I know the secret of KB's success, It can be explained in 2 words - "KB's Staff". At every step in home buying process everyone from Sales till Warranty staff is awesome. Each one knows what exactly they are doing and how to do things at best level. Everyone is perfect in their respective field. I just made a decision to go with KB Homes but your staff proved that the decision was perfect.

KB thrive to deliver the state of art home to the customer. Our overall experience is great on staff and quality of the home. There are a few area that needs to be improved but KB showed to us in the past is way better than we are expected. We hope that KB continue to grow in the market and we hope to buy another home with KB in the near future.

All functions of the staff were very professional. Although they were busy with sales and construction teams responsible for multiple KB Home sites we felt they did care about our experience and were as responsive as they could be. We did hold back a bit regarding the timeliness of items but they are addressed in the survey.

The overall process from start to finish went better than expected. Buying our first house was the most stressful thing we both encountered in life, but everyone we worked with made it so much smoother for us and really guided us when we had questions or concerns. I'm glad we got to work with the amazing people KB has under them and we couldn't be happier with our beautiful home and neighborhood we live in. Everything in life has hiccups/problems but what is most remembered is how it got dealt with in the end and that's what we truly appreciated about Mauricio. We felt he went above and beyond to help us correct everything we had concerns with. He's truly an amazing person! Thank you all so much for this experience!

Thank you, KB Home for staying on your principles and practices of providing affordable housing to our communities in the Austin metro areas and elsewhere. Best of all, at least to my knowledge, unlike some other home builders, KBH didn't mix investors with primary residences together and asking for bids. That's the best part from KBH. Keep it up!

As new homeowners, KB Homes made the home buying/building/designing/financing less daunting for my Wife and I.

We bought our KB Home in a very tough and expensive market. For a new build in our area it really was a great deal. We financed through the builder which made for a very easy process when it came to buying the home. The design center was amazing and we loved being able to customize our home with the finishes and upgrades we wanted. We made the decision to go over budget with those in order to design the home we really wanted to live in. Our consultant was so helpful in explaining what would add resale value while still fitting the aesthetic we were looking for. In all, we were pleased with our home even after it was delivered 6 months delayed (weather, Covid-related delays, etc.).

They have a wonderful team to help you build your dream home. Buying a brand-new home compared to buying older homes has its upside but it also has a downside. You need to factor in time and patience with the Home Building. But you get a brand-new home, comfortable and customized to your own needs and wants afterwards. With the crazy market right now and in the middle of a pandemic, I never thought I could buy another home, in a good location and priced right. It really makes to have a good team on your side. My Sales Consultant, Girlie was heaven sent. I could text her, email her and call her anytime. She's very attentive and responds to my queries in a timely fashion. I'm glad I have her on my team.

I would not recommend a KB Home to anyone based on my experience. They have a lot of quality control issues, the companies they contract trades to are lazy and do subpar work, and there is a lack of supervision. It is a shame because the building materials they use are great and they really go out of their way to use quality products with some items. On the other side though, they cheap out on some items that they really shouldn't have. However, good products mean nothing if they are installed poorly. Additionally, KB advertises that they offer an appliance warranty for the first year when they do not. They do not offer any warranty on appliances; you must register the product for the manufacturer warranty. A MANUFACTURER WARRANTY IS NOT A KB WARRANTY.
We have not been living in our newly constructed house for a month yet and we have had so many issues, plus the dishwasher does not work and you have to deal with the manufacturer warranty rather, KB warranty or simply replacing the defective item. If you do decide to get a KB new construction, get a home inspection done before closing, and do not close if there is anything they need to correct. Force them to make you a priority. On the bright side, however, at least I am not my neighbor because his windows are suffering.

Seamless. Quality. Attention to detail. Family. This has been the best home building process, from beginning to end, that we could have hoped for. Our friends building homes only had horror stories to share about the Jacksonville builders they were using- we had none of those issues. Our home building process was stress free- in spite of so many places being backlogged and materials on backorder- KB Home came through and set realistic expectations and had minimal setbacks from outside vendors. We even received emails from the CEO explaining any large ticket items that were not only affecting Jacksonville builders, but builders across the US. That's what I call leadership from the top down to make us feel like family and not just a paycheck. I would work with this team again in a heart beat!

