Customer Reviews

Delay in delivery below average quality and workmanship

  • San Marcos, CA

It was a terrible mistake to buy from KB home which could not deliver in a timely matter with below standard workman ship. Unlike what the company claims that they are number one, I learned the hard way about them with loss of over $20,000 during one year of waiting and responding to unrelated requests for loan documents which was ridiculous like writing essay for marketing properties. I am still waiting to hear from them about some outstanding issues.

The home buying experience was so easy and pleasant thanks to Malissa. She was available at all times an even responded on her days off! She went above and beyond to help out in any way, and reached out to her resources to assist as needed. Scott and team were excellent as well, very responsive to our concerns and quick to get items resolved. Very professional too.

Nice KB Home

  • May M.

I wish KB homes would include a single basin sink with goose neck faucet in the kitchen and quartz countertops to be included in all homes versus being an upgrade, otherwise all else is fine. The sales team & maintenance team on site are all great and very responsive to any requests.

Danelle at the sales office was really great at getting me information and helping me through the buying process. For a first time homebuyer this was really helpful. The entire team including the lending and construction teams made every work very well and allowed the closing to go super smoothly. I would recommend this for any new homebuyer.

I think new homes these days are never going to be great quality, just because of the rushed deadlines. The best you can hope for is a builder who takes accountability and will fix things (even if it does take a while).

I would highly recommend the sales and building team at KB Homes to anyone looking to buy a new home. From the initial sales consultation to the final walk-through, the team was always responsive and helpful. They took the time to understand our needs and concerns, and they worked with us to create a home that exceeded our expectations. The construction process was smooth and efficient, and the team was always available to answer our questions or address any concerns even after the home was finished. We are so happy with our new home, and we would not have been able to achieve this without ...

This wonderful home-buying experience was packed with thrills throughout the three months from the time we saw the house to the day we moved in. Maleesa guided us all along the process, expertly advising us. And the house is our forever superb home. Also, with great gratitude to Scott and his team for quick responses and fixes for every little thing that we can think of. KB homes fan for life!

Bad sales people, unfair sales experience, poor quality, poor service, worst new home buying experience ever.

  • Zahir A.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • February 12, 2023
  • San Marcos, CA

The sales people used high pressure tactics and misled us during the purchasing process. They did not communicate with the lender or the design center. We had to check that everything we paid for was installed. We paid for higher end cabinets and they were not even installed correctly. They came with lots of damages, they are still not fixed even though the house has closed for 3 months. This was not our first time buying a new home, but it was the worst new home buying experience. It definitely did not feel like we were purchasing a home that cost more than a million dollars. We would never ...

Scott was the first person we met at KB and he went above and beyond to guide us every step of the way, moving from out of state is tough but Scott made every effort to keep us in the loop, answering all of our questions and quickly finding solutions to any problems that would arise. We met Brian early on and he is so easy to work with, very responsive and helpful through whole process. Scott and Brian made us feel like family, a testament to their great character.I would highly recommend KB homes in quality, service, communication and overall process.
