Seems like they finished home in rush and had some issues with home. Took them forever to fix the problems and there are still some that I had to fix it my self. Never had frame walk when they were building the home. Had few concerns during building process that we aren't sure if they were fixed or not because no one got back to us.

Do not close till ALL issues are resolve. They will do bare minimum once you are in home.

They were not truthful about the move in date and kept pushing back the date. The quality of the home is not worth the price I paid. There are a lot of defects in the home that needs to be repaired.

Can see studs in wall kB has not fixed wall yet

My buying experience was horrible. Getting accurate and truthful information was like pulling eye-teeth. Things did not start getting better until the PR guy stepped in. Many of the upgrades were overpriced and some of the trades were very careless with their work. But so far, the PR/Warranty person I've been in contact with is outstanding. I am very thankful for that, and the home is nice. But the buying process was one of the most stressful things I have encountered in quite a few years.

Bad quality. Bad painting so thin came off easily. Everything damage easy

Back office loan folks were rude and disrespectful. Many projects were rushed as the longer we are there the more we can see uneven title, cement not completely used underneath tile which led to cracking. Show doors/door way unevenly done. Dish washer was immediately broken day one of move in (heating element), appliances are cheap and not well made, will have to repaint as flat white paint used, list goes on. It’s a house that was affordable in today’s market but you get what you paid for. Also despite promises of community is not lived in it will be delayed. Past three communities locally were. ... More

Lots of broken promises yet to hear from anyone

Nearly two months in and I still have a broken garage. Not all my knobs for my cabinets are installed. It took over a month to provide a missing air filter.

STAY AWAY WHILE YOU CAN. DOWNSTAIR RESTROOM IS FLAWED.....44 DEGREES DURING THE WINTER? KB BLAMES THIS ON THE BUYER FOR SELECTING TILES..BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT MAKES IT COLD.

Victoria didnt answer phone calls or texts

The entire experience was/is horrible. From the start a salesperson giving wrong information about home options & solar programs, sales/customer service people not showing up to home walk through appointments, to multiple building delays. After a 11 month wait l moved in & it took five weeks to gain access to my mailbox. Not to mention, after two appraisals the house still came in almost $30k under the purchase price. Highly recommend using another builder.

We were provided unsatisfactory experience throughout the entire process, from initial purchase to final move-in. The quality of the workmanship and customer service were horrible! There is value of our new home because of the lot size and location I’m hesitant to trust the home itself has the value of what we paid due to lack of workmanship/customer service. Our experience with the builder’s team was that they severely lack communication and follow through as well as disregard homebuyers concerns. They never did what they promised and keep making excuses for it. They have never respond to us in a timely fashion. What I would like buyers to know most is that if they have to buy a home here they should use their own Lender and Realtor and ABSOLUTELY DO NOT attend the home orientation without their realtor or sign off on the “orientation” without ALL items in the home cleaned, scratches buffed out, drywall being in pristine condition as well as window and electrical being to your standards! ...

I am unhappy with my KB Home. The home was quickly built and it shows. My walls are not straight and the interior paint is horrible. I will not buy another KB Home in the future and can’t wait to sell this one soon.

Material is so bad in my house

We were very excited when we made an offer for our first home with KB home in Tesoro Viejo, Madera, CA but our excitement got ruined when the bulider doesn’t meet the expectations. First of all, it started with the sales management. Through our whole home buying process, their sales agents were keep on changing so we had to work with 3 different sales agents in 6-7 months and there was lack of communication and transparency. The first sales agent, we started working with, didn’t clarify all the upgrades and standard things when we made offer. It was frustrating when the home was almost ready and we didn’t find the things we were expecting in the home as we even weren’t aware of that ‘those were part of upgrades’. When we brought this issue to the Sales management, they didn’t respond for almost 3 months about the issue because their sales department doesn’t want to accept their fault and tried to blame us (the customer) for all that mess they created. Even though KB home’s design studio wasn’t aware of those upgrades. When we double checked with KB home’s design studio about our concerns they were also not aware of those upgrades. But the worst customer service they provided on that time when KB home’s management respond us with negative response about those concerns after 3 months that if we want those things, we have to pay for those and it was totally irritating that how come a Builder is asking to pay for something which is not customer’s fault and didn’t mentioned to us while we made the offer. Instead of accepting their managements faults, they tried to blame us for each and every mistake they made. Because of KB home’s unresponsiveness and being irresponsible of their mangement’s mistakes we have to pay extra interest rate on our mortgage as we were not able to move forward with our closing until we get any response from them. Finally, when the time comes for closing they messed up with the upgrades for what we paid for and they stepped back and didn’t fix those by saying that “Its right according to us”. I paid alot for my upgrades but the quality of everything is compromised by KB home according to the price they charge us. Our overall experience with KB home was the worst experience we ever had with anything else. KB home was treating us like they are giving free home to us so they don’t care about the customers satisfaction. I will never ever recommend anyone to move forward with KB home if they are willing to buy their dream home. They totally ruined my first home buying process. Extremely dissatisfied with the quality of products they use in building my new home, the sales management and the customer service they provided to us. ... More

I bought a house with KBHOMES in Feb,2022. And everything breaks in my house every week and when you email or call . They don’t respond. I regret buying home from KBhome my kitchen cabinet fall off and they haven’t fix for 2months. My garage door is broken and I message and call No response. I wish I have done my research before going with KBHOMES. Very bad experience

I will share my experience with kb home

We had high hopes in the very beginning, but after KB got our non refundable $5000 things changed. We were treated rudely and couldn’t get straight answers for anything. After moving in we’ve had one problem after another. It doesn’t seem like anything can go smoothly. We’ve had someone out about our flooring 4 times and are still having major issues. KB told us in the buying process that they stand behind their build and products, but we’re feeling very letdown. We’ve had many issues with many !! Things some have been resolved and some haven’t.

I would stay clear from KB Home in Madera County CA because it doesn’t make sense to buy a new home that have so many damaged and missing items. I bought the top model and paid a lot for a lot of upgrades items, but a lot of it are damaged and are still missing. It’s a very aggravating new home buying experience. In light of this, maybe KB Home is different in different counties/states, but it’s very bad in Madera County CA thats for sure.

Too bad too late
