    Best Customer Service - They will see to any issues that arise naturally during a build and make sure you are 100% satisfied. Not as much can be said from friends who had other builders. KB Home stands by their product and quality. Impressive.

    From selecting the site and floor plan to the final walk through, the KB Homes staff was professional, knowledgeable, and very accommodating. The quality of the home is excellent, we saw the materials used to build the home from the ground up and were impressed with the craftsmanship and the overall fit and finish of the final product. We heard some negative things about KB that really worried us, but our experience and our beautiful new home clearly demonstrate that KB is a name that we can trust with the biggest financial decision of our lives.

    This was our first time building a home. People we told warned us that we would never want to build again, or that it would be a nightmare process. However, at the end of the process we have both been more than satisfied with the experience. We got what we wanted and it was far from the nightmare friends warned us about. The KB staff was helpful and our new home is wonderful!

    Our experience was great. KB Homes worked with us on making changes and trying to get everything just right. We are extremely happy with our home. Kristen in the design center was extremely patient with us and so nice, and we couldnt have asked for anyone better than Johnny! He went above and beyond what we were expecting. Mark, the warranty guy, is also wonderful and so helpful. The only negative thing we have to say is that the caulking could be better. It seems that a cheap product was used because it is already separating everywhere in the house.

    KB Homes was great! - Almost everyone was pleasant and knowledgeable. Had a bit of trouble with the closing and person at closing. Due to Harvey my closing date, even though on their books, apparently was NOT the closing date. They need to figure this out much better and communicate. They told both agent and construction manager that I was closing on a certain date but when I called to confirm (they hadn't told me) she said I wasn't closing on that date. It was a horrible mess.

    The price range is what led us to buy a KB Home but you get what you paid for. They are the Ross of home builders. The simple things you would think comes with the home (i.e. porch light, cable/phone plugs) are all upgrades which adds up. The quality of the final product is subpar. We moved into a brand new home with the air conditioner and dishwasher broken! We couldn't move in at our final walkthrough because there were so many issues with the home we used all of the blue tape to mark everything off. But as I said, you get what you paid for. In the end, I would not do it again and pay a little more for better quality. They do have good customer service but the quality of the product needs some work.

    The Stearns Lending (preferred lender of KB Home) was the worst I have ever dealt with, lack of communication, when the manager got involved (after I got mad enough to finally have the processor get me the number) she knew about as much as I did about where my loan was in process. "She wasn’t allowed in her employees files” and in the end they couldn’t tell me why my monthly payment was a $150.00 more a month.

    I want to start off by saying the staff was very helpful until the week before closing. I went through the house and marked all the issues that needed to be touched up. Did they fix most of the things but just pulled the tape off on the rest. So they said they would get it fixed after closing since they need to meet their deadline. It took time to get them over to fix things and to the point that I had to constantly follow up with them and on occasion even call the contractor myself after the customer service person (not so much of a customer service rep) to get it fixed. I did fill out the customer service serve and even though I put all this in the report, no one contacted me from the corporate office. I was promised a garage door opener if foreman got high marks for his part. Not knowing that it was combined from all departments. He didn't get the highest marks and I wrote a email his boss.

    So now a year later I was ask to fill out the same form again and the customer manager would use the “KB dollars” he would get to do extra things to my house. I informed him that if I would fill out the form he wouldn’t get the high marks due to anything being done since I submitted the first serve. The customer service manager said he would have someone from the corporate office contact me. I did finally get a call from someone and they listened to me and all the issues. He said that he would have the different departments contact me regards to all my challenges I had with the process. I have yet to hear from anyone from KB Home.

    My house is being built and is approaching completion. It seems that KB Home didn't study the home plan before building. I wanted to extend the driveway in front of the garage for 3 feet. They did it then they said the city of Austin didn't approve it, so there's an interstice between the driveway and the extended part. I just wonder why they didn't ask for city approval before doing it? Since then, I never feel safe when it comes to their construction. I went to the house every other day to check if there's anything wrong. Sadly, more problems came. They forgot to build the arch in front of the den, I asked them and they are now fixing it. They also made TWO walk-in closets in a small bedroom while there's no closet in the master bedroom. And now they forgot to run electrical wire on the ceiling for 4 dimmable lights although I did upgrade it in the contract.

