There is no ownership of the contractors hired to build the homes. When I call to complain because my “NEW” home is having issues. I continuously hear “that’s the contractors fault”. The way I see it, if KB hires the contractor to do the job they should be checking over the work and making sure it’s up to the standard that KB is claiming.

Working with KB Homes has been great, every step of the process has been made easier by helpful and knowledgeable staff in the Sales Office, the Design Center, and in the field. Some quality issues have shown up after move-in but the KB Team has continued their effort to get all the issues fixed as soon as they, or their contractors, can.

Too many request asking to fix or replace items in a new unit. Owner is very uncomfortable with 2 builders. The younger builder said if I gave them ALL 10's he would make sure I got a garage door opener even though my unit did not come with one.

KB was real quick to try to get the homes done that they hired the fastest yet obviously cheapest contractors and tried to get it done in sloppy record speed.. Overall, it's liveable and I AM ultimately happy with my home although it's been nearly two months since closing and still waiting on all (somewhat minor) repairs to be fixed. I'm having to take off half a days work (which will likely turn into two half days if I suspect we're working with the same contractors) to deal with what should have been addressed with the contractors themselves prior to move in, but I digress.. Aside from ...

Our honest review to date

  • George G.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • January 18, 2023
  • Parker, CO

Quality of our home is maybe average. Failed mostly with cosmetic items - paint, inside and outside very poor, caulking, scratches and dents on appliances, but also electrical problems, insulation. Fixing these problems has been way below acceptable. Overall, we feel we did not receive the value for which we paid.

I have horrible experience with KB, very slow haven't met any of the timelines they have provided, you will not get answer to your questions, bad quality in most parts and this happens primarily due to time constraints to close. Never ever getting a home through KB Homes

Everything came together at the end. The design center was awesome. Our contacts Johnathan and Mike were both great to work with. We had good weekly updates on the progress. The list of things to correct is small but taking a while to get some of those items completed. Overall, a great experience.

My wife and I love the layout of the house we bought. The sales team and loan team were amazing which really made the buying experience great. The appliances that come with the house are very nice high end appliances. KB is really good about following up and getting you answers or help if you do have an issue . I would say at least for our house some of the workmanish on the finer details like tile work, caulking and installation of door wasnt as good as expected. The material choice for the caulking cracks out within a week and its something we have fix with a better material caulking. ...

Design was stellar, great customer service, construction had delays

The studio experience was great, we were really able to understand and bring out the full potential of the space we were given. When we had any questions, our service rep Bobby helped us at any and all hours. Construction did finish rather late and we had some areas that needed fixes still, like kitchen cabinet missing a board, water leakages in the balcony, and stovetop installed crookedly. Overall 4/5 for the good service but construction issues

I realize there was extensive delays with materials etc. Marcy was excellent as a sales rep, Paulette was thorough and patient with me and my many questions as a first time home buyer. Tyler, the substitute who did our first walkthrough was top tier.

Very very poor experience from premium builder

  • Prasad G.

I got home with ceiling fan, the backdoor sliding door was dented. The response from KBhome was super slow. I had to escalate it to corporate office to find the supervisor information and even after that I had to make multiple calls to get a response. Finally they responded but getting the work done is super slow. Also KB home in their base mode (price they put on the website) is a bare bones house. E.g they don't even give handle to door, garage door opener, LED lights as default. These are we need to take as upgrade.

Jeff, our Sales Counselor was terrific. I cannot say enough good things about him. Closing was delayed a number of weeks due to supply issues. A number of things were incomplete upon closing in early December and added to the Exception List. We are still waiting to have many of the issues resolved.
