Ability to switch or retain Sales Agent. Finally, We should be able to get the price adjustment or credits within 30 days as market has slowed down and the price of the houses decreased to 15K-30K from the time of our purchase. It's truly appropriate cause the demand has decreased, this will put KB Home over the top of their competitors cause, KB can stand by their own quality of home builders on Price, Quality and Craftsmanship.

This was our first home buying experience and we were very pleased with the whole process. KB Home made the process easy and the weekly updates on our new home and progress were exciting and informative. Finally, once in our home our Customer Service Rep (Ryan) has been amazing from the very beginning! He has helped us fix issues and small details we found after moving in and even helped us mount our TVs! Thank you Ryan and KB Home team for helping us set up our new home.

There is good and bad when buying a tract home. The good is that you get to be the first one to live in the house. The bad is that KB Home is under a timeline to get these homes constructed. This can result in some work quality issues. Being a new homeowner myself, I was expecting a perfect home, but as I have learned, there will never be a perfect home. So I suggest, be very diligent when doing the walkthrough of your home and ask as many questions as possible and makes sure they fix everything, even the minor ones.

There was long delay in construction. One of the door handles came in my hand when I was trying to open the door. There are cracks in the ceiling. Landscape is worse as far as sprinkler system is concerned. The worst thing is they don't fix the things. I can't open my garage door. That shows QUALITY OF CONSTRUCTION. Two different colors of stucco.

The signing of the house and the first half of the process was a breeze. The last leg of the home buying experience was not pleasant. Getting small issues fixed is very time consuming and if you're not on top of the work being put on a calendar, you'll fall through the cracks.

Sales process was great. I always felt like we were our sales representative only customer. She was in constant communication and answered questions we had throughout the process. Once we closed, things changed. The customer service representative don't always respond and we have to email constantly to follow up on on items that are incomplete, not done properly, or missing. We still have several items that we flagged a month and a half ago that are still not fixed.

I have had 3 construction superintendents which was a very disappointing and frustrating experience. I will say Paul was the last one and considering what he was left to deal with I guess he has done his best. However, my house still needs the upstairs rails fixed. The KB painter did a horrible job and I have a home full of touch-ups that still need to be done. I also took it upon myself to purchase paint from Sherman Williams to start doing it myself. My grass was DEAD and brown BEFORE it was even put out in my yard! I watered it religiously and as of yesterday, the back yard is still dead, so dead that as I was pulling up the weeds the entire squares of grass was coming up with it! I am aware that there is no warranty for grass however with the purchase of a brand new home KB should ensure that grass is ALIVE when it's placed in a yard.

My best experience was with Lennar. Sales - customer oriented... Understood the need and resolved immediately. Sales were fighting for our interests.

Overall experience is good, but expect a lot of delays. Sales and construction team are great, especially Susana ** who went beyond and pushed for project completion. KB Home selected their suppliers so they should take responsibility on the tardiness of their suppliers instead of passing the blame.

As a construction worker I have had the experience of working with a large number of developers over the past 6 years as an installer. KB Home has always stood out to me as one that has been on top of the game in what they do in communication and satisfaction within the process of home building. My wife and I had been looking to move for months (almost a year) and viewing numerous homes. We settled quite honestly because of floor plan to our family size, design and uniqueness, and staff friendliness and accommodation. We were not expecting to be pulled from the draw initially but it happened the first week.
Ready to get going we found out only a few weeks later she was diagnosed with cancer. Handling everything with the process you have created helped ease every part within this last year.

Home buying experience was not bad just felt unorganized due to us doing the walk through the day right before closing. Wanted to make sure everything was good before we closed because we heard that things don't get done once they have your money. Giving the benefit of the doubt we closed and 2 months later 2 of the 10 issues we encountered have gotten resolved. Appointments are set and no one comes. The electrician was supposed to be here 4 times now and a no show. Cabinet handles we were told they were sold out. Tired of hearing my wife argue I went to home depot and they had plenty. I have began to fix some of the issues myself because I can't count on customer service to do what they say they will do.

