KB Home Reviews

This was my first home buying experience and it was more than I could have imagined as for being such a smooth process. Jimmy, Chris, Kody, Andrew, and Derek were all great and just made everything simple and easy to understand.

Loved the home buying experience with KB!

It was a wonderful experience. Every person we had contact with was very friendly and helpful. We had a few things that needed to be done and the kb staff was able to help fix or correct the issues.

Very poor customer service, no flexibility. Would no refer anyone to KB homes, they cut corners everywhere they can.

We wish we could give 5 stars across the board, but in good conscience, we can not. So many minor flaws because the build process was rushed to meet a deadline. We sure reported at 10 and 30 days still aren’t resolved. Sloppy craftsmanship on concrete work, with un-smooth areas, chunks missing, materials sticking up and out of concrete. Walls have so many areas paint is missing, scrapes from tools to apply texture, Covid moneyed areas larger than 10” missed. Grout slipped all over floorboards in every single room. Caulking forgotten on bathroom mirrors. Most doors would not latch shut. Sloppy stucco work on the front of the house. Chipped tiles. Cracked grout. Sloppy grout work at particularly at corners and edges where tiles weren’t cut correctly and excess grout was put in to hide money stakes; leaving thicker grout lines next to neighboring lines. We love our home and the design options we chose, but wish someone would have explained consequences of not choosing certain things, and that didn’t happen. We just wish the follow through with minor problems would’ve been taken care of, instead we are feeling ignored because everyone is busy at the new development areas. The only saving grace for our build experience is that Robert and Thomas have been very kind, honest, and understanding about any questions and/or complaints. ... More

The process of buying my first home was easy, the portal is neat and organized, everyone I dealt with was friendly and professional. The house is built with quality materials focusing in areas of the house that needs strong materials. I can control/view many features from my phone, front door camera, alarm, heater/ AC, Water and solar panel. KB makes sure the customer is happy and I know by talking with my new neighbors. They have a great staff

The materials used to build this property are cheap and very poor quality. The work was done really bad. 2 months later still waiting on repair for things that were broken or incomplete. If they tell you that they will take care of you and not leave you hanging, don’t believe it. They will make you feel like you are asking for a favor, but you are really asking to do their job and give you what you paid for. I will not recommend, We are very dissatisfied and disappointed with the house we received.

Everything was quick and easy. Made home buying hassle-free

Buying KB is a great experience staff are very helpful from sales, loans and construction foreman are very communicative.

Very Good experience and Good human quality

It was an easy experience purchasing a home with KB Homes. During our walk-through prior to closing, everything was explained in detail. It looked like the house was made with great care for details. Joseph, the builder, went far and beyond, by giving advice and tips on the community. After our move-in, Joseph was very responsive with regard questions and minor repair. Also, he is quick to act to resolve the issue. We are definitely satisfied and happy with the quality of the home and the builder's support after move-in.

Very disappointed in my home buying experience. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone. Disgusting how they treat their customers.

Mike is responsive & professional. Great service from KB home.

Jean Campbell is the best. Always making the time to talk to residents if we have questions or concerns.

Good ! I live my new house here community and nighbours are very nice !

Second time with KB and certainly not the last…

Great and friendly experience! I totally recommend! They helped us find our perfect home. From Renee to Ernesto, the great team makes it an easy process to buy a beautiful house.

Entire process plus staff was excellent. Highly recommend. Communications with sales and construction was great.

