KB Home Reviews

Terrible experience with building team and sales. Not a builder who keeps the customer in mind since everything done is always rushing the customer. Mistakes were made by builder yet customer has to pay the price. Unable to trust Tami, Nick, and Al.

The most bizarre people to buy homes from. Warranty manager Mr Matt never picks his calls or responds when you have an emergency or issues with the home to discuss. They just ignore you. Absolutely terrible!

My home buying experience with KB was terrible—the worst experience I've had. I felt mistreated so many times. They took almost two years to build my house. Communication was non-existent, and when I reached out to talk to them, they acted like I was bothering them. I was unfairly treated regarding the interest rate, closing costs, and even the location of my home. If I had the funds, I would have considered legal action against KB Home. I wouldn't wish what I went through with KB Home on my worst enemy.

Unfortunately we have had a very bad experience with our KB home purchase. Not only did they fall greatly short on presenting a finished "New" home but have lacked any sense of Urgency to get issues resolved. The staff are pleasant and friendly but just haven't gotten it done as of this review. I know people that have purchased Kb homes and loved them so maybe we just got a bad crew.

This was the worst home buying experience I’ve ever had. I will not recommend KB homes to any one of my friends, family or even my worst enemy. No one should ever have to deal with a lazy, unorganized, unprofessional group of people ever especially when buying a home. Buying a home is suppose to be an enjoyable experience this however was far from it. I’ve been moved into the home for 3 months and stuff is still not finished yet. They do not keep their word even if it’s on paper as contract. Worst company to deal with

The builder appears to have hired contractors who offer rock-bottom pricing but deliver subpar workmanship. Since moving into my new home on February 15th, I have uncovered numerous issues and defects in the construction. The most glaring example is that even something as basic as installing a wall oven was done incorrectly. At this point, I've given up trying to get the builder to address and resolve these problems, as repeated attempts have proven futile.

No one show up in the house for the 10 days walk nor the 30 days walk. I had a list of items that need to be completed the house drywall paint doors are damaged. Locks are not working properly bathroom problems and still no one showed up. I reach out to the construction manager. I left them a voicemail. I text them the information they get they send me the people that wrong. I still have problems in the house has not been fixed. I would highly recommend it. Anyone from future resident of KB Homes . Do not sign the closing until you have everything completed in the house to your satisfaction

Had a major issue issue related to crawlspace and still it exists, wood work is not proper throughout the house. For 30 days they bluffed that they are going to fix a wood work issue and on the day of closing they mentioned that it cannot be done. Literally no response from KB Warranty team, need to follow-up multiple times on any issue. Very high price.

It has been a nightmare starting with the closing that took 5 hours at no fault of my own- to a pipe leaking in the wall a week after I closed.

WE HAVE BAD EXPERIANCE WITH KB HOME FINANCE AND STUDIO .WE MISS A LOT THING BECUASE OF THE STUDIO AND WE WASTE OUR TIME WITH THEIR FINANCE IS NOT APPROVED WITH THEM FOR 7 MONTHS AND THEN I WENT WITH ANTHER LENDER APPROVED WITHIN 20 DAYS .THE SALES MAN IS GREAT HIS NAME IS BRANDEN AND THE SUPER ATTENDENT LORENZO ,BOTH ARE VERY HELPFULL .

It has been a horrible experience to enter the house of your dreams and that it has too many inconveniences and that when trying to fix one thing they break down another, we are still waiting for repairs in our house and it's sad that they don't want to help us

Material is so bad in my house

KB sales office upgraded my flooring to wood and failed to send me a sample of the flooring. I requested 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch engineered wood! They used cheaper 3/8 wood and charged 30K. Did not send me sample! THIEFS!

From the start to the end was awful. I regret signing off at the walk through as I was promised areas of the home would be corrected and still have not 2 months later. I have called and text several people with no response.

KB WILL NEVER GET MY BUSINESS OR HARD EARNED $$$ EVER AGAIN, PULTE HOMES FROM HERE ON OUT.

Kb is one of the worst company to deal with. If you have any issue with the home no one seem to be able to help. Stay away. Recently purchase less then 2 months ago. Having issue and no one cares. The worst experiences I have seen.