    They really piss me off! Do they think I would not remember what I upgrade so they can pass it easily?? Or do they just care about money, not quality?? I'm really afraid of the quality of this house. KB does so many things wrong, but I can check them out and ask KB to fix. BUT what about something inside that unobservable?? I know they had a bad reputation in other states. I hoped they'd be better now. However they made me so disappointed! CAN I FEEL SAFE WHEN LIVING IN A HOUSE WITH A LOT OF TROUBLES LIKE THAT?? I'll cancel the purchase if they keep making mistake like this! Can't stand anymore!!

    Where do I start, well let's start with home design studio. They show a bunch of products that are told to be installed in your house to find that was to not be true. Like the fact they use the cheapest and lowest end products available. Just to give a quick background, I have been in construction since I was 15. I had to stop building on my house due to the poor craftsmanship and lack of quality. Spoke to the Regional boss and she laughed at me over the phone (complete disrespect). Had to replace most of the items in the house due to plugs catching on fire, cheap garage door opener, breakers undersized and too many outlets on one circuit (14) and lights on one circuit.

    My roof was "repaired within the first year and was told it was (2) loose tiles". Roof has been leaking for (2) years now. When hurricane Harvey blew through the water damage ruined my little girl's bedroom. (No other damage was done, we just had a lot of rain). It was denied by my insurance company for poor craftsmanship and improper installation. The roofers came out and said it was leaking from a nail that was still in place. Guess what? It is still leaking. Oh and the insurance company I use was from KB homes. It's been over a month since the last report and they still cannot seem to get this fixed. If anyone can help, it will be greatly appreciated. I am meeting with a lawyer either tomorrow or the following day. This is just one of the issues with my house and there are countless other issues with the houses in the neighborhood.

    Also after you buy your house they constantly call for you to rate them. I gave them a one across the board and every time they would fix one item they would call back and ask if I would raise my review score which never changed. If you want a lot of run around and broken promises, then this is the company for you to build your home with all your hard earned money.

    If anyone wants I have tons of pictures, text messages and emails. Just take a look at the header that is partially being supported by a piece of 2X4. The damage to my cabinets from being ripped out (3) times to build my kitchen right. Also the duct for the vent hood must not be sealed right due to the stain starting to show at the top of my ceiling. Had to reset every toilet in the house due to poor installation. All the CAT5 for phones or data usage, the ends weren't installed correctly. I can keep going but it's just making me that much more upset and angry. Also mold is starting to grow in the room.

    This is a review to share my disgust and disappointment with KB Home. I was sold my million dollar home on false pretenses by a KB representative regarding the community. I was looking to buy a nice home, particularly within a nice community. The idea of a new build with a new community sounded appealing, but it has been a nightmare so far. I assumed KB Home would strive to keep the neighborhood aesthetically appealing to help aid the value of our homes, but they clearly don't care as long as their homes are selling. For the past year and a half, 2 commercial vehicles (Budget Blinds) have been parked right at the entrance of our million dollar home community. The homeowner that lives at the entrance owns them.

    When you drive in, you will see a Budget Blinds van parked on the both the left and right side of the street. When buying our homes, we specifically asked about the eye sores and our KB Home representative told us they would not be allowed to keep them there once more people move in and not to worry (untrue). We read the HOA rules and CC&R rules which clearly state no commercial vehicles allowed within community so this sounded accurate. We moved in and immediately complained to the HOA board. Unfortunately, the HOA board consists of 3 KB Home executives and they have done nothing in regards to our multiple violation complaints about the vans. We have complained about this at HOA meetings and we also held an IDR (internal dispute resolution) meeting with the homeowner in violation, but KB Home HOA board members never show up or take any action against the violation.

    We have spoken to attorneys and they are appalled that something so black and white in writing on legal documents is being ignored. The KB execs on the HOA board have been emailed and cannot deny the fact that we are upset, frustrated, etc. but have done nothing to rectify the situation. They will hold their board member seat for another 2 years in my community and they don't even live here. With the 3 of them, they hold majority vote on the board and are stalling us from any further action. This is absolutely disgusting that KB would develop a community with such high priced homes and outline the rules in which the community should abide, but then prohibit any action being taken to uphold the rules. Shame on KB Home!

