K Hovnanian Builders

As a military veteran coming home from overseas I took a few months to buy. So I could look around and find the perfect house, I wish I would have seen this site and knew what I know now. First with a VA loan they demanded earnest money which I never had to pay on my 1st home. 10g is a lot but they agreed to reduce to 5g which is still against my better nature. The communication between the loan office and myself with my realtor varied and wasn't 100% positive or reliably fast.

I bought a KHOV home three years ago in Arizona and my A/C unit is severely undersized and we sweat every summer and the temperature gets below 80 degrees only after midnight. We reached out the builder and the HVAC company who installed it for last few years and the only statement we get back is everything is working as per design. We ended up replacing the AC for 10K to have a better experience. I would strongly recommend to do your home work before purchasing another KHOV home.

Hi, I was in contract for an investment property in Casa Grande, AZ that was built by K HOVNANIAN Builders and as usual the sales person tied a $10,000 incentive to the house if I used their KHOV Mortgage Lender. The KHOV Mortgage Lender experience was a total disaster. On the day of closing they pulled from the loan and did not bother to call back to discuss the matter. They did full ssn, income verification and credit checks and did not find anything wrong with my case until the last day where out of the blue the main loan officer Corey ** said he had to restructure the loan and after that he did not bother to discuss the issue. They were about to make me sign loan docs and get it notarized and then they would have said it was null and void. The notary was at my house and I was about to sign the paperwork and then they changed everything.

Purchased new home site Jan.2020 paid 192k deposit. Requested to revise Palm Beach County bldg permit to include a home featured in this community with 600 sq.ft. extra. Request denied by salesman so I wrote to Ara K Hovnanian President and CEO at 90 Matawan Rd Matawan NJ 07747. Letter was delivered by Fed Ex and signed for by P.**. No response from from Mr. Hovnanian, he referred back to salesman to contact me. No ground broken or work started and Palm Beach County Bldg Dept stated they do revisions all the time. Suggested I contact an attorney for a resolution.

The home is beautiful with a lovely floor plan and great aesthetic look until you live in it and realize there are material quality issues. The paint chips with the slightest nick. They only used one coat and the baseboard wood easily breaks and splinters if pictures falls off a wall. The plumbing is plastic. Pull flowtime valves and 2 of my 4 toilets have sprung a leak at where the main water goes into the tank because the hose connection to the tank went bad. You have to replace the entire valve and hose as they are one unit and you can't just replace these cheap plastic plumbing units hoses for a new better hose.

Signed contract late Saturday night, wanted to cancel on early Monday morning and told that we couldn't cancel without losing our money. We lost 9,500 dollars and we're told ** by Khov. Do not buy from them.

You'd think that the regulators would be all over this. They in fact briefly outlawed the practice, but quickly reversed themselves since we live in a interesting republic where powerful corporations are free to ... their customers while your government stands idly by. However with knowledge you can save yourself and avoid getting into such an arrangement.

My husband and I were in the process of buying a home and were in escrow after we jumped many hoops to even get to that point. All was going fine until the Covid-19 virus and KHovnanian lender no longer wanted to fund us and we found out (only because we called them to check the status of the loan) that they had transferred our loan to another company because they were no longer able to help us. So now, we had to start the whole process from start pretty much and jumped to other hoops just to find out that we still could not be funded.

If you make the mistake of contracting with K Hovnanian for a new build, I strongly suggest you hire a third-party Inspector and ensure they inspect at every milestone. You may very well find an incorrectly spec’d HVAC which will cause your upstairs to never get below 78 degrees in the summer. Ensure the Inspectors confirm the outlets won’t trip fuses when you plug in the vacuum cleaner. Also, make sure the builder uses the correct sized nails on the roof or it will fail during the first windstorm like mine did. I called K Hovnanian because it was under the warranty period and they refused to assist, even after the subcontractor that I hired gave me the nails that the builder used and showed me the correct sized nails that should have been used….

I entered into a contract with this developer on Jul 2019, For a home located in Four Seasons Parkland. A adult +55 community. During this 9 months I have visited the home site several times, always to find serious Health issues, first an infestation of bird feces on the frame, there were always bird nests and feces all over the beams, before they closed the ceiling and left them there to die, I found the floor was laid on top of the animal feces and remains. It is disgusting. On top of that the amount of garbage from workers eating on-site left unclear to spoil is just unbearable. I am concern about the animal feces in AC vents can be a health issue to my family. This builder definitely has many health and sanitary issues, I have read other complaining of the same at other homes. If you still decide to buy from them, Be very careful to walk in to a health hazard for your family!
