Richmond American Homes Reviews

I buy a new home and all doors have some damage the tub for one of the bedrooms is cracked and they wanted to repair it instead of replace it even if I never had use that tub because is a "new hause" they onli give a window of 6 hours to arrived at my place DURIN THE MORNING while I work and CANT asked at my job for the whole day to wait for them, instead of give a window after 2pm to arrived. I just regret, I buy a new home for that reason (not to deal with this things) and it's just the same. This is so annoying.

We originally contracted for a home that didn't fit on the lot. After this fiasco, they increased the lot premium trying not to honor the lot premium under the original agreement. They call it a custom build to order home. But the reality is they restricted our choices in materials. They mandated a set of rules that essentially yielded a standard spec home at a custom price. Nothing was custom. We couldn't even pick a location for a TV outlet. Thank goodness we had a realtor that helped us when the builder wanted to break promises. The builder altered the plan decreasing our window sizes to suit their bottom line. I would never buy from Richmond again. ... More

I had an amazing experience and they where so helpful.

We had a wonderful sales rep who went above and beyond in helping us through the entire purchasing process . The walkthrough was thorough. The home is beautiful. Most miraculously—both my husband and I love everything about the home including the affordable price. We love our new home.

My sale guy was great love his attention to detail and willingness to help out they have great homes nice area minutes from local restaurants grocery store in hose school plus nice and peaceful parks the hose like every other house you will find imperfections but all minors one all in great home

The home is nice and for the most part well made. Warrenty gal Gale for inside the house is amazing. We have a drainage issue so our front and back are flooded and killing the grass. There’s also a drainage cap missing. I brought this up as soon as we moved it. I messaged our sales rep Chris D. and he pretty much blew off the issue and said there’s nothing he can do to help us. He became rude about helping us after we bought the house.

The home buying process went well for us. We did our walk through and highlighted things that needed to be fixed. They could not fix them all prior to closing so we had roll over items. It is now 3 months later and said roll over items are still not fixed even with our efforts to reach out on multiple occasions. No response ever regarding these issues.

With this gorgeous home its fit for a family raising kids. It is my first time and I didn't feel uncomfortable because everything was explained. So, I appreciate all that was involved.

Orlando was very helpful when I was looking to purchase a home. He answered all of my questions and always got answers as soon as possible. Whitney always works with Orlando and she was so kind to deal with also. I cannot say enough about both of them and the professionalism they bring to the office each day.

I have only ever lived in new build homes. The last one I was able to plan from the ground up and never had one issue with anything about that home (Atherton Homes) I moved into this new build after it had been sitting vacant for several months. I was out of state during the closing so my son-in-law did the final walk-thru. When I arrived to move in there was a laundry list of things that were not done correctly. Too many to list here but here are a couple: cabinet door not glued together so it fell apart when you went to open the cabinet. Heating vent in primary bath had been drywalled over. Paint all over the floors where they were doing touch ups. Sloppy work. Cracked door trim. Chunk out of door trim just painted over. Running paint on front door. Misaligned slider and unable to be fixed unless it was completely removed. Left us spare flooring but box had been dropped so only one piece was available for use to repair a chunk missing out of the floor in great room. We are extremely frustrated with the quality of the preparation of the home for occupancy. It has resulted with a total of 7 to 8 vendors having to come in to make repairs while we were living in the home. Things that should’ve been taken care of by whoever was overseeing the building of this home. And then corrected prior to us moving in if they weren’t caught during the build process. Vendors who came to make repairs commented on the less than quality products used in these homes. Maybe you’re trying to cut costs or just don’t care about the quality of your homes. But your reputation with the people you have now coming in to make the repairs is less than stellar. One vendor told me he had just worked on a house down the street that had three different brands of windows in the home like it has just been pieced together with whatever was available. When we moved in, we felt like we had gotten a lemon. And when I asked for paint touchup and repairs to be made, I was told that the builder had generously offered to allow someone to come in for two hours to make all the repairs, but then I would be waving my rights to be able to make any claims within my first year living here if there were nail pops, or other things that occurred. I was not willing to waive that due to all the things we had already found. So I asked for some touchup paint so I could fix things until I was able to make claims to have repairs done. And then the person you have overseeing the houses now was afraid to even ring our doorbell and hand that paint to us. He just set it out in front of the house and didn’t even let us know. It was just sitting out there. I don’t think I would be able to recommend Richmond American homes to anyone that I know. I complained to the girls in the sales office about our experience. I complained to my realtor who sold me the house. But I am making it my own now. We are fixing it up making the repairs we need to make and due to my age I’m not sure that I want to move again, but it is a possibility. Signed very disappointed homeowner ... More

