K. Hovnanian® Homes Reviews in Cleveland, OH

Waiting on my missing roof shinges to be put up. Interior issues also and no shower door.

The whole process was stressful but it is over now.

Very nice and always let you know the progress of your homes

Which builder paid more attention to co. that poured foundation,which resulted in a back wall in our home be off.It left floor joist and floor un level and a unhappy buyer.,when it came to repairs after accepting the house ,Adam was johnny on the spot,with repairs.

All the project managers working my development did a very good job responding to questions and concerns. Didn’t have one problem at all

I've had no issues with any of the people that ive worked with. My only issue is why would you let so many families move into a house that doesnt have a useful backyard for months at a time with no end in site. I have a dog, I would of like to have brought more plants and flowers from my previous home etc

Product is good for the price, staff is helpful, great design

Very efficient home-building process. KHOV knows what they're doing!

Everyone I worked with was responsive and followed up in a timely manner.

Builder Profits by offering lowest acceptable material and quality and cuts corners wherever possible. The lack of options for better quality paint and material is disappointing.

The purchasing process was a breeze, after that; not so much

There were items that I would have liked to have included and they refused. In this northern area, I would have preferred to have the garage insulated and the hvac included. It makes for a very cold environment in the winter and hot in the summer.

We got a bunch of issues that we have brought up to our contractor. So far we have been told that we should report them all before end of year. We got exposed electrical wires in are garage. The general contractor was switched out on us. Issues with so called premium lot.

For the most part was a good experience. Lisa was amazing and super kind she helped us design out perfect home and answer any questions and if she didn’t know the answer she found out. Ryan was also amazing and kept us updated weekly. We was sad when Ryan moved. Only complaint I have is when we moved in furnace wasn’t working and we let the builder know over and over told called the company to come fix it. I assume it was the hvac company slip up but regardless got to the point where I got it fixed. Also on of our plugs by the stove keeps tripping which isn’t safe and should been checked before since we wouldn’t of known during walk through. So have to go through home warranty on the issue we will se how that goes and don’t have to much hope on the 11 month Inspection but I hope I’m proved wrong! ... More

The team overall was very helpful throughout the home buying process. Brandon Rolko was very upfront & down to earth while advising us and Bob & Kayla did a stellar job communicating throughout the build process and addressing concerns. There were some minor issues such as door framing that did not get fully resolved but overall we were very happy. Wish we would have known more about options communicated upfront, but we came in with an initially lower budget than we settled on. It was not clear to us that we had design room visit ability which would have been nice. The home build was much faster than expected and we had a good experience getting graded. We were lucky to settle on a home of our price in the current market, but did find it a bit expensive. Great team overall, could have used a bit more cross communication but was glad to be involved in the process with them all! ... More

I first want to say that our sales person Melissa is absolutely amazing and an asset to your company. When we had trouble reaching our construction managers, she was able to get them to respond. Up until the point that we got our keys, it was an amazing work relationship. Once we received the keys, things did not go so smooth. The communication was not very good. When we had problems, Melissa would be our go to, but it shouldn't be that way. Of the construction managers, Jeremy was the best with communication. All I need is a text, email, or phone call that says they are working on this or that. Don't get me wrong, we are very happy with the house. We have found ourselves doing a lot of work outside at the end we didn't expect. Yes, we have the keys, we own our home, but due to the poor communication we have more to do. It would be my suggestion that people not accept the house until all work is completed. Again, overall, we are happy with the construction of our house! It is well built. I went nearly every day to watch the progress. They appear to have followed the code and did a good job with construction. Melissa is an amazing person and we are happy we were able to work with her. Thank you for this opportunity to review the process. ... More

We're very happy with our home however there are some issues that shouldn't exist in a brand new house... some of the painting was never finished. the garage it was rough patched and never finished it should be finish patched and atleast ready for paint. They told us 2 weeks ago the front porch would be finish and were still waiting on that. The final grade isn't done and we have standing water on the back and sides of our foundation. All of these issues should have been addressed immediately for the amount of money spent on a new construction home. When we Raise concern over the issues it is as if it is no big deal but it is a big deal and we are beginning to be come frustrated hope someone takes care of these things immediately ... More

I believe you need to walk your home 1-2 times per week to check options selected, quality and workmanship. You need to notify your builder weekly on what concerns you have and follow up weekly that they are addressed. If this happens you will get a home that looks good!

Builder not very flexible with ideas outside of their cookie-cutter plans.

Look into the contracts very well.

Overall, a good experience… we were not a fan of the transition from production to warranty… we found several small issues that our construction managers could’ve handled quickly and easily after moving into the home but they more or less turned their backs on us and insisted we contact the warranty department… we understood they needed to press on with the continued development of our neighborhood, but little things like that go a long way for customer satisfaction and will play a part in any future home buying needs, along with recommending this builder to family and friends…

Everyone we interacted with was great. I am however not 100% satisfied with the quality of the work in certain areas such as the floors, garage foundation and others. However, the warranty department has not come to my home to review and hopefully fix these issues. For now, my rating right now is what it is but will hopefully improve based on my experience with the warranty department.

Better than Ryan homes

All the the people that represent KHov were great to deal with from our sales person Leah, to Kelli in the design center through Steve and Jacob our construction managers. Updates were provided as promised and easily understood. Steve was awesome to deal with! Rough carpentry was actually a little better than we expected but we do have some concerns based upon what friends and neighbors told us of problems they experienced a year or two down the road. Time will tell what if any issues we experience. Finish carpentry was nothing spectacular and we feel could have been done better. Paint job was ok but what we didn’t understand was when they said the walls get 2 coats of paint we didn’t realize the 1st coat was actually what they considered the primer coat. Warranty has been very responsive to the few issues we have had to date and easy to deal with. The steps leading up to the gold key orientation and closing were very disappointing in the presentation of how the house was cleaned and prepared. We were not happy with the cleaning and the cleaning contractors that were used were not good. Anyone purchasing a house should be prepared to spend a good day or 2 cleaning. There was no sparkle! We love the house but for what a family pays for one of these homes the new owners should expect and receive a home that shines from bottom to top. ... More