The initial or first few interactions with each employee encountered was a fairly pleasant experience. During the build of 8 months and 3 weeks as long as there was nothing to have any concerns about, things were great. Most of the time it took to build the house went smoothly. However, there are a handful of opportunities that need definite improvement to maintain customer satisfaction. SALES (Jourdan): First to begin, the sales rep. After signing the initial documentation and expressing our interest in purchasing a home from KB (earnest money), the sales rep was no longer to be seen. Weekly email status updates were days sometimes weeks behind of what the true status of the house build. We would often know what was happening with the house by going by each week ourselves and walking into the house. The simple drive-by photos seemed like the same photo for weeks at a time sent via email with minimal updates included. DESIGN CENTER (Sarah): Overall the staff at the design center were friendly and helpful, but there were moments during the process that just were not relevant to our design choosing process. One example is the rep’s venting about the hose bib placement on their own build. This did not help provide relevant information to our own home. Had the selection been focused on our own build, I would have opted to add on a third hose bib on the opposite side of the front of the house closer to the front door. Additionally, the laminate wood flooring that we chose for our home was praised as being durable and long-lasting; however, in the short time we have lived in our home we have encountered many instances where the floor needed to be repaired from work done during the final stages of the home build. There are divots in the floor and scuffs that are noticeably visible. Point is, the quality of the floor is not living up to the praise that was given by the design center which is unfortunate because the flooring was an upgrade. BUILD PROCESS: We are very fortunate homeowners when it came to the build process of the home. It may be slightly due to our multiple visits during the week, but I would like to think it really is because of the workers on the site are skilled masterfully in their craft. There were minimal complications during the build of our home. Although, it was a little unnerving to have gone through four different construction managers during the 9-month process. The initial construction manager was late in scheduling our first construction appointment to explain the process of the build. Our first meeting with Garrett was held at the one of the model homes to discuss the foundation and look over the approval from the city of the foundation. We did not go to the site to see and have the foundation/land explained. Foundation was built and laid (land clearing, wood structure for foundation outline, bagging, pipe placement, cement pour) between November 13, 2021 through December 21, 2021. While I do not take it lightly to receive the explanation on how the foundation of the home was designed and built for our specific home, there was lag time from completing the design selections on October 30, 2021 to the first construction meeting January 13, 2022. Upon Garrett’s departure from KB he did notify us that February 11, 2022 would be his last day with the company and provided us the contact information for our new point of contact. The following construction manager(s) that were assigned to the Dove Heights community communicated and responded within a reasonable timeframe when questions were asked about the home build. The second construction meeting was scheduled for the frame walkthrough with David on April 8, 2022. David met us at the homesite and walked through the entire home explaining the frame design, build, and structure. The process was thorough and explained well in terms that a homeowner could understand and appreciate. While David was overseeing the construction of our home, he was communicative and responsive. We had a great experience in working with David for the short time he was assigned to our home. Our next construction manager whom was assigned to our home has been the most professional employee of our experience at KB. Duane has graciously walked us through the final build of our home and sought out to make sure any necessary repairs that were needed from the construction of our home were addressed timely and accordingly. Duane’s service and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. He was never bothered in providing us information on how to take care of our home as a new homeowner. As a new homeowner, it was through his customer service and leadership that really bettered our home buying experience with KB. There were many instances through the process that we had considered going elsewhere due to the lack of service or unprofessionalism that we experienced throughout. There were however some key employees that really improved our experience and helped drive home our decision in staying with KB. We strongly believe in giving honor where honor is due. We would personally like to thank the following individuals for their professionalism, integrity, honesty, attention to detail, and most importantly their service provided to new homeowners. Loan Officer Terri who I believe is no longer with the company. Loan Processor Faran – Faran! Thank you a thousand times more for your patience with us and your mad skills in loan processing. That was not an easy feat and you made the process run smooth like a well-oiled machine! Construction Managers – David, even though our time was short, thank you for your expertise and support! Most importantly, Duane! My husband and I truly appreciate all that you do! You are a huge asset to this company and if it truly was not for you and Faran I think we would have walked away months ago. You understand the importance of a person investing in a home purchase which is no simple task on all accounts. Thank you for your cus ... More

Harvey and Daniel were great to work with very responsive. Bryce however was not. He mad an error in paperwork that took over one month to fix, never responded to emails calls or texts, needed to contact Harvey in sales with any issues. Delayed final walkthrough and receiving keys due to paperwork issues he created. Lied about submitting paperwork a day before he actually submitted paperwork, very displeased working with him.

It is a lovely place to live!

The experience with KB Homes was fantastic. First, it was by wait list not buy bid than the other companies. Second, the price was lower than the prices that people pay for used houses. Third, the first estimate delivery day was on March, and we signed in June, this sound bad, but I have a friend who started her house at the same time than us with different company, and probably she will receive her house on October or November. Fourth, KB Home loan helped us to lock the interest rate for 5 months before to sign. This was a great help for us. Fifth, KB home warranty has helped us in all the details that we have found in the house. ... More

I was not able to use kb home lenders for the fact there was something on my credit report and they declined my application before I could correct the error with the credit agency. But Ken, the sales representative was awesome. He became inspirational and was there with me to the very end. I know I gave up after the rejection but Ken advised me to follow up with the credit agency which I did and the error was instantly corrected. I termed him my guiding Angel. Then comes the other out standing professionals from the Studio lady who was spot on ( I did my studio selections online-COVID 19) to the builders and I was getting timely updates and I visited countless times to keep up with the developments. I did not use an agent but I made sure I knew what was going on and what’s next to follow. Quite an experience. The greatest thing in the end, I got my dream home. It was worth the wait and the price awesome ( I was constantly checking out other builders price). The day I got my keys, went inside what’s now my home for the first time , tears rolled down like bursted water pipe, tears of joy. This is like a dream come true , actually more than I ever imagined and I found myself on my knees giving Glory to the God. ... More

My wife and I really enjoyed our home buying experience with KB. From the sales department to the final walk through each team member made us feel comfortable. They answered all of our questions and still are a month after closing escrow. Thank you.

Apart from the date delay, It has been a good experience for us all the staff has been good and helpful .I love our kbhomes!
