The Lakes at Rancho El Dorado

MARICOPA, AZ

The Lakes at Rancho El Dorado is an established and appealing master planned residential community located in Maricopa, AZ just south of Phoenix. In 2008, Harvard Investments and Meritage Homes acquired the community’s remaining 2,000± lots, with Meritage receiving approximately 400 finished lots and Harvard Investments receiving approximately 1,600 undeveloped lots.

This community’s prime Maricopa location provides proximity to I-10, great schools, and the award-winning Copper Sky Recreational Complex. It also sits near Arizona Top 10 golf courses and touts the reputation for being one of the safest cities in the state. Maricopa offers residents small town charm with plenty of nearby hiking, biking, and camping access.

In 2019, Harvard Investments announced the next stage development with new builder partners, lakeside and interior homesites, and park amenities. After making horizontal improvements to 728 lots, Harvard Investments sold new parcel sales to Meritage, Richmond American, Gehan, and DR Horton. These builders provided home buyers unique opportunities with waterfront and interior lots, multiple floor plans, and attached RV garage options. In late 2021, Harvard Investments announced the sale of its final two neighborhoods to Richmond American Homes. Richmond American acquired 237 homesites, adding to their four neighborhoods. Harvard Investments sold over 1,600 home sites in just over two years.
