It’s been great having our 1st new home. We did have a few construction concerns at first but KB responded to a survey that I completed and addressed the big issues and for that we are happy.
KB Home responded:
Hi Chris, thank you for this feedback on your experience. Let us know if we can be of any assistance at CustomerRelations@kbhome.com. Enjoy your home. – Brian

From start to finish it was a pleasent experience. I would suggest KB homes to use better quality products to compete with other builders.

The experience overall was good, there were some issues with the home after it was built. One of the big ones was the home being properly sealed.

How unready this house was to move in to. They are still coming out to fix stuff. Some of the people coming have even said this should have been done before I moved in. On a good note KB has done an excellent job of repairing or changing things.

Not following up with issues that we where told would be addressed after 2 weeks of closing. Just to name a few. Air in our kitchen hot water faucet thus causing extremely low presure,pressure, the sod that had major issues due to lack of KB watering prop

Not a great experience

Closing date was changed several times. No exact dates. After the closing construction crew didn’t do what they had promised to. Hard to get in touch with them. No incentives or anything. No proper house gift from sales rep compared to other builders.

Slow Start, then Fast After
- Abraham C.

This could've just been the whole housing market in 2021. Four months after signing, our home was still a dirt pile. But weeks later, foundation was poured, the structure went up fast & filled in soon after. The default paint may scrape off easily in places, but everything else has held up well. Maintenance staff has been helpful around the house too.

Working with KB staff was great. Every person from sales, to studio, to construction was great. In fact, I had no complaints at all until we moved in. There are several cosmetic issues in our home which could/should have been taken care of before we closed but we were on our 7th closing date and just couldn't wait any longer. Annoying things like paint on the carpet to more significant things like large gaps between the siding and top of the windows which I've already had to address personally. The only thing keeping me from a 5 star review is the lack to attention to making every detail ...

I have a few issues that have been identified, but it's not fair to comment due to the covid-19 state that we are in. I've been advised that only emergency issues will be attended to. That being said, I can't honestly comment on what they can't do. Until I know what they would do with my outstanding concerns. These are only preliminary responses, but not final.

Lacks New House appeal
- Sushil K.
- Verified HomeBuyer
- December 29, 2023
- Austin, TX
Personally I am happy with the staff and the responsiveness. But overall the Community doesnt have a new house appeal. When you look from outside, there is a big difference between the New houses from other builders (for e.g HeadWaters) and K.B Homes. K.B Homes needs an upgrade with it looks. I bought it here because I had no other option for new Construction. There are limited option in Upgrades and most of them are outdated. Totally dissatisfied with Home Pro. They do not know anything about Customer Service. I would have given 4 Stars even with limited options for Upgrades. But I gave 3 ...

Rush to complete

There was a rush for me to take possession of the home. The builder could have spent a couple more months. There are many that are not working properly - the walls "flake" very easily, Do was off kilter, water doesn't come out to some of taps, the kitchen faucet is already loose, the cable plus are in strange places....I was promised a fan for the KB Home design studio experience .... never happened....I would not buy another KB Home.
