Richmond American Homes Reviews

Desde el día uno que nos mudamos se nos va la corriente en la cocina se nos dañó todo lo d esa nevera hicimos el reporte y hasta hoy 12/31/2023 no han solucionado el problema sin decir que el piso tiene detalles la alfonbra de la escalera tiene pintura en los bordes las manillas absolutamente todas las tocaba y te quedaban en las manos allí la reglamos como pudimos ya que eso no puede esperar y lo podíamos hacer lo d de la electricidad se escapa de nuestras manos para resolverlo. Y la grama no la colocaron la tiraron por ende no está lisa está con muros ósea montaña pequeña y no hablar que cuesta que las pocetas o inodoros descarguen de forma eficiente realmente quería una casa pero no pensé que podía tener tantos problemas siendo nueva y lo peor es que no te ayudan a resolverlo el problema de electricidad es grave y aún así no han podido solucionar ...

Overall, it's a nice home. Closing process felt rushed. We felt like we were just a house on the assembly line that they wanted to move on from. Lots of little issues. Nothing major was wrong. Getting the little issues takes time to resolve. It's good that we have a year to do it.

After closing warranty issue have been a problem we were informed two weeks they would walk through after move in and never happened I had to call to get that done 3 weeks after move in and still not one single warranty issue has been fixed so we are going on over a month after move in super frustrating and think it wouldn’t be that hard to get thing done with small issues!!

The salesman and construction super were great. But the subcontractors who actually did the work are sloppy and don’t have very much regard for the mess they leave for the new owners. There was paint spatter throughout the house, exposed holes in the wall and ceiling, appliance not installed correctly, sink fixture not installed correctly, and the backyard littered with construction debris (nails, broken roof tiles, paint dumped on the ground), and plenty of cigarette butts. Most of this will be corrected, but the backyard is the homeowner responsibility. It will be a beautiful home, but only after the homeowner identifies the shoddy work of the subcontractors. ... More

The people they hire to build your house do a terrible job, workmanship is horrible. Their models are built to detail and beautiful! Don’t expect your home will be built that way. Everything they give you has some sort of damage, from doors, door frames, floor molding, kitchen sinks, marble countertops, appliances,etc. Sprinklers they put in your yard are not properly done and they basically sit on top of your lawn. My advice run as fast as you can. Cause you’re going to have to spend thousands of dollars fixing stuff.

We had a good experience with Richmond American and the house we were provided with we like a great deal; we believe it meets our needs and expectations for the most part. Their customer service is impeccable, and all follow up and questions are addressed promptly. Yet, there are improvement areas in terms of attention to detail in the workmanship as well as the follow up of rollover items pre and post move-in that need to be addressed to make the experience great and completely satisfactory.

The overall financial part of buying was good. We put 5% down to start construction and did not need to pay anything more until closing, the time it took to complete the build ended up at what was originally scheduled. I feel the value of the house and land is good for the price paid. The quality of workmanship is very poor from the things I can see with my eyes. The drywall finishing is very substandard along with the interior/exterior painting. I had the idea that when you take possession of a newly built house it would be like a new car, everything sparkly, clean, nothing to do but enjoy it. Not the case with our house, although things have slowly been taken care of that were on the builders ‘To Do List’, we still have paining to be done, a dented dishwasher, missing door strike plates. ...

My experience was very bad from the beginning. The seller deceived me into signing a contract and giving my deposit by offering things I did not received. When I brought it up to a management absolutely nothing was done. I moved into a home I am not happy with. I will give them a zero if I could, the whole process was very bad.

