The floor plans are nice but our development didn't come with gutters or exterior house lights. Our street is very dark at night and lot of time and money will have to be put into our home after closing.

Overall it was ok, a few things were a bit disappointing. For instance the shower glass install was shotty. Didn't complain since I will behaving the bathroom remodeled. The people that work for the company are the high point of the experience. John and April.

I have some bad experience like; 1. Squeak sound in the master bedroom floor. I brought the builders attention to this, i was told they cannot fix it at this time. This was quite upsetting.

KHOV does not allow buyer to conduct professional inspection before closing.

KHOV does not allow future owner conduct professional inspection before closing. A red flag .They promise you one year warranty after the purchase; however, half of the issue they push it back as cosmetic. I hired a professional inspector after the closing, 55 pages report with pictures of findings. Some of those , according to the certified inspector, in violation of code . Some of the contractors do not respond for months.

Broken promises

  • Victoria F.

The home did not come with what we were sold by our sales person. We were told that we were going to get a gas line into the back yard, pre wiring for cameras, pre wiring for alarm, drop station, cabinets above my refrigerator. These are all items that we were sold that the home wasn’t built with. I have had a plumbing issue since the day I moved in with my second bathroom, the toilet does not flush right. The first time someone showed up he said he didn’t have the correct tools and left, the second time someone showed up un announced while I was on my way to work and the third person who ...

New home purchase

This is a production builder. The emphasis is creating a stream-lines process to build a home in the fastest time possible. That is a good thing, just know that the selections are extremely limited and once you have made your selections, there is no turning back.For the most part, employees were helpful and easy to work with. When adjustments and remediation were needed on the house, they were completed in a timely manner.

Woodwork was poor! Way too much caulking to cover up too long/too short cuts and gaps. Electrical was barely adequate and placement of receptacles and switches should really be done BEFORE they’re installed. Feel like not nearly enough pride was taken by the various subcontractors, especially for the price point of these homes!

Very disappointed

  • Bacil B.

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.

K. Hovnanian® Homes - Very stressful process!

  • LEAGUE CITY, TX

Very stressful process! Had to complain to get cosmetic issues fixed that clearly needed to be fixed. Construction manager did catch a few things before me and corrected them before I had to complain. KHOV waited until last minute to schedule walk through and should’ve been done at least a week prior to closing to have appropriate time to get everything fixed. Was told if I don’t close they could delay fixing the issues for months so felt forced to close so my interest rate wasn’t affected. Running across issues the longer I’m here. Can file warranty claims for some things that did get fixed ...

The construction process was very difficult

  • Cecilia V.

  • Celina, TX

During the construction, the general contractor was changed 4 times. We had issues with the constitution and was very difficult to get a response. The sales person and contractor were not coordinated. We didn't have the opportunity to get a predrywall inspection. We tried getting a meeting with someone higher than them, but no one made themselves available to hear about the issues and concerns we were having.

Not happy with builder. Poor workmanship. Customer care is taking care all issues now that should had been taken care of at the beginning when the was was being built.

  • Elisa C.

  • Casa Grande, AZ

Example of issues that should be taken care at the beginning: * door entrance could see light from outside * power in one room did not worked, * outside trim not painted correctly * garage open broken ( did any one tested) * it took 3 weeks to complete the list of the walk before closing ( if I am correct it was suppose to be completed 3 days when we got keys of the house) * we purchase a home to enjoy it not to get point out to people thing they did wrong and have to deal with fixing 3 weeks after closing) * from beginning house plans were not done as we agree . Error by salesman) *

A few issues

  • Ian S.

  • Olmsted Township, OH

Overall, we are satisfied with our new house. However, I feel that our concerns were not heard throughout the building process. Once our house was complete, there were multiple issues that still have not been fixed because we were passed on to the service department. It feels that as soon as we signed the final documents, the customer service went away.

K. Hovnanian® Homes - We like the home but immediately had plumbing issues.

We like the home but immediately had plumbing issues. This was not all Khovnanians fault as the city had connected some pipes incorrectly, but I do feel it should have been caught by an inspection ahead of time and not once we had moved in. The city finally fixed the pipes but I am still waiting for KHovnanian to replace my grass.

Smart homes that aren’t smart

House is great but add on smart package and you aren’t being smart. A total waste of money and time spent in having to chase what you paid for. Months later and still not working nor complete with no estimated completion date given. I would suggest if you want a smart home you do it through an outside party. After care is hit and miss. Twice we have waited home for our punch list items to be completed with no shows. Totally disorganized and very disappointing.
