like other home buyers to know that agreeing on the price is a choice but not getting a response to an issue from the builder is breach Thank you for ignoring the review

The sales agent in Lodi, CA, is amazing.

House has issues, but nothing that can't be fixed. Buying experience with house selling was horrible.

Laveen team was great! Not pushy, available and accommodating. Janna walked us through the process with patience and sincerity. Richmond Team worked with our Keller Williams Team through some delays and challenges to get us Homez

I would like other home buyers to know never to buy a Richmond American Home. If you are thinking of buying in the Pendleton community, don't! The project manager has every excuse for the poor work. Also, don't trust that they will come back in 30 days. Several of our neighbors never got a 30 day follow up.

Great experience we close on time

Overall a very good experience. Walk through team was amazing. Some areas of concern were not addressed and I was left the supplies to paint these areas myself however DJ is great and responds ASAP

Our overall experience with Richmond was normal. Ms. Ranesha was awesome and helped as much as she could. Overall, we have no complaints.

Everything was great. It was a smooth transaction from start to finish. Definitely recommend!

Great home great buy couldn’t be happier

We bought the house on contingency bases on a few things which was a great option. The house is amazing and the responsiveness for the company was great when we had questions or concerns. We love Richmond so much we suggested the builder to another family member that is now buying a house of their own. We love our realtor Jessi as she has treated us like family.

I had a great experience buying my home. Everything went better than expected, from the communication to the closing process. I felt informed and confident throughout the journey. I couldn’t be happier with how it all turned out. Truly thankful for everyone who helped make it happen!

The purchase process for this home was easy and seamless. We worked with an excellent sales associate who answered questions and was so supportive during the time we worked with him. The construction manager was also good to work with in helping get the house ready to move into. There was a short timeline between purchase and closing and he go everything that needed to be fixed or completed done in that time. He was very responsive to our questions and Pros: The house is quiet and solid. We are happy with the home and are glad we chose Richmond to work with. Cons: the quality of the house painting inside and out is a little disappointing. We will have to do some repainting both inside and out on trim and doors. It is not a big issue. The responsiveness of the after sale personnel is not as good as with the earlier team. Fortunately there have been only a few minor issues to be dealt with to date. Again, we are happy with our home and will recommend Richmond to other prospective buyers. ... More

From the moment we walked into the office with our agent, to the time we closed our loan, everyone was great and very helpful. The day we closed we did our final walk through and learned about all the details of our appliances, tankless water heater, air conditioner, possible drip from extra condensation, to where wires are in the garage and where not to put things on the walls, everything has been Great! Never thought we would buy a new home, yet here we are.

I genuinely loved the overall end-to-end experience. The model home I purchased is beautiful, the interest rate offered was competitive, and the after-purchase care has been outstanding. David and Gabriel, in particular, went above and beyond in addressing a few issues we noted after moving in—they were incredibly responsive and supportive, which made a huge difference. I’ve been enthusiastically recommending this builder and community to my friends and family because I truly enjoy sharing the positive parts of my journey here. That said, I do want to be honest about one frustrating aspect: the sales department—especially Joey—made the initial process more stressful than it needed to be. We encountered several unexpected surprises during the purchase phase, and the communication style felt dismissive and at times unprofessional. It left a sour taste in our mouths and made us question whether we had made the right decision. Thankfully, every other part of the experience has more than made up for that rocky start. We were well taken care of by the rest of the team, and in the end, we’re very happy with our home and this community!! ... More

Great experience so far.

Workmanship is very poor. Quality of products used throughout are less than desirable. Still waiting on repairs from initial walk through and 10 day inspection. Lack of communication post close. They were great to deal with in the beginning to buy the house. Once closed, it’s been complete opposite

Th home supervisor was great

So we love the house and the location. The floor plan is exactly what we have wanted for years and the community is quiet and will be great as we move into retirement. Material quality if very good although I marked down worksmanship because of the many sloppy minor errors made that had to be fixed. I've gone through several houses and honestly the subcontractors need to just care a little bit more and take a little more time. Overcutting holes in drywall, sloppy painting, messy work areas, breaking windows, etc. Just ongoing slopiness that ultimately wastes money. For trustworthiness, this is tied to responsiveness for me. There were several things that needed to be corrected from our final walkthrough and the onsite superintendent just didn't do anything with them. This led to him being replaced about a month later and now the updates are getting done pretty timely. I would have marked both lower, but the company is working to take care of the problem now. Also, the warranty claim process appears pretty unresponsive. We submitted one item and never got a follow up call on it and we have heard a similar complaint from another homeowner. That said, we figured out the problem and doubt we will have other issues based on the build quality. For value, they are good houses, but I would argue that they are priced at the high end of the market. Probably about $20k overpriced but we wanted the location and the floorplan so went ahead and bought knowing the long-term payoff would be good. ... More

Buying a new home with Richmond American is by far the best decision you can make. The representatives (sales, loan, building operations, etc., were super responsive and went out of their way to make the process easy relatively simple and super-efficient. I would like to specifically praise the work of Tanner (our sales representative) and Tyler (our building supervisor) at Arborbrook. Both men were incredible in performing their jobs and were a pleasure to work with. I would also like to note the outstanding work of Erin, our loan representative. Erin was very responsive answering loan questions and ensuring that we understood all aspects of our loan. I was working with 3 new home builders for months, before I chose Richmond American in about two weeks, specifically because they were so responsive and seemed to really want to help our family purchase their dream home. I highly recommend Richmond American Homes for new home purchase. You won't be disappointed. ... More

We were looking for a new house in a neighborhood that is currently under development and has multiple builders. After making multiple trips and visited all builders in the community we decided to go with Richmond. At Richmond we found the most house for the money, build quality is fantastic, lot size, sales rep Jesus went above and beyond for us, loan department as well. We made the right choice with Richmond and we couldn't be more happy.