    Being a potential home owner/buyer I would expect professionalism to be shown across all aspects of the process. When visiting the sea cliff building site and Julie being very courteous and helpful I expected that from the people running the site. I decided NOT to purchase a home from KB due to the way I saw workers being treated. Yes that's correct. When purchasing a home I truly believe quality comes from people being on a job and actually enjoying and taking pride in their work. I witnessed the superintendent named Rory (don't know last name) being rude and condescending to the men who were doing the actual work.

    I felt extremely bad for the man he was yelling at simply because he had set one of his tools on the counter. I understand it's due to scratches and such but I mean to curse and be a complete ** for lack of Better terms was absolutely unacceptable. These guys are doing the actual work while you just boss them around. I was mortified. needless to say I would never purchase a home from a company that condones this type of behavior.

    Our overall experience with KB Home was satisfactory. After looking at the models on February 12, my husband and I signed a purchase agreement for a Reggie model at Olive Lane on February 14. It didn't take us long to decide since we have been looking for homes all over Fresno and Clovis for that size and price range, but every time we came across a model we loved with another builder, we would learn that they had little to no backyard. KB Home offer great lot sizes with ample backyard space. The quality of our home is pretty good (not excellent), considering the construction team took 3.5 months to build from the ground up. There were just minor details with paint and corners that could have been handled better, not deal breakers though and they were easy fixes.

    We most appreciate the construction manager, Scott, who kept us informed and allowed each visit to feel very reassuring. We liked our sales rep, Misty, who stayed honest and candid with us throughout the process. She did rush us a bit in the beginning, which we didn't feel comfortable with because this is our first home-buying experience, but as we approached closer to closing escrow, she became more accommodating and got things done and questions answered for us.

    The biggest downside of our experience was dealing with the preferred lender, Stearns. As mentioned this is our first time buying a home and the loan process is the most nerve-racking part. They had one rep who we just preferred not to work with since she wasn't 100% professional and only answered our questions when it was convenient for her. Everyone else at Stearns, however, compensated for her performance and reassured us once again until the close of escrow. I would recommend KB Home to couples & families on a budget and that already have their own preferred lenders in place.

    I was happy with the community, however the contract/purchase phase sucked. I signed my contract and informed the seller of the one thing I had left pending. They didn't even allow me to complete my financing period, wanted to skip straight to closing 2 wks after I signed. And after sending my lender the ratified contract. Kicking me off the contact yet they took my earnest money when I signed the contract. Total BS!

    I was even foolish enough to fall for applying with their lender thinking it would help acquire the information they were adamantly requesting for no reason because he had to wait on the same thing I informed them on from the start. I signed my contract expecting to be able to close within 30 days but wasn't allowed to. They only want to move their merchandise. They are not really looking for good potential families. They are all about the money and how fast they can move their inventory. So that they're free to move on to the next project.

    I am in my 4th year of problems with KB Homes. Nearly every system in my home (Austin, TX) has had some problem. Thankfully, I haven't had the foundation problems or serious water intrusion problems that were reported in the news. I have never had to move out, just lots of visits to fix things, and you have to beg to get them to do warranty claims. Another thing... The onslaught of positive reviews that appear here starting in late 2016 for KB Home, there is no possible way that they are real. Something is going on. I live in a very small KB Home neighborhood, and I have talked to 20 of 25 neighbors about this, and not one ever said they were satisfied. KB Home is a profoundly and deeply troubled company.

Everything from Windows/Appliances/Roof, you name it. It took almost a year to get most of the items corrected. I paid quite a bit extra for an "upgraded" front door. After a little over a year I noticed several cracks in the door and daylight coming through (middle of the door). I complained - was informed it was my fault due to "negligence" (not sure what that means). I think most people would expect a new door to last for years.

    ****DO NOT BUY A KB HOME! **** Nine months ago, my husband and I purchased a brand new KB Home in Santa Clarita. To achieve our dream and give our children the family home we always wanted ourselves, we saved all that we could, took out from our 401K and LITERALLY invested everything we had into purchasing this KB Home. But it's been nothing but a nightmare. We have written multiple emails to customer service, division president and even the CEO of KB. And they simply reply back that it's within industry standards, and just evading our requests. Our home was built with no care. As we moved to Santa Clarita from Corona, which is a 3 hr drive one way, we were not lucky enough to see our home being built. We had trusted KB in building our home correctly and safely.