My overall experience with KB Home is 100% satisfaction. In fact, I consider myself a lucky first time home buyer to purchase a KB house. I was fully supported and helped through the buying process by sale agent Joshua **. He was super responsive and always so courteous, patient, understanding and supportive. During pandemic time and short supplies time, John ** and his KB construction team had to work with greater effort to deliver me the house in estimated time. They truly aimed for customer's satisfaction, did all the needed communication and work to fulfill requests and eliminate concerns. The workmanship was at top quality. The exterior and interior designs are wonderful, especially with all the smart appliances and pre-set systems for future technologies, also with the air control system that was designed for local climate. I can't be any happier.?
Beyond my expectation was the house warranty and customer services that KB provides after the closing date. Martin ** and his team is always one text away. They are willing to fix anything and answer any concern. It is really an important service and a super big help for me to start living in this new home confidently and free of worries.?

We were able to visit the house a lot and see it get built from the ground up! Now that it is done, it's so beautiful! Very well made and we couldn't ask for anything else.

I am coming up on my 2 year anniversary since signing to purchase a new home with KB Homes on 12/31/2019, New Years' Eve, will never forget because of the importance of the date. Everything was going smoothly until about 1 month before closing in June. As we all know lockdowns because of Covid hit in March 2020 and I eventually got laid off work towards end of May with a closing date on my home of mid June. I thought, this close to the closing date it should not be an issue as I had been told they verify your work earlier in the process but I am assuming because of Covid, this time they were verifying right before closing. Now I could have done a few shady things here but I was honest to them about it and told them that I had been laid off but I still wanted to move forward with the purchase.
KB Homes really had nothing to lose here, I was financing with them, I was giving them a 20% down payment on the property which even if I were to default that would put them in a good position where they will not lose money even if the housing market were to crash. But even with that they did not allow me to proceed with the purchase to "PROTECT" me...
It is still a year and a half and I am still going through a depressive state because of this. There was no reason for not allowing me to complete the purchase. 20% down, at the time the government was giving out ridiculous unemployment benefits that almost matched my salary without working that would more than cover for house payments and more. But for them they saw an opportunity to sell the price at a higher price. I bought my house for $300k fully upgraded and as soon as they took it away from me they sold it for over $330k as new building stopped for a bit because of the lockdowns and there were individuals who got stuck without their build not even starting. I would not be surprised if they offered my house to one of them as my house never even went back into the market.
Eventually, I got employed again in September, but by that time home prices had gone up substantially, for reference the home I purchased at $300k, could be sold for about $370k by the end of 2020. Moving forward to now, and the home is valued at way over $400k. Being conservative, let's say $400k even though it is closer to $450k. KB homes cost me $200k so far, not only did I lose out on the $100k on the home, I am still without my first home and a similar house is now going to cost me about $100k more with interest rates in the same level as when I locked my interest rates in back when I purchased.
I was hoping the market would calm down a bit but it has not happened and as I see everything that is going on it just does not seem it will. These are now the prices for homes and who knows when will I now have the opportunity to purchase my first home. So, thank you KB Homes, thanks for "looking out for me" and "protecting" me, I will never forget.

As a first time home buyer, I could not have imagined a better experience! Everyone I worked with from KB was excellent and ensured I was informed and comfortable with each step as I went through this process.

