KB Home Reviews in Houston, TX

You get what you paid for!!!

Nice looking neighborhood and the house appears beautiful, however, it is best, to not assume everything works properly, as fast as the entire process goes it is not possible to catch every mishaps. Very unfortunate that we feel like renters still trying to get something to work properly and only being here for almost 2 months.

The exterior of the house and the materials are good. The materials used inside the house are mediocre and the workmanship is mediocre

The superintendent talked a great game but has fallen short in completing his job! The people who installed the grass did a very poor job grading and installation. There are low places and high places which was filled in with pit soil and still has not solved the problem. The job is unacceptable and needs to be done correctly which calls for removal of existing grass regrading placement of soil and reinstalling new grass. This has been brought to the attention of your company!

The KB realtor dropped the ball right before closing regarding the amount of money needed for closing.

I think the idea or the mission is good, things to improve, the workforce, work supervision, and post-sale complaints

Our Overall customer service experience wasn't as pleasurable as I would have liked it to have been, But the ending results were captivating.

would not recommend upgrading your title. KB tile contractors have sloppy work floor is uneven and the grout is three different colors in our new home. Tile company did not even have a wet saw. My son is 18 months old and will stumble when walking to the house on uneven tiles. The other trades seem to do a little bit better for KB. My recommendation would be save your money. Don’t upgrade find a professional that can do it right after you’re in your house.

They need to improve on customer service

They are taking a lot of time in taking care of my warranty issues.

I am not satisfied with the quality of workmanship. Things keep falling out of place.

KB homes is a great place to buy your dream house. I really love my new house. Just wish I had prior experience buying a house so I could get certain things inplace on the house before I moved it.

Too many unnecessary delays that prolonged the building process.

Beautiful floor plan and love the house, but better quality control and better handling of issues with construction is needed.

Salesman: Started with Claudia ended with Jeff (great guy - I like Jeff) Loan Officer: Started with “forgot name” ended with Corey(I liked him) Project manager: Started with John, ended with Chris. (Not going to say anything bad but I don’t have anything good to say about either) Customer Service Rep: Started with Eric and now have Damon ( Damon is definitely helping with the issues) With all the switching, I felt like that was a red flag alone.... Honestly I haven’t been happy. This was my first purchased home and I’ve had quite a few issues. Yes, understand mistakes happen but does this company have a in house inspector or is it the “project managers” job to catch the workers mistakes... Just a few things I’ve dealt with in my “brand new home”..... Some of the bedroom doors don’t lock - need to tell Damon. Carpet issues - repaired! Fence detached - notified Damon Dented garage - replaced and painted. Damon is working on that. Back door isnt flush, can’t lock the top lock on the back door - need to tell Damon Overall: We love our home and the location, ready to get these issues resolved and I’ll happy. ... More

Not bad. Just be sure about your closing date

Take your time to check everything carefully before signing off. My brand new stainless steel sink has been scratch, also my counter top. The paint on my garage still showing streaks of white paint, My front doorknob has a different color paint than my stain door. At the bottom of my front door I can see daylight . I notice a hole on the ceiling in my closet. Painting looks like my 5 yr old nephew did it. The fence is poorly put together. Workmanship gets a F - …….

the building team was and is amazing. they are the reason I recommended kb homes in the state of florida.

Our house did not have the upgrades we selected at the studio. We realized that only after closing. They haven't fixed it yet and is delayed for ever. Rest everything is good so far.

We love our new home.

My overall experience buying thisnhome started out amazing. In fact i didnt even think i was going to be buying a KB Home but the salesperson michael was amazing and when we saw the model home it was everything we wanted and the peefect price. The construction team was very communicative and during the build and kept me updated. My experience went south when my loan officer Victoria got involved. There was zero communication on locking in my interest rate so when it came time to close the interest rate had gone up! The only way we could get it back to the original rate is to do a adjustable rate mortgage and because of her bad communication i now had to roll the dice and hope i can refinance at some point in the next 5 years or take on future intrest rates which could cost us thousands of dollars in paying interest. I originally wanted 30 year fixed loan but the amaount of money it would have cost us to get the rate down was far outside what i budgeted. That was just the first experience. The next was no communication around the closing day! Yes the most important day of a homeowners journey she failed to give me accurate dates costing me even more money in extending my lease for a couple days and staying in a hotel for a couple days. The closing day wasnt just misquoted once not twice but three times. Keep in mind i have all my stuff packed up in a uhaul and am now having to pay extended uhaul rental days. I was basically homeless for a week with my fiance and a new born. When it came time for a manager to take care of the situation the response was slow and took forever. They told me multiple times “there is nothing we can do”. I finally got a hold of the regional manager and he was professional and able to offer me $1000 towards my closing. Though that didnt event slightly cover the cost of adjustments i had to make. I didnt really care about the money it was more that my feedback was heard to prevent anyone else from having this same experience. He also was able to help arrange a closing day on a saturday which i am appreciative even though it was still my loan officers fault for skipping over major details in the process that caused this. The icing on the cake was when we finally closed and got to our new home. The loan officer never told the construction manager about us closing on saturday so he could have the house cleaned and ready for us. So we came in to a home that didnt have its finishing touch. The construction manager brayden was able to get a crew out asap and have it cleaned but the breakdown in communication was unfortunate and again we just had to roll with the punches. As a homeowner i would now never want to buy a home again because of how tramatizing this experience was. As a loan officer you basically have the customers finacial future in the palm of your hands. The least you could do is slow down when it comes to MAJOR details and make sure the customer is caught up. My experience with KB was great from everyone else but i felt the need to write this review to warn others about my experience with my loan officer. ... More

Good experience buying the house. However, the responses to issues found in my have been too slow.

KB Homes has great homes with great upgrades for the price. My experience with the sales agent and construction manager were awesome!

Construction was horrible. Communication was horrible. Lender was perfect.