    For the past nine months, we have had submitted over 600 claims in defects of this newly built KB home. They have only fixed about 15 of those claims, and some of the "fixed" claims created more damage and more claims to be open. We have even hired a third party inspector to check the structure of our home, as I will attach the report with this letter. Some of the things that were found were absolutely ridiculous. I will mention just a few:

    Our attic isn't even attached correctly. (The metal plates aren't even attached.) They forgot to attach caps on our roof, which may have cause wood rot because of all the rain this past year. There are more than 10 broken tiles on our roof. The brick wall caps are not even cemented down and come right off. There is a 10 point checklist and that was not finished and signed. Missing wood beams on our stairs. The carpet was not installed correctly, every corner is not stapled to the ground and can be lifted out. We found nails, screws, staples and a 9 inch razor blade that my 4year old son found and started to play with. Just last week, I found over 20 birds living under our roof tiles because they didn't close off the corners of our roof. Our flooring downstairs has bubbling throughout the house. Our air conditioning unit had missing screws and it's not even leveled.

    These problems should not be problems at all for a brand new home. Obviously, there was no quality control and their inspector did nothing but pass and sign the inspection reports. As some of the checkpoints were not even signed off, which is why there is so much debris under our floors. I am writing this because it has brought so much stress on me and my family. They treat us with no respect and express that our claims are a joke. Even to fix one claim, they come look at it and tell us to be home on a certain day from 10-3pm, and a vendor will show up and fix that ONE claim.

    I would have to stay home, ask someone to pick up my daughter from 1st grade and later, without a phone call, they weren't able to make it out because the vendor is still working on another home. Another time, our flooring wasn't flushed to the kitchen island and KB sent a man to repair it. It took him 5 hours to "cover" the mistake. They did not even fix the problem but simply just put a mold to cover their mistake and told me again that it was industry standards.

    Five years ago, I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. After the birth of my son, my body seemed to have been overstressed and I was unable to walk. With lots of testings and Dr. visits, we found the cause and treated it right away. I have been stable and healthy with the infusion I get monthly that helps with my overactive immune system. I haven't had any flare ups. However, with all the stress KB has given me, my body seems to slowly be dying. I had a seizure five months ago in our new KB home, landed right on my face in the back yard and broke three of my front teeth. I was hospitalized for 3 days.

    And just last month, I was diagnosed with lupus and celiac disease. My body has exponentially deteriorated. I am a mother of two and weigh only 100 pounds. I now see a therapist two times a week to alleviate my stress. My rheumatologist said that all the stress from KB is exasperating my immune system and more diseases are arising. The infusion I took for years, is no longer working and creating antigens. I now take anti anxiety medicine 3 times a day. From all this, my husband and I pleaded and repeatedly asked them to help us fix all the mistakes. We have three months left until our 1year warranty expires and hardly anything got fixed. I'm terrified for my children's safety, this home, and my body shutting down.

    One day, I was so terrified that I went to the division president's office, pleading/crying to help us out. He didn't even let me enter his office and kicked me out. He said, "I have no time for you!" He told me to leave and never come back. I drove back home crying and devastated. In that time, he had already emailed to my husband, stating that, the next time I come, I will be escorted out and have a restraining order... and a lot more. NEVER BUY A KB HOME.

    I bought a KB home. A few years later I decided to paint the inside. I found that the electrical outlets were held in place by the face plate screw ONLY! The outlet was not anchored or attached to anything, just hanging loose. Also, my home is the same size as the other homes next to me and yet the other houses have 4 heat vents on the roof and my house only has one! I got an estimate from a roofer and it will cost me from $800 to $1,000 to have the other 3 vents put in. Another point, I had a lot of problems with the airflow from the air conditioner. I had the flow tested and turns out I had 5, yes that's right 5 feet of holes in my air conditioning VENTS. I was told that IF actual metal vents were used that it would NOT BE POSSIBLE to have that much holes in the vents. This is insane.

    Regardless of what happened, we love our KB Home. Thank you. Maybe because it is our first time buying a house, our experience came out to be like this. We didn't always have questions when we meet up with the sale staff and when we do, he didn't always have the answer, there was many times he had to get back to us. When we met with the construction staff, we learned a lot about the house and regret a lot about certain upgrades because the sale staff didn't tell us about certain things. Seems like he was more about making a sale.