We had a fantastic experience with Richmond American Homes at TrailMark! From start to finish, the entire process exceeded our expectations. PJ, our sales consultant, was genuine, pleasant, and truly eager to help. He was never pushy or high-pressure—just the opposite of the stereotypical salesperson. He really listened to us and worked closely with us to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. It made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Josh was quick-witted, responsive, and completely on top of everything. With only a week until closing, I honestly doubted the entire punch list would be completed—but he promised it would be handled, and he delivered. Everything was done, just as he said. Both Josh and PJ were wonderful about responding to my texts quickly, always with kindness, humor, and clear answers or solutions. Their communication and follow-through were outstanding. I highly recommend Richmond American Homes—and especially PJ and Josh—if you’re considering building or buying. An excellent team and a great experience all around! ... More

During our first visit to the sales office, we were greeted by Brooks and Michelle. Both were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and available during AND after the sale. We really appreciated all of the communication and follow-ups. They really made our home purchasing experience a breeze! Then, a week before closing, we had our walkthrough with superintendent Jesse. It was a very detailed walkthrough, a lot more than I had expected. He pointed out things that I never would've thought of. That was very much appreciated! During the next few days, he had all those little things squared away. At our 30 day walkthrough, Jesse was extremely quick and helpful at reaching out to the various contractors to address the items needing attention. The whole team was phenomenal from start to finish, and beyond! Communication and follow through during the whole process was/is so helpful and appreciated. We can't thank Brooks, Michelle, and Jesse enough! ... More

So far any issues has gotten immediate attention or a timely time frame to address the issue

Thank you to Hattie and Lori for your professionalism, kindness, and patience from day one through closing. We truly appreciated all the helpful information and contacts you provided to help us set up our new home. Thank you, Jeff, for promptly addressing all of our requests during the walkthrough before move-in. Thank you to Sherie and Genya for following up after the 30-day closing and for your quick response in sending the maintenance team to fix our back sliding door. A special thank you to Eli Tusay and Parr Windows for the professional, caring, and efficient work on the sliding door. And finally, thank you to Richmond American Homes. We are extremely happy with our new home! ... More

The whole team was amazing from start to finish. The project superintendent has been great always on top of any issues and getting them handled.

My home buying experience with Richmond homes was amazing from the first time that I met Chuck, he took the time to help me find the house that I was looking for an even helped me make a few changes along the way. Me being retired military, and coming back home to Maryland was so exciting and overwhelming at the same time to buy a new build home. I was kept up-to-date as the process was going through and even receive photos. I had the opportunity to have a pre-walk-through with Dave, and then a final walk-through with him just to make sure everything looked the way I expected it and explain all the things in the home. ...

Spending time for first walk-through and make sure all issues taking care of without any exceptions. Otherwise you will be spending lot of time after escrow closed

If you have rollover items and repairs that need to be made before closing, don’t sign until they are completed. I was promised they would be fixed and we are well over a month out from closing, my issues are still unresolved. Warranty claims disappear into thin air as well.

Excellent service and quality. Very satisfied.

My process of purchasing a new home was made easy by the professional teams at every level. From early November finding my new home to settlement in early December, everyone was very helpful at each phase. I would recommend this team to all my friends looking for a new home.

The only wrinkle in an otherwise smooth end-to-end buying process was - in my view - the extreme amount of documentation required by the preferred mortgage lender. I joked with my friends that at times it felt like I was going to need to provide them stool, urine, and blood samples! Even so, I would highly recommend RAH to prospective homebuyers - my home is virtually perfect for me!

My wife and I were looking for some remodeling ideas for our house and decided to visit the Settler’s Crossing community. Audra was incredible! She allowed use to browse the house long enough for my wife to fall in love with it, then answered every one of my million questions. We were eager to make an offer but couldn’t until they were done using it as a sales office. Both Audra and Brandon were very patient with our nearly daily visits and excellent in communicating the status of when we could submit our offer. When the time came, our offer was accepted and we are very pleased with our New Home. ... More

I had a fantastic experience in purchasing my new home. I am very excited about the fast developing Erie community and know my new Cityscape home will be a great investment for my family.

I would have given 5 stars for overall experience but Richmond American Homes’ mortgage company was a nightmare to do business with. The house and Richmond’s attentiveness to issues is excellent

It's good experience with Richmond American Home as the Design lay-out suitable to modern home. I understand the material related with cost saving that's added to the value, But the workmanship is lag of attention to the detail. I trust Richomand American Homes builder, and would suggest the after sale also needed some attention.
