Been here for only 2 years and it’s already starting to feel ghetto. HOA is almost non-present anymore. Neighbors who are a mix of owners and renters are not taking care of their lots and have weeds growing 10 ft tall. The art near the park is consistently vandalized. The speeding around the community is outrageous with people going 60+ mph past the Aurora Highlands P-8 school. We need more speed bumps around the entire community. When we first moved here it was quiet now all we hear is cars with modified exhausts flying around the streets. There are doughnut marks on the roads from cars doing burnouts. We were over promised on the quality of the community and ended up being pretty disappointed. We have already started discussing our exit plan. I will raise my score on this review if there are speed bumps implemented or strategic enforcements on speeding, specifically in front of the elementary school. There are children constantly walking along those sidewalks, and we have to cross the street with our dogs to ensure that the lawn in front of the Richmond townhomes remain in good condition with cars FLYING down the road at all hours of the day.

Purchased a home in good faith. Irrigation system was installed poorly causing a leak under driveway. Took a year plus to erode the dirt underneath to finally sink the driveway. Contacted warranty services to no surprise was told it was not something they cover. How was I supposed to know there was a leak until something was effected by it, since it was underground and not visible. This has been the story over and over again with the warranty. No we have to repair the driveway and irrigation out of pocket. Buying a new home is financially difficult, this repair will probably push us to the point where we have to sell and lose a ton of money because we're left with no other options.

Don’t expect any assistance from Richmond once you write the check! Warranty is almost none existent if you have any major problems with the property, consider your new home purchase “as is” if you invest. Poor quality of craftsmanship, warranty issues are not uncommon, once closed on the home, owner pretty much owns all the problems too!!