This has been, and continues to be, the most frustrating encounter I've ever had with a builder. Despite having a year and a half to construct the home, the same issues were repeatedly brought to their attention. The repairs carried out by KB were subpar and haphazard, resulting in the need for multiple returns, and the situation deteriorated with each attempt. We invested significant time to fulfill our obligations and be available when required, only to find them unprepared and tasks incomplete. Despite asking multiple times for confirmation of completion before our arrival, KB consistently deceived us. As two professionals with demanding schedules, we sacrificed valuable time off based on inaccurate closing dates. Additionally, we incurred financial losses due to missed rental opportunities and payments to third-party vendors engaged for necessary inspections. We closed on the house with outstanding items that remain open! What should have been an exciting moment was stolen from us. We closed on 10/6/2023 and still waiting on repairs to be coordinated. Warranty is unresponsive, does not reply in a timely manner, does not follow through with agreements in place, work orders were completed incorrectly, people are showing up without the proper resources to complete tasks, showing up unscheduled, and work completed is mediocre often times leaving more things to fix and clean up. Staff is condescending and tries to manipulate the customers into completing the survey with scores that are not merited, offering upgrades for higher scores. This is very unprofessional and unethical. Delaying work orders to ensure that the survey was completed to their satisfaction. ... More

Home buying with KB is the most worst experience ever. Doors coming off the hinges, air vents installed backwards, Defective drywall, wrapped door frame. Home was never Cleaned on mover day, items that needed to be fix was lefted undone. I can go one put it's pointless.

The quality is really really bad!!!!!!!!!

We were very excited when we made an offer for our first home with KB home in Tesoro Viejo, Madera, CA but our excitement got ruined when the bulider doesn’t meet the expectations. First of all, it started with the sales management. Through our whole home buying process, their sales agents were keep on changing so we had to work with 3 different sales agents in 6-7 months and there was lack of communication and transparency. The first sales agent, we started working with, didn’t clarify all the upgrades and standard things when we made offer. It was frustrating when the home was almost ready and we didn’t find the things we were expecting in the home as we even weren’t aware of that ‘those were part of upgrades’. When we brought this issue to the Sales management, they didn’t respond for almost 3 months about the issue because their sales department doesn’t want to accept their fault and tried to blame us (the customer) for all that mess they created. Even though KB home’s design studio wasn’t aware of those upgrades. When we double checked with KB home’s design studio about our concerns they were also not aware of those upgrades. But the worst customer service they provided on that time when KB home’s management respond us with negative response about those concerns after 3 months that if we want those things, we have to pay for those and it was totally irritating that how come a Builder is asking to pay for something which is not customer’s fault and didn’t mentioned to us while we made the offer. Instead of accepting their managements faults, they tried to blame us for each and every mistake they made. Because of KB home’s unresponsiveness and being irresponsible of their mangement’s mistakes we have to pay extra interest rate on our mortgage as we were not able to move forward with our closing until we get any response from them. Finally, when the time comes for closing they messed up with the upgrades for what we paid for and they stepped back and didn’t fix those by saying that “Its right according to us”. I paid alot for my upgrades but the quality of everything is compromised by KB home according to the price they charge us. Our overall experience with KB home was the worst experience we ever had with anything else. KB home was treating us like they are giving free home to us so they don’t care about the customers satisfaction. I will never ever recommend anyone to move forward with KB home if they are willing to buy their dream home. They totally ruined my first home buying process. Extremely dissatisfied with the quality of products they use in building my new home, the sales management and the customer service they provided to us. ... More

This as been a terrible purchase. My son use to work for KB home and tons of things are happen that he said are not the same when he was there and he is the reason I purchased this house. The Finance company tried to rip me off with the rate, construction was unresponsive and didn't get work done in time for closing. As a matter of fact there is still work outstanding and my son had to coordinate most of things himself because he was tried of waiting on construction. No one at KB Home order the Certificate of Occupancy, so my son ordered it himself from the city of Cibolo. No one from KB communicates and apologizes for closing a week late and work unfinished. ...

Very upset with over all service from kb homes.
