Richmond American Homes Reviews in Phoenix Mesa, AZ

Paul and Yudy we’re awesome!!! They made sure you keep my process nice and smooth!

Overall pleased with the sale and closing experience.

Overall, we’re happy with our new home—it has great features, and we’ve settled in nicely. However, for a home priced just shy of half a million dollars, there were a few design choices that left us disappointed. For example, the house has a clear color theme, yet chrome accents were used in the bathrooms, while the rest of the hardware and the kitchen faucet are matte black. This inconsistency makes the chrome look cheap in comparison. Also, while the kitchen drawers are soft close, the cabinets are not, which doesn’t make sense in a home at this price point. On a positive note, the staff we worked with were fantastic—very helpful and professional throughout the process. While we love the home, we think more attention to detail in design and craftsmanship would have made the experience even better. ... More

With any home your going to run in to issues I have had some issues come up that the Richmond team took care of promptly and with a sense of urgency. I have only had my home for a few months now but everything seems to be going smooth.

We had a very positive experience while buying this new home. We moved from another city so it was a bit more challenging. Everything went as planned and in a good time line. The only issues we've had so far are workmanship of items in the home, inop window, lazy touch ups in places and not in others. As far as the value...it's ok. My sister bought a new build with another builder and got so much more for her money. We almost have the exact same lay out too. I feel for half a million dollars a 2,000 sq foot home should come with more upgrades and a few extras. I've purchased a few new builds an preowned homes in my life and that is just my opinion. ...

I can rate RAH 5 stars

Richmond American Homes provide a combination of Great Floorplans, Price Point Value and Overall Buying Experience at the Entry Level - Mid Level Housing Arena !!

The experience with the sales person Zack was great and with all others during the purchase process! Now that we are in not so good sent work order for things that needed to be fixed and have not been contacted yet! We need some major things fixed like a pipe in our roof that just goes into the attic but connected to nothing. I can see light around my front door, garage door into house does not latch properly as other doors have same issue. We have a trusses in the attic that is cracked etc. sure would like these things fixed. Also if you want an independent inspection done make sure you set it up with plenty of time at least 3 to 4 weeks so they can do all their checks on the inspector. I hope to get all problems fixed soon. ... More

Overall a very easy process getting in the door. After close though, we have reached out a couple times trying to get rollover items and inspection issues addressed with no response. To be fair we have only tried communicating directly and have not gone through warranty. The issues are also minor, primarily being paint touch ups.

Great financing and shopping experience. Warranty is slacking on coming out and getting in contact with me. Submitted a water damage request over two weeks ago and have yet to hear back.

The sales dept was fabulous. Tanner did a fabulous job. The mortgage qualification was horrendous. Major overhaul needed only to find out mtg was sold before I made one payment. Had a keak behind master sink over 30 days ago. Today the counter top and medicine cabinet sit in my bedroom on the floor. Paul tried to schedule the carpet to be replaced before the counter top and medicine cabinet was reinstalled. Have not heard from him in 10 days and I won’t let carpet be installed until these are done. Who wants brand new carpet trampled on by plumbers, cabinet people. Very poor communication when there is an emergency. It’s almost like you don’t care about your customers once the ink is dry. Need much better communication ... More

Overall, I like the people I have dealt with while purchasing my home. I'm not super happy with the workmanship of the home or how slow it is to get the issues addressed. I've been in the house for a month and I still don't have my garage floor problem fixed OR at least had any correspondence from the builder on when it'll be fixed. The said that the problem is out of spec and should be fixed but haven't done anything, to my knowledge, to fix it.

Buying home was amazing, getting the items that where on the 30 day list to be fixed seems impossible, I am now thinking that they will not be done unless, I call everyday, which of course I do not have the time! Very disappointing!

So many errors in the home. So little communication when issues were brought up. We are over a month into our new build and the amount of issues are out of control. What is even worse is that we cannot get anyone to fix anything. I have been without a dishwasher the entire time. Items from the carry over list have not been attended to.

Probably the worst experience dealing with them to call back or follow up on items that need repairing. Would never buy a house from them. I moved in 3 months ago never got my repairs done from the first initial walk through. They said they where going to do a 30 follow I called them after 2 1/2 months. They came out and looked at the items from the first walk through and crickets again. Still waiting sucks when you spend 1/2 of million on a house and customer service sucks.

From start to finish and beyond Brian made sure all of my questions were answered. Logan had been very responsive to the few issues we’ve had.

Char is very knowledgeable about the process and all my questions and concerns were addressed promptly. I have never felt this happy and comfortable in a home. I love my new home.

nice house, great upgraded appliances, decent grade paint on the walls (unlike a lot of new build).Massive 3-car garage and large laundry room. wish house was prewired for audio (good that all rooms have ethernet hookups). Need more/upgraded sockets in kitchen and garage.

I did not like the build process with spec home building. After much thoughts and trials with the new build we were advised that the model home was available so we decided to purchase the pewter model home and could not be happier, even though it cost more than we were willing to pay but in the end we were greatful that we had the money for the model home. Thank you for this great home.

From start to finish, our first homebuying experience was fantastic. Our sales associate Janna was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right home for our needs. She patiently answered all of our questions and made us feel confident every step of the way. When we outlined specific must haves in our home including a large center sliding door into the backyard and tile flooring with a specific color scheme Janna found the perfect lot that matched. The quality of workmanship in our new home was solid and we felt that Richmond American stood by their product and our community superintendent Travis kept the tradesmen honest. From the flooring to the finishes, the home reflected a high standard of craftsmanship. It’s clear that this builder takes pride in delivering homes that meet modern day expectations and include features that are unique and timeless. One of the things we appreciated most was the transparency throughout the process. We opted to use the builder's in house mortgage company, HomeAmerican Mortgage, and our Loan Officer Lisa kept us informed about timelines, costs, and next steps. Our Loan Processor Judy was quick to answer our questions and helped to ensure that the process went as efficiently as possible keeping everything on track for a timely closing. Overall, we are happy with our first home purchase and the team that helped us get here. We have recommended Richmond American to our family and friends and to anyone looking to buy a new home with confidence and peace of mind. ... More

We are pleased with our Richmond home. Kelly from sales was amazing all the way. Excellent follow through with our needs. Jennifer explained the loan and kept us updated. Some challenges but we pulled through with her help. Only drawback which we knew is we could not make any changes to the upgrades or plan as it was pre-set already. Overall, we are still happy and blessed with our new home.

The builder kept us informed about the progress of the project.

Again I MUST point out Albert how did our walk through and assisted us in getting moved in. Albert is a true professional and an asset to the company. The only negative I have is with the mortgage insurance company. They had NO idea what they were doing. I had to make repeated phone calls to them to get the policy straightened. I would recommend your company find a more professional insurance company.

My superintendent is very professional and knowledgeable.

The home buying process was easy, and our sales person, Dale, was responsive and answered all of our questions. Janelle with the mortgage side of it was great! She was very responsive and patient with us as we worked through the process. We appreciated that. Our home tour was very thorough. Richard and Jared were very informative and have been great with follow up. We really like our 8 foot doors throughout our home, including the garage door. We especially love our paver brick driveway and patio. It adds a beautiful touch to the front of our home. The only negative would be that the cleaning of the home prior to move-in did not meet our expectations. We had to clean some things when we moved in….white grout residue on kitchen tile backsplash and tile in master bath shower. The floor tiles had some smeared grout and paint specks in some areas. Overall, we are very happy with our new home and would recommend Richmond American to our family and friends. ... More