I'll start by saying this was the worst 1st time home buying experience for me and my wife. I feel completely misled from the get go when looking at the model home. I was told my home would look exactly like the model, when come to find out this was completely untrue. There were upgrades in the model home that cost additional and weren't mentioned to us until after we left a deposit. When we found out we weren't getting certain features we tried to back out and get our deposit back, the sales lady gladly mentioned if you back out, we keep your 11,000 deposit. Now would you feel trapped, who walks away from that kind of money? I almost did because the house we were stuck with did not look like the model home, no fireplace, only certain railing up the stairs and not all of it, a huge water heater UPSTAIRS in our laundry room which reduced the size of our master closet nothing like the size of the closet in the model home. I observed the house being built because there was no security onsite and I could literally walk in the house after hours any night of the week. They went through three super intendants so my house was built completely unsupervised which explains the low quality work in some areas. Because of lack of supervision, our closing date continued to get pushed out because delays with materials and deliveries affecting us the new home buyer. Items were broken as they were installed and repaired instead of replaced. Wait, I thought I was buying a NEW home not repaired.When escalating this up to the V P level, he took my call but was prepping for a fishing trip and didn't pay attention to my concerns. Monty mentioned he would return my call and never did and never answered my call after that, what kind of customer service is that, but you're quick to tell me I'm locked in a deal that I was misled into. If I could afford an attorney, I would have reported this company and tried to sue as I was bullied around and forced into buying a home I DID NOT WANT TO BUY! Does that sound like a good experience to you? Sincerely, an unhappy 1st home buyer with Richmond American. This probably won't be posted anyways. ... More

To many things that are need to be repaired and incomplete. Model design is good but builders are need to improve the quality.

Easy peasy experience, very beautiful home, excellent customer service, professional

Make sure Josh is your construction manager, he will take care of you and make sure your home is built correctly.

Best customer service and home absolutely wonderful !!!

Linda was amazing throughout our process. We could have used more time of a second visit at the design studio as we felt rushed through that process. Over all things were great on the site. The walkthroughs were great, the only thing I would change is maybe more of them. Since the house took some time to complete this would have just kept us a bit more in the loop. After being in a month things look great. We have addressed a few issues with the month follow-up and will see how they are taken care of. It has been a great experience for us and would recommend.

Our sales rep Martha was great. She was responsive and very helpful.

Make sure you have contacts available for addressing challenges and issues.

Sales representative and Mortgage lender were excellent to deal with. House was already built. Cheap cabinetry, cheap appliances.

Nothing bad to say about the experience

I wanted to wait to write this review, after being in the home for a liitle. Overall experience was good, Erik in the office was great no issues, always took our calls and our questions. Our biggest problem is all of the finish work that was completed or not really completed. Alot of stuff was just touched up quickly so that they could close the house. Our baseboards/trim and walls are probably the worst; uneven and rushed. We still have people coming back to fix things; it just takes so long even though we've paid and we are in our home. It's really just an inconvenience to us as the buyer, we can't decorate due to walls needing to be re painted. We can't fill our cabinets since those need to be fixed as well. They forgot our soft closed cabinets and doing the extra finish on them at the end so they are mot so dull. Plus, they almost forgot our covered balcony that they ended up having to take off the roof that they had started and redo it which is probably why things were rushed since they were 2 to 3 weeks behind. Our problem is, is where is the quality control? We understand that people are not perfect. But, for a new home priced over 500k. You would think there would be some more consideration with the details and finishes. We're still finding things and it's just makes us feel like we come last. It's just about getting the money instead of making a great house. ... More

Fit and finish of completed homes should match the model homes but builder is too rushed to complete houses resulting in less than ideal quality. Sales team and building superintendent are knowledgable and very easy to work / communicate with.

I continued to receive conflicting information depending on who I spoke with. I’m happy with the home itself, but the overall process was frustrating.

Your in home landor is useless. Please change it. Because of them I am giving bed rating for Richmond.

We had an extremely smooth process from day one up until/beyond our move in date. Very happy!

Lori and Jake are awesome! They were both very helpful and made our experience in buying our new home an easy process. They are a team to keep. We are grateful for all their help.

I want to Thank my highest appreciation to Jim and Mike. Their professionalism and friendliness is the highest as my all life experience. I am so much happy in my home, I bought it with a great value, it was a great investment for my family. We walked and try to shop others but at the end we understand Richmond American homes value for the price is the highest..
