K. Hovnanian® Homes Reviews in Baltimore, MD

Home buying was simple and easy, and the price paid was valid for market price. The construction crew was great with performing touch ups, and bringing the painting crew back after move in. Salesman was good, and helpful. Mortgage company was terrible. They have 5 people doing almost the same job, and they would constantly call asking for the same information with no communication between each other. title company was great.

We love our house. Very comfortable and spacious. Tyler was very friendly, professional and informative.

The sales team was outstanding to work with. If you use them as a lender, sometimes their are issues with communication with loan officers during the different stages of the loan process especially during the end of the company fiscal year (October). Overall, good experience.

House is great, but was not ready to move in yet. Everything from the quality inspection needed to be fixed still (touch up paint, shoe molding install, cabinet defects, door jambs not functional, final cleaning, counter top deficiency, air filter vents needed to be cut in). KHov has been great to work with us through the issues though, just slow. Now over two months into the home we are still scheduling fixes.

Experience was fairly positive throughout the Home buying process.

If it wasn’t for the new construction manager James this would be a 1-2 star rating for all. James has gone above and beyond to make this process smooth. When we moved in multiple things were done wrong and the workmen ship was below par. There were things forgotten that we paid for. But James has been extremely understanding responsive and reactive to the situation. James should be highly appreciated in the company and be compensated for his hard work. He understands customer service and drive for getting the job done correctly.

Very nice upgrades considering that it was a model. That is what attracted us to the home. Being a model was mostly great except that the touch up paint areas were terrible. We have areas on every floor where you can see the touch up areas. It doesn’t match so we will probably have to repaint the entire interior. Also we have some cold spots in the home like the interior door area, it is like an icebox down there. Our microwave is like a freezer. The vent doesn’t seem to be closed so cold air comes in.

There was a lack of professionalism when dealing with closing and because of this I would not recommend khov.

Quality assurance for the home during the construction process is overlooked, all the emphasis is on delivering the home as soon as possible.

Needs to finish with quality .. hurried work on the house affected and added sour taste to my experience

The drywall finishing and tile installation is very disappointing and after one month, neither have been resolved.

Sales rep was fantastic. Job foreman was very knowledgeable overall. Dealing with Kham in Florida was both exasperating and exhausting. We are retired with more than enough funds available, however, the loan representative often did not return our calls. Up until the day before settlement we were still asked to send more documentation. After living in our new home for a month we are seeing alot of finished work on walls and trim wasn't the quality of work we expected for the amount of money we paid for our home. We would not recommend Khov homes.

Very little flexibility and most upgrades are pre-determined and included in the house, which you have to purchase.

I was little shocked that there was no independent QA (Qaulity Assurance) process for the finishing work of the build. There were many small details poorly finished (dry-wall spakle sanded poorly), not painted properly (could see through the paint) and some damaged materials that were not replaced. The builder is not very responsive to issues after closing.

The model home isn’t what you will get if you get what the model have for your home. We bought pretty much what the model home had and sure enough there are little things they didn’t add because it was just part of the model only. Something simple such as the cabinet crown molding off the kitchen (drop zone area) isn’t part of the price paid for- plus we upgraded the cabinets! There reply was the designers added that. Same goes with the master bath room walk in shower with the seat. The model home had the glass where the seating area in the shower. But when they build our bathroom- it’s not part of it- it’s part of the design for the model home. Really? It’s a misleading. The window added in the basement wasn’t included but it was an oops so they left the window there on the model but not for the new build homes. For our walk through I found blue tape and I asked about them. Reply back saying oh those are the stuff that needs to be looked at again and will fix. Well, when we moved into the house- I found at least 4 tapes that was still there which wasn’t taken care of. Yes we did a walk thru but these blue tapes were behind something that we wouldn’t be able to see unless open. One of them, it was so sharp I got cut on. It was a nail sticking out under the pantry from putting the cabinets together my husband said. The agent isn’t knowledgeable about what or how the house was going to sit until we meet up with the person building the home- this is when we already put a deposit down. The builder told us how our house was going to sit on the property we selected after went through the designer studio to pick out all our stuff for the house. We were unhappy and argue about this and nothing was done. Even with that agent told us a few things that would be included but end up having to pay more during the design studio. It’s upsetting to know when we walked in and asked the questions to know for sure what we will have to pay end up to be more than what being told. Overall experience with the agent would be one star and the building overall would be 4 stars because of how we end up meeting the builder after the designing studio was to late to change our lot at that time. Plus our deposit was already handed to them. Since this is a quick turn over few months to build. It’s not so great since the dry wall and the frame of walls are uneven. My husband put crown molding and added the blind for the room. It’s so uneven and large gaps. The blind is slanted and the blinds are put up correctly- the window was not properly level off. The walls were uneven but in waves. This is sad- what else we will find as we paint and add to put more value for the house. Overall experience with khov homes would be 2 out of 5 stars. ... More

The homes are beautiful but there is not a great attention to detail. I don’t think buying a home should feel like is you v them but that was the overall feeling I had. Very limited knowledge of the builders contract on the sales side and sloppy craftsmanship inside. It feels as if there is very limited quality control on both ends.

Salesman was horrible. Lied to us about many things and failed to offer us any options including lights. For the price we paid we expected a lot more out of the house. We moved in and the house has many flaws that still need to be fixed. The carelessness in building the house could have been dealt with if they took the time when building the house. We were told they focus on 3 houses at a time but that wasn't true.

I wish the name would match the quality or even the customer service provided for the warranty/ defective work.

The amount of hardship and struggle we have experienced can't be expressed.
