From beginning to end, everyone was so friendly and helpful and made the process so smooth and not stressful. But my favorite part is just the overall quality of the home itself. Great job Richmond!

Beginning process was great. Definitely hoping the rest gets better.

Sara Jensen did an excellent job from start to finish. But after receiving the keys we ran into some issues and the wait time to resolve them was unfortunate. We still have them and hopefully soon can get them resolved. Other than that we love the area and overall style. Plus the overall feel and look to the home is great. Thanks again Sara for making the experience memorable.

The process was fairly smooth. My realtor rep helped me through the process and answered all the questions that I had. It was real quick and organized. I like how they have the home buying structure so that you can keep up with all the paperwork that you have to sign and send.

Wise Decision to Buy a Richmond Home

We are very pleased with our new home and how fast the Care Team at Richmond responded to some issues we had. Special thanks to Dustin, the Superintendent, who was super helpful and knowledgeable about the electrical problem we had. He fixed it in no time. Thank you Dustin!! We highly recommend Richmond to our friends and family. We just wished there were NO ASSOCIATIONS to deal with, other than that, we feel we made a very good decision to buy our home with Richmond.

The overall buying experience was great. Some minor issues with communication but that was fixed. The one thing bothering me now is I have submitted a work order of the things not fixed from the final walk through and now 30+ days. I still have not heard from anyone to come and fix these issues. My dishwasher currently does not work and has not worked since day 1.

Slow Start, Mediocre Finish

  • Howard H.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • May 01, 2024
  • Kissimmee, FL

When I was placed on contract for my home, the building process moved very slowly. After some adjustments, things seemed to get back on track. However, I am not pleased with the limited customization, such as adding additional speakers, a swimming pool, a fence, etc., to the mortgage. During inspections and closing, the enthusiasm to make the necessary fixes was apparent, but some things did not get done. I'm still waiting for my driveway to be cleaned because my final walk-thru was on a rainy day.

Extremely Poor Workmanship

I work in the remodel/rehab and new residential and commercial construction industries. The home I purchased fails to meet basic, minimum industry standards. Poor finish work. Five weeks since close and still not moved in because repairs not complete. Unskilled labor executing tasks requiring high-level, specific skills (skip trowel texture). New windows won’t open and told that’s how they are. False. Threshold improperly installed and told that’s how it is. False. Four property walks later and only the drywall and texture issues addressed, but these repairs were inadequate to the point the ...

North Vista Highlands Home

The buying process was very easy and understandable for a first time home buyer as Richmond provided very good education. The 2 story house was built well and only had to have minor things done after the move in. Such as roof shingles needing to be replaced and window screens missing but all was fixed or put in by Richmond. We are very happy with the house so far.

Feel tricked

  • Tooele, UT

We moved into a corner lot with a water tank behind us, the entire water tank is surrounded by a rock wall and in several other residents backyards but ours. When trying to get answers as to why we did not get a rock wall fence as well no had any answers. The city decided to put up an ugly barb wire prison fence directly in our backyard. When trying to get answers on who the developers were to discuss other options NO ONE KNEW. No one seemed to know anything! There’s no reason we would have thought anything but that rock wall would have just continued over for us like it did for EVERYONE ...

This is my second home. The sales Departmrnt was not honest, and The lending process was the worst experience. . Richmond lenders was not helpful, constantly being condescending and making you feel like you should just give up. Questioning income, questioning why I didn't know certain things. An overall stressful experience that I hope no one else has to endure.

Not a great experience

  • George C.

It started from the beginning where the sales rep wasn't sure about how to input our info. We ended up having to do these forms about correct names due to her not entering our driver's license correctly and it went down hill from there. The superintendent got fired and there were a lot of things wrong with the build and still are until the warranty person comes. Guest bathroom is a mess and most of the products used were cheaply made. Overall experience was poor.

Decided to buy a ready to move in house that wasn’t ready; Sales rep quit halfway into the buying process; The maker’s lender was extremely incompetent and did not communicate much of anything to me; had to resubmit multiple documents multiple times; lending agent stopped communicating the last few weeks before my expected close date; new lending agent was clueless about the process and had me resubmit documents that were already on file; everything was disorganized and hectic and the process was extremely frustrating…when we moved in, the home had numerous issues to deal with that took ...
