KB Home Reviews in Boise, ID

Bought house based off model home, before home was even built. Closed on home, late by the way, only to find out I have a 4’ tall fence in back yard on one side. (HOA walkway side) so now I can not have a dog bc it will jump the fence. I have absolutely no privacy in back yard at all. It’s on a major walkway so everyone passing by can see into my yard unless they are under 4’ tall!!! The home quality is cheap. Similar to CBH Corey Barton homes is known for building homes with the cheapest materials. When I brought this up to the kb rep, he said they had to do this bc the city had a “clear view” fence requirement for some of the houses. So I walked next street over and found these fences in the same type of walkway area that satisfy the “clear view” requirement. It is a diff builder. Should have bought from them!! Unable to post a pic. But fence is basically 4’ tall and then the last two feet in height, are pickets with 4” spaces between them so you still can have a “clear view” fence per city requirement. I checked w Boise fencing and this is about $2-$3 a LF diff. Minus whatever bulk discount they get for doing 6k LF of fencing in the development. My house is about 60LF so that about $120-$180 total so I can have a dog in the home I bought. The drainage doesn’t get rid of water. I have standing water all over the back yard. It just shows that they hurried and built this with the least amount of care and as fast as they could. ... More