    But the construction staff was great, (Scott) he told us about everything. Even things we didn't think of, so he was great. Another thing was the loan officer, she was hard to get to when we had questions. It was really hard for my husband because he didn't want me to sign anything before meeting in person, asked our questions, and clarify certain parts of the document. Because this is something very big for us and we wanted to get it right the first time and understand what we are signing for. So because reaching out to her was very hard, it made this process hard for us. We sign documents and wait until there's more things for us to sign. We just thought the loan process would have been a lot different where we are all on the same page on everything. As to everything in life, there are the ups and downs, and for KB Homes, it was an 8 overall satisfaction for us. Last of all, we want to thank KB Home, we love our new house.

    We did our homework online prior to choosing a builder for our home. Then, we visited Falcon Landing while on our honeymoon and were impressed with the location, lots, and sales staff. From start to finish, KB Home delivered what they said they would. The sales staff and construction staff kept my husband and me up-to-date with weekly phone calls and emails, along with pictures, since we did not live locally while house was being built.

    Before you even consider buying from KB Home I would highly suggest you take a drive to Pinery West in Parker CO and see for yourself how pathetic these homes were built. Knock on any door and ask questions. What you see at the model home is NOTHING compared to what you actually receive. The customer service is horrible and the super attendants are unprofessional and incompetent. Phone calls are never returned and they threaten to sue you if you don't close on your home which is a complete wreck and only 75% complete.

    We purchased our home in May 2016 and in December we decided to get screening in backyard so we put in request for HOA permit and also requested them to trim the tree that covers 80 percent of our backyard. The tree is on the builders property. Fast forward February 2017 they sent their landscaping people three times to confirm how much need to be trimmed and we also sent them pictures per their request. They approved and said it will be taken care of. Finally they arrived one day to trim the tree when we were at work. They removed only the dead tree and did not trim the branches over our property. When I contacted them they told that they had miscommunication on their end. How can you have miscommunication after 3 visits and photos.

    Now they don't have budget for trimming the branches that come over our property and basically telling us that they can't help us. I had screening work schedule to begin in March but it's on hold now because of the con artist at KB Home. HOA is telling me that tree trimming is not part of HOA now and you cannot force your neighbors to trim the tree even if it comes on over your property. We never forced the KB Home management to trim the tree. It needs to be trimmed because it is obstructing with screening work and they approved and performed the wrong job so now they are coming up with all the lies and excuses. In addition to this when we moved in we had 10 days to show any damage and get it fixed by KB Home.

    We had cracked bathroom tiles, damaged master room lock and they never fixed it. Guy came and look at the tiles and said they will have to order it. He still didn't receive the tile he ordered and now we are at 1 year bummer warranty. To get hold of someone at KB Home after you purchase the home is almost impossible and forget about credibility. My next home is definitely not going to be KB Home and I made sure my family and friends don't buy from KB Home.

    The concrete in my basement utility room needs to be redone, it is inadequate, nonfunctional and unacceptable to me. My water softener leaked this weekend and due to the shoddy, unprofessional finishing of the concrete in that room, the water was shunted off into the wall which flooded my basement. I am now waiting on the restoration people to come and deal with the matter professionally. None of the leaked water drained into the drain in the center of the room, literally not one drop made it to the drain.

    There is little point in having a center floor drain if the entire room does not slope downwards towards that drain, so the drain can actually drain away the water. I am getting the water softener issue address in a manner where it will not leak again. However I still have a water heater in that room and if there are ever issues with that, the current inadequate and incorrect design will flood my basement and destroy the new furniture I have down there.

    Please call me ASAP to let me know how and when this issue will be addressed. No more water is going to spill into my basement that I have to pay to get properly cleaned up due to your lack of oversight and failure in assessing the finished product of your workers. If the drainage in that room had been tested it would have been immediately apparent that there was a problem. Yet here we are.

    I cannot convey how deep my anger and frustration is over this, there is simply no excuse for this to have happened. None. I have built offices and homes, I recognize shoddy, rushed work done by unskilled workers who care nothing about the quality of their work when I see it. That's what I see when I see the job that was done on the floor of my utility room.