What to say about this company KB Homes??? If I can give 0 stars I will....It's one of the worst companies I've ever seen, I just had problems, in November my husband and I decided to build our house, then the customer service problems start, then with the people involved in the financing.... Just frustration after frustration, until my mother-in-law who was our co-sign was furious with the situation at KB Home and with my husband and decided not to be a co-sign anymore.
So far so good, we lost the house, because in mid-July KB informed us that without our co-sign and with the increase in interest we would not qualify for the purchase of the house, and they sent us the letter signed by all parties involved ending our contract, in addition to being very sad this whole situation was totally deceived by the seller, who gave us the letter, we signed via DocuSign and assured us that since KB Homes was canceling we would have our refund including from Studio Galleries and that it would take approximately 3 to 4 weeks to receive the refund, which did not happen and of course salesman does not answer us.
We contacted KB corp, and to our surprise we were informed that we are not entitled to anything, KB canceled it, said that we do not qualify and they still stole our money, this company is to be afraid, a real fraud and that not being there for customers or people. This company it's a really scam and they really scam people, we were totally deceived, attended by rogues and people of bad faith, now we lost a house, lost money, and they smile on our face, never recommend for anyone,

Absolutely tried to prey on me, and I'm quite convinced they pulled my credit without my consent to get their manager to approve their fantastic new offer (magically $500 less per month from their first offer????).

There is not much of an experience when one has to buy a home. Sale personnel want to sell and do their best to try to bring the positives of the house. The buyer is not giving enough time to see the negatives. If I was not in the market urgently I would not have bought this house. Anyone having time, do not go with KB, there are certainly other builders better qualified.

The house itself is pretty good considering it's a track home. The buying process was the negative part for me. There were requirements to prove my taxes were paid by showing a cleared checks, which seemed excessive and unnecessary. There were delays on getting the house due to supply issues. The saleswoman was extremely unhelpful and unresponsive at closing, because I had a issue with an improperly built, unsightly, cheap, last-minute retaining wall that was added. She said she would contact HQ and then I get a text saying she was told to cancel the contract (after I waited 8 months to get my home). A cancellation was even emailed to me. She then refused to respond to and calls or texts I had sent. I had to email and call HQ to get a response from someone.
Plus, the superintendent was awful about the retaining wall he let be built 100% on my property with 14 sawed off metal fence posts and wood boards (he was hoping this girl wouldn't say anything about). He was condescending and rude and told me I should expect better materials to be used because KB is an entry level builder. This house cost me almost 700k. Far from entry level. He also told me that I needed to read the contract because KB can change anything at anytime. Yes, but not with subpar materials in comparison to what's already been used. He said it was debatable if the pipes and wood was subpar (mind you the other retaining wall was made out of cinder blocks). Well I suggested that since KB was taking his stance and I had mine that maybe a judge would have to determine if it was or not and he ended the meeting because I mentioned legal action. Luckily, HQ stepped in and fixed the wall with the cinder blocks and put it on the property line as well and the deal went through.

We have great customer service and have made many new friend during our home buying experience and would buy with KB Home again in the future.

When buying a home with KB Home you will be pleased with the overall finished product, however, the process in achieving the finished product will leave you frustrated. Outstanding delays, lack of communication and truthfulness in regards to said delays (construction and/or loan), and lastly the lack of empathy for their clients. Almost all responses begin with "We're sorry" and ended with "But there's nothing we can do about it." Overall I love my house, but would have almost preferred elsewhere to save the headache.

Nearly the entire home-buying experience with KB Home was smooth and stress-free. Our Salesman kept in contact with us throughout the nearly year-long process and was constantly sending short progress reports and pictures to us via text message. Any questions that we had of anyone throughout the process were answered quickly. The only gap throughout the entire process was with the closing process. Even this issue was resolved by the KB Home staff in an expedited manner. We would certainly have no qualms in building another new home with KB Home.

Our overall experience with KB Home was great. The process from beginning to end was extremely smooth and streamlined for us as the buyers. Our KB Home team was amazing. They were reliable, trustworthy, comforting and prompt with everything in their control. 2021 was a crazy time to jump in and purchase a new build home but, it was the time for us. Even with unexpected shortages, the pandemic, and odd circumstances our experience with KB Home was amazing. We wouldn't have asked for this process to go any better even in those conditions. Thank you to our superintendent, Rob, as well as all of our KB family. We love our home!