I'm leaving this review so that others will think twice before using KB. My first home building experience was in the Midwest with another company. KB doesn't even come close. KB - Harbor Pointe Community, California. Sales Experience: Our experience was OK, but others in the community have stated that they were mislead or lied to by their sales' representative with respect to certain home and community features. Design Studio: KB only has 1 design studio session, which isn't enough. They rush you to pick your selections, and the selections they have are pretty cheap.
Construction Process: This is where it all fell apart, due to a poor construction manager, who was eventually let go. KB only has 1 walkthrough during this phase, which again isn't enough. We happened to stop by the site a few weeks before closing, and we noticed a major architectural problem. The open stair/rail system we had asked for was not installed. It was completely drywalled in! If we hadn't stopped by when we did, we would have moved into the home with that. They had to tear it all down and rebuild. This is something that should have never been missed. I believe KB buys used/damaged products as well, and then tries to have their contractors fix those issues before you move in.
* All 3 bathroom countertops were damaged. There were scratches horizontally and vertically across the slabs. KB had contractors come out to buff it out after we moved in.
* Bathroom shower stall had a big gaping hole in it. Again, a damaged product that KB buys, installs into your home, and then have their contractors fix it before you move in, trying to make it look brand new.
* Bathroom tub. Upon first use, we noticed it took a day to drain? Contractor comes out, opens up drain cap, and finds sawdust and all other sorts of material in the drain. He's like how does this happen? KB! Unreal, again, very sloppy.
* Central AC was not wired correctly, as you could not engage the fan while keeping AC and Heat off. You can use the fan to circulate air in your home. The contractor tried to tell me that's how it works and after finally getting the point across to him, he found the wiring issue in the attic. I don't understand how they can hire such uneducated people and have those people lie to client.
* Painting. I've never seen such a sloppy job. No attention to detail. I used paint people's homes and a few commercial buildings while in college and I would never paint anything like KB does. Example, in another bathroom, there was paint all over the light fixture, but it was conveniently rotated to the back. Another thing I had to take down, scrap and clean.
* Glue all over laminate floors that were installed.
* When we moved in it was completely filthy/dirty. When we moved in the home of the previous builder, it was immaculate and they had a bottle of wine in the kitchen for us. KB left us trash.
Construction Manager was a no show to our 30 day walkthrough after moving in. He was fired a few months later if I remember correctly. There was no electrical walkthrough to discuss placement of outlets, etc. In the one bathroom they placed the light switch BEHIND the door. Who does that?? KB needs to have more walkthroughs and slow down the construction process. They need to stop buying damaged products and install them into the home. They need to hire contractors that are sober, educated and actually care about quality
Warranty Service: This was 50/50, we submitted many requests. I feel for our rep, none of this is his fault. I can't imagine the number of complaints he has to work through, and after speaking with the members in the community, it was really bad. One thing I didn't appreciate was having contractors come out that could only speak Spanish. I told him to leave because I can't communicate with him. Please think twice and thrice before going with KB. And feel free to reach out to me directly on any questions you might have about this review.

When we started our home buying experience with KB Home we were a little leery. We had been house hunting for a couple of months. We even had a contract on a home and when the house was inspected we found out several things that were hidden. Our first surprise was the price of the lot in reference to the size. We selected a beautiful lot at a fraction of the cost of similar lots of the same size. It was very easy to qualify for the build. The builders worked very hard to complete the house once it was started. We even drove by at times to take a look when we thought no one would be there like on a Sunday or when it was raining but most times there was still someone working. When the house was completed it was even more beautiful that we had imagined. The house just flows from the landscaping to all through the house. The general construction and all the hidden features make KB Home number one in my opinion!

I love the location and neighborhood of my home and that is the reason why I went with KB Home. I would suggest to pay attention at every step of the construction process and pay for a private inspection prior to closing on the home (even though it's a brand new home, mistakes are made). The quality of the work and materials could be better. Also, don't shy away from shopping around for a better rate other than KB loans.

KB did a great job overall on our home. We are very pleased with the way the sales staff and construction staff helped us walk through this process. We do wish we had a few more upgrade options especially when buying a home in this price range. We also wish they would allow us to "customize" the home a little more by having higher quality options such as windows, interior woodwork, interior insulation, etc. But overall we would definitely recommend this KB home and we are very happy with our home.

As a Realtor and previous new build homeowner, I can honestly say that KB exceeded my expectations. Especially during Covid, when we knew to expect delays due to backordered items, our home was completed very close to the original date, and was given a final walk though date well enough in advance.

My sales rep was very polite, caring and the reason I signed with KB. The complete experience from start to finish was not as exciting and happy as I started out thinking it would be. I understand that sometimes there are things that may not be able to be controlled when building a home and dealing with contractors, the city, warehouses and suppliers on a large scale. However, I think that keeping your home buyer informed accurately and often should be a priority. I think that KB Home dropped the ball where that is concerned. I like my home, but I do think that a lot of the construction materials used for the building of the house could have been of better quality. The appearance of my home is beautiful, but there are some underlined issues that I do need to fix.

If KB would like to receive a 10 then they should take us back to the beginning of this whole process and be honest up front. Be honest about the real cost of the home and let us know that almost everything you would expect in a new home is really an upgrade and will cost a lot of money. Be honest and say that we really won't get a brand new home but a damaged one because of poor construction. Be honest and say that they really don't care about our satisfaction, they only care about taking our money. Be honest and say that we will receive terrible customer service after closing on the house. Be honest and say that they will rush closing and rush construction and slap the house together as quick as possible. Be honest and say they KB does not care about the customers or even its own reputation. All they care about is making as much money as possible on the cheapest product they can provide.