    My fiancee and I bought closed on a KB Home in May 2016. A hose in the kitchen that KB supplied and installed busted 5 months later!!! It flooded the entire house, except for one bedroom and one bathroom! The next day, KB had a few people including their preferred plumber come out to take a look at the damage, and they all stated the same thing... "Yeah, we put this here. It was obviously installed by us. It will be covered under warranty. No worries."

    The following day, two men called me advising the damage was not going to be covered. I was in complete shock! They found every which way they could not to take fault for it because our damages were so extensive. We argued with them for about 5 hours... It got nowhere. They refused to honor their warranty and eventually stopped returning our phone calls. We had to make the decision of getting our homeowners insurance involved because we needed repairs to start asap.

    The home was not livable after that. We could not live there for 2.5 months! KB sent us a letter during this time for a 6th month checkup/survey review wanting to be conducted. We called the number on the letter and the operator stated someone would be calling us back to schedule an appointment to come out and guess what...?? No one ever called back! We called two additional times requesting for someone to call us and still to this day, no one has called. I am extremely disappointed in the way KB has handled this entire situation and I am appalled that they would treat a customer with such ridiculously terrible service. I will never refer a friend or family member to KB ever because I would not want them to have to go through this hell of a nightmare! If I could rate as 0 stars I would...

    I am a second KB Home buyer. I was satisfied with my first purchase and decided to upgrade and get a larger house. I have had this house for 8 years and I am 100% dissatisfied. I started reporting problems the first year while the house was under warranty. The problems continued. I have reported roof leaks that KB did do some repairs on year 3 because they saw some issues with the quality. I reported more leaks and KB did send someone to repair but did repair the inside drywall problems. I have French doors that have been leaking for years into my house and KB will do nothing because it's past the warranty. I have had several contractors tell me that the outside should have an overhang to block rain or snow. KB sent out someone to fix the several leak in my roof. I asked them to look at the French doors and they told me that even if I replace the French doors the problem will happen again within a couple of years.

    The solution is the overhang which KB didn't have in the design. Because of the water leaking into my house I have carpet damage along with the bottom of the door frame rotted. Not only do I have this damage but also cracks in my ceramic tile, stained drywall from the roof leaks, poorly insulated, stucco breaking off. This isn't the only house. I have seen several KB homes having roofs replace and having their house re stuccoed. Houses that are 8 years old and under should not be having to do major repairs.

    I spent almost 400,000 on this house and have a poor quality built house. I strongly would never buy another KB home or recommend for someone else to buy. I asked KB to please fix the problems with my house and they did some repair to my roof but I know if I had an outside company come they would still find more problems. Usually a roof will last for at least 30 years. I can see if I bought a cheap house but I didn't. My previous KB home was a good home and that's why I decided to buy another. If I knew what I do now I would have bought from another builder. If someone could pass this up the ladder to KB corporate I would appreciate it. KB Colorado keep telling me that they will not help me and that I was lucky to receive the little bit of help that I did. If I could get some help especially with the door that is leaking into my house and had ruined my carpet.

    My husband and I bought our home in 2010. Our street was one of the last built in our neighborhood and construction wrapped up in 2011. Shortly after, KB Homes left the state of South Carolina, which made it extremely difficult to contact anyone. We had to jump through hoops to get our 1 year walkthrough completed and have had multiple issues. Our garage door was not installed properly (which seems to be a consensus throughout the neighborhood) and does not work. The linoleum in our kitchen is peeling up and every time I vacuum, a ton of staples come out of our carpet. All of this is frustrating, but the biggest issue involves our neighborhood streets. When KB left the state, they did not properly turn the streets over to the Town. And we have spent over 2 years trying to get the potholes and sinkholes in our roads fixed. Because the roads were still privately owned, the Town could not repair the damage.

    And now our homeowners have received notice from our schools that school buses are no longer going to drive on our streets to pick up the kids for school. The Town has been trying to contact KB for years and KB has done nothing to try to fix the issues, but instead have delayed the process as much as possible. The Town has a bond out for KB Homes and will not be able to begin temporary fixes but will not be able to permanently fix the roads until KB pays the money for the roads to the town. It is all a big mess and we are looking at possibly another year of nearly undrivable roads. It is dangerous to residents and visitors and of course, negatively affects our home values as well. KB Homes does not care and will not do anything to help even though they were the ones who contracted to have the roads put in in the first place.