I have been a homeowner before but I have never purchased a "new home". The experience was quite intimidating for me but everyone that I worked with from sales to design center to construction to after I moved in, has been amazing. They helped keep this single mom feel secure in the decision that I made. I have friends that have bought from other builders and I have heard horror stories. It took 1 year and 10 days from contract to close, but that was based on market conditions, nothing KB Home could control. During that entire time Cheryl, Mark and Brady were so wonderful about keeping me informed every step of the way. The design center was also very overwhelming as I'm at home looking everything over trying to decide what I wanted, needed and could live without since I was on a budget.
My first meeting with Mallory was on a virtual call. Right there she took away 90% of the stress I was feeling. We listed what I wanted and I spent the next couple weeks prioritizing what was and was not a "have to have". I then met with Mallory at the design center. She took me through all the steps and never made me feel pressure to add anything that I did not feel was important. She gave great advice on coloring, what would and would not work together. I'm not an artistic person so her help was well received. In the walk thru there were minor things that needed to be resolved. Most have been corrected and a few are on "back order". But again, that is a result of our market place. I've now been in my home about 5 weeks and I cannot be happier. I feel like I'm at home.

I had a great experience. I am grateful with everything from the start to the end. I would highly recommend KB Home to friends and family, they provided great service with clearness. Since the start I was recommended with this company. I had great hope in it since it had come from a close friend. I had great expectations in which they were filled. Now that I can be in my house I can express myself with my own words what I went through from the start of pre-construction till the end. With my experience I can predict that they will help many family in which they will to a great good at. I know the new challenges, technology, and many more advanced things that they will be able to keep up with. Thank you and congrats to KB Home for their work.

Make no mistake that KB sells and builds lots of homes. KB just doesn't finish them worth a damn. Poor quality work from contractors due to lack of oversight are pawned off as warranty items. We still can't wrap our arms around the fact that multiple representatives at KB thought this home was actually ready for close. Weeks and months of inactivity and consistency created issues that KB attempted to address at the last minute. KB blames the subcontractors and the subcontractors blame KB. Nearly 2 months after closing and attempts to get those issues addressed timely and accurately has turned into a run around. Have had multiple contractors not show up to repair/replace work that KB scheduled and KB has been horrible at communication about that. This home was sold. It was clear that is all KB Homes really cared about. I thank KB for wanting a fair and accurate survey from us.

Very unsatisfied with their lack of consideration for buyers who incur the situations we did after purchasing our home. You don't get 100% satisfaction from a homebuyer when their issues are brushed aside after signing contract and not trying to rectify any deficiencies that present safety issues because it may cost a little more to remedy the situation.

The overall homes are good for the price but note all issues on walk through and DO NOT close until they fix everything. Be sure to get a good home inspector and do things you wouldn't think of such as sit on toilet to ensure it does not rock, look at door height, check ac actually works, lawn is properly installed etc.

KB Homes is amazing to build and buy with! They showed us a wide selection of options within and outside of our budget to see differences of course and what we do and don't want. While also making sure we stay within what we could do which was awesome. They showed us great examples digitally and in person of what you can do with all their home layouts. They go over the whole process from beginning to end as far as expectations and do's and do not's which were highly appreciated.
Considering that we were first time home buyers and weren't even considering building or buying until we came just to look at the model home site with a friend who had recently built a home with KB as well in the Jarrell community. We were nothing but impressed. Of course building supplies were high in demand so the process took a lot longer than expected at certain points, but getting the freedom to choose every single aspect and setup of the house from their thorough layouts was to say the least my favorite thing about building with them. I especially loved that we could drive out to the home site often to check the process while also receiving frequent photo and detailed updates from our sales agent. We highly recommend and we are 1000% satisfied with our new home! Thank you KB!

KB Homes offers beautiful layouts and customization options. But I feel they are a bit overpriced. They force you to go with their lender to take advantage of their "incentives" but will still give those to you if their lender can't get you approved and you get approved through an outside lender. Which makes no sense. Some of their customizations options are way overpriced. They set closing dates that they can't fulfill. Our original close date was 12/15/21 and we didn't close till 4/6/22. We had too many delays and the communication of those delays were very poor. The KB lender gave us a decline on our final approval when our close date was 30 days out. Our KB Lender associates Joel ** & Angelica ** ghosted us and didn't return our multiple efforts to contact them to see what we could do to get an approval.
We ended up going with an outside lender and they made it happen for us. When we moved in the house it still needed work done, like sloppy texture and paint spots, gaps in flooring, shaky paint lines, off-centered toilet, poor quality sod, dented fridge door, etc and it's an inconvenient process to contact the project manager to fix them. We've lived in our home for a month and a half and things are still not all resolved. Our Salesperson Sheryl was great! So was Shannon our Studio designer. Would we build another KB home again? Never! Are we happy that we got the that house we designed? Of course! But with all the bumps, bruises and stress we've had to endure, is why we would never do it again. I just can't wait till our house is 100% complete and we can just enjoy the sunsets!
