Nails and metal pieces along back of house. Towel racks not secure. Light fixture in main bathroom not straight. Drip system in front yard not working for plant next to entrance stairs. cement dropping on driveway (hard will take hammer and chisel to remove, Front light fixture not straight

The process was ok. There was some times where multiple conversations needed to be had but overall, i am satisfied.

We had a great experience with KB with only minor issues involving misunderstandings between their team. We love our home and are very happy!

The PM for our community has been very responsive when trouble with our home arises. Attention to detail during the building process by the builder and PM needs to improve in order to illiminate the iisseus I have experienced.

Very responsive in fixing any issues.

Important to be fully engaged in the production process. Pay attention to details and take proper notes: who, when, where, and why. Especially the pre-walk-thru, and final walk-thru before closing. Punch list completion after closing is onerous, some issues still open six (6) weeks after closing.

Just customer services is good, I am happy to got home.

Great!

House was built according to plans, things went smooth from beginning to end. There were some minor issues that the builder had to come back to fix, but overall things went well. Good customer service, good construction manager, good warranty service, and good studios inventory. The reasons I didn’t give the 5 stars was because we found lot of crack on the garage floor foundations, and front porch. We also found three same long crack on the door molding frames. There were a few dents on the door molding frames, and the house was not clean when we moved in.

Homes are very Pretty. They tell you that their homes are special and all the different things they do that others don't (supposedly). They told us the sub-flooring is laid down a special way so that you never get creaky floors, but we have only been in our house for a month and already the floors knock and creak. Also if you have children, do not let them in your backyard until you have a chance to get it fixed up looking how you want it. Their construction crews leave nails everywhere and the yard dirt is filled with them. The home warranty program is a nice touch since they know they cut some corners during building and the customer will have some complaints/issues after moving in. Overall the houses are very nice looking. I would recommend that anyone purchasing keep an eye on your home every few days as it is being built. We found numerous incorrect things done in our house along the way that we had paid extra for and had to make them aware of it so that they were corrected before walls had to be ripped out to fix them. It's your house and you know how you want it. Make them aware of issues along the way during the building process and don't let them blow you off. You are paying a lot of money for your home, make sure it is done to your standards not theirs. ... More

I wish KB homes was more flexible and agreeable to minor design changes.

Nice house in a nice neighborhood. Phillip has been great. Chelsey at the studio was super. The studio was really fun, helpful and highly recommended.

Great new community for families buying a house for the first time. Great staff to provide assistance with the home buying process.

Good price homes.

Underwriting ruined the whole experience because VANESSA never knew what she was doing and constantly requested duplicates or conflicting information.

Home had two issues that should have been identified and addressed during quality checks. Very disappointing. Issues have since been addressed but it took quite some time. Water was not turned back on to dishwasher after installation causing motor damage and changing a lightbulb led to power outage in two rooms, one of which a bathroom and the other a home office. Electrical company used by KB is not reputable, professional or timely.

Great experience buying with KB. Was good to have everything we needed under one roof. Very attentive staff who listened to what we needed, from the Sales team and the interior design studio to the building and closing team. We love our new house.

I think the quality of materials and workmanship could have been better. KB should have given more options for selection and included additional standard options for appliances and fixtures compared to other builders in the area. Also the floor plan could have utilized more space upstairs when compared to the total build up area. Overall satisfied 1st time home buyer. I got the product what I have paid for.

On your walkthrough look over it with a fine-tooth comb there's always something that you miss

Somewhat sloppy on workmanship. Many finish details overlooked. Tiles with saw marks continuing for inches past a cut of a tile. Most window sills without paint on sides or bottom. Sloppy caulking around door trims but painted over anyway. Overall, a nice house, but with many finishing touches overlooked. The people at KB who have been helping us resolve issues after move-in have all been very responsive and great to work with, though.

We moved into our new home about 2 months ago. The overall experience with KB has been pleasant. Their staff has been amazing getting all the little odds and ends fixed and wrapped up. With that being said I feel there was a handful of things that were missed that could have been corrected before we moved in. Little odds and ends of holes being left in walls where a railing was moved, a few cracked roof tiles, bathroom fan not even being wired up, and issues with windows not closing and opening right. I also feel as if some of the sub contractors cut some corners to save some money, for example no weed barrier under landscaping. It's hard having to deal with the constant scheduling to have sub contractors out fixing small things that could have been caught before it got to us, but the customer service reps go so far above and beyond to make sure every little detail is corrected in a timely manor. If something comes up they are only a phone call away and get the ball rolling as soon as they hang up the phone. They have never once made me feel like my requests were absurd or unreasonable. ...

The quality of the building materials as of the framing I saw a lot of pieces that I would have use , But they pass inspection I also saw those same pieces and other homes being built . Once in the you start to notice small things like Call king not done in some areas grout already decaying ,, window seals not even , I have been in the house 2 months still have a problem with gnats, can’t seem to get rid of them, the building manager and my want to person has definitely tried to help with the problem and I commend him for that .. Overall I am happy with the house

Easy to work with. Process was explained clearly and given timely updates. They finished a month early which worked out great. Overall very pleased with my purchase

Overall very pleased with our home. There were some small glitches in end but most were resolved to our liking. The main issue I have is the constant surveys and reviews requested by KB, plus the insistence by the staff the receive all 10's for ratings (because they don't get their bonus if not all tens). Well, news for you KB nobody is capable of all 10's all the time. People make mistakes. Plus, nagging by the staff every time we saw them to "please give us 10's on the survey. That was enough to make me want to give 0's. You should want to know what the issues were not the successes. One staff member hinted at giving us extra things on our home so we would give him 10's. If you want a true measure of how you are doing, look at how many referrals from current homeowners to prospective buyers. ... More

The home was beautiful to see on completion. It is the small things that should have been resolved that prevents an excellent experience. Many of the small things weren't big problems, however there are a few things that will need to be addressed and resolved at a planned date.
