KB Home Reviews

I did not have any real issues with this builder. I love my floor plan. The house was built in a timely manner considering the issued with backordered and delayed materials. I was told when the process started that is was highly possible the the home would not be completed on schedule and it was not however it was completed and I have moved in. The construction manager was very helpful and responsive and I appreciated that.

Great experience for first-time homebuyers. They walk you through the steps and make sure you know what is going on every step of the way. Unfortunately, they cut corners on the finishing touches and left a few things below standard.

The process during the home build was good, but once I closed there were plenty of exceptions that needed to be completed. Wished the home was more “move in ready” than what I walked into.

Overall good experience with KB homes.

This has been a rollercoaster ride! I think what I will take from this whole experience is COMMUNICATE! & Make sure your sales rep is around after you sign the papers/contract because he disappeared like David Copperfield-

Overall good. Especially since we got in early and got a good price.

The sales office was great. My rep kept me apprised of status, progress and timeline. I felt like the KBHS team could have done a better job 'coaching' on the phase of the loan progress. Multiple times, months would go by without notice and then there was an immediate required action item that was crucial to he loan process, which created a lot of unnecessary stress. I also had to specifically call out issues and updates that were required to be made in my closing summary statements multiple times. Had I not put the effort to perform details reviews of my closing summary, I'm certain they would not have been caught which would have resulted in me paying excess fees; again unnecessary stress for something that should have been a seamless and generally exciting/enjoyable process. ...

Materials are not of good quality, for example, the cabinet we have many broken

We had a good home buying experience all the way from the sales agent, financing team, and build team.

Overall I am happy with my new home. However, the process took much longer than I had anticipated. This was probably due to a shortage of workers and difficulty obtaining materials. The 30 day warranty check did not happen. I am anticipating the 60 day check. There are just a few items that need to be fixed in my home.

Mark was very responsive with all questions and concerns we had, same with Kacey. Issues with house falling behind original schedule continued throughout the build that was very frustrating especially when balancing rate locks, apartment leases, and movers

Ingrid and Vanessa were great, Also the design studio was a great experience, Everyone came through just great when we were scrambling at the last moment to complete the signing

I had a wonderful experience with KB sale staff and loan processing. I just wished KB has better workmanship and materials. However, KB representative is willing to work out the issues and make sure it would be taken care of. Overall, I am happy with my new home. There are many more years to come. So I will have to wait and see.

Generally speaking, the quality is rather good although there is still some small defects. The salesperson and other staffs are friendly and helpful.

The seller Debbie was Legit, very nice to do business with, Erick and Johnny were very good at what they do always tried to make themselves available within a reasonable time frame.

Home buying experience with KB was overall good. Sales person, was awesome and cared to help. Loan team and customer experience didn’t show that they care, in fact it felt the opposite. Customer care team especially was trying come up with unrelated reason why a defected area was normal and it didn’t need fixing. This is big investment and that team needs to work with the customer to ensure everything is to their satisfaction. Attention to detail is very important but unfortunately I didn’t see that in my house

Saul is an outstanding salesperson. Noland was responsive to my concerns. Sean was excellent with my laon. I was not able to make one of my most important structural options changes due to timing, but some design center changes were facilitated. Home was not finished when my walkthrough was scheduled, so I could not do final inspection personally. Overall, staff made the experience easy for me.

In a couple of words - pretty good overall, recommend.

Hard to tell how this is going to hold up but the canned lights started falling out of the ceiling the second week I was here. The water in this area is absolutely horrible- I don’t see how anyone could live without a whole house filter and softener- yet the house is not plumbed for installing a system- except for the side of the house by the street- in the sun and in plain sight. I have several issues that I asked for help with and they say they will come check but nobody ever shows up. They promised that if I would give them a 10 on the survey- they would come back and paint the garage that was left unpainted- something that would have taken them 15 minutes to paint when it was empty and they were painting everything else anyway- yet they chose not to do it in order to get a perfect score. Well I answered the survey before moving in- gave a perfect score because I wanted the garage painted. I’m buying paint today and painting the garage myself- it has been a month since the survey. I’m not holding my breath that anyone will show up and do what they said. I can fix stuff and I’ll hire outside people to come fix things. I just don’t know why they make those promises. Hoping the house will hold up- luckily not much has fallen apart in the first month so maybe the construction is good- can’t really judge that completely after a month. Responsiveness to issues with the structure is not impressive. Maybe that is not part of the deal- not sure why they tell you that then. ... More

Everything had been great other than the promise to have our front yard and wing fence put in. We have been told over and over that it will be done and still have nothing. It has been the only thing we have had trouble getting answers about.

It was a long process from beginning to end, but nothing longer than what they quoted us in the beginning. Everyone in the process made themselves available for any questions we had and even after we moved in. My loan officer, Brian was great and took the time to explain everything to me. Lori was also super fast with responses and answers to questions.

The quality and workmanship building my home was rushed. There were so many cosmetic issues that needed to be cured after move in. The garage door button on the wall was not working due to electrical wiring issues. The first floor bath shower wall had deep scratches, and the ceramic sink had Grey spots embedded in the sink which was a defect. First floor front entrance door, the fire door to garage, and the first floor bath door needed adjustments,. The kitchen cabinet doors had gaps needed adjustments, and they forgot to install the bottom Molding to the cabinets. Missing closet Door handle Plates, the strike plate on the laundry door casing issue, and the White cap on the 2nd floor bedroom Closer door stopper for the bedroom closet door above the garage. First floor window latch was loose, large drywall cracks in my kitchen ceiling, and master bedroom ceiling from the air vent. Bedroom and bathroom door finish Was painted over due to scratches, and golf size dips in the wall. The builder warranty rep was quick to schedule dates and increments for vendors to come out to the house to cure the issues. Overall it’s a good home, and they were very responsive to my issues. ...

Over all, I would recommend KB builder to everyone.

It was good and had no issues.

Buying experience was great. Winnie and Jeff were very responsive and great to work with. Once I moved in, the response was less immediate. I either have had to fix the small concerns myself or continue to wait for them to be fixed. Although I have had a few hiccups, I would say overall it was a great experience.
