KB Home Reviews in Charlotte, NC

While many of the folks we’ve worked with throughout the buying process (from sales, to design, through building, to closing & post-move in) have been WONDERFUL.. our overall experience has left much to be desired. Disappointed with the quality of appliances - even though we purchased the gourmet option and upgraded appliances). And if you work from home, have kids, or simply enjoy spending time in your backyard… DO NOT buy a lot/home if there will be homes under construction within 7-10 lots in either direction. The trades do not respect homeowners and blare their music all day - and on Saturdays. We have lived here for 2 months and have yet to be able to keep our windows open most of the time. We spoke with the neighbor 3 doors down from us that closed about a week before us - and they said they’ve complained numerous times as well - to no avail. Construction noise is to be expected for sure - but blaring mariachi music is ridiculous. Lastly, not everyone takes much pride in ownership? Lawns are overgrown, weeds. Many folks buy into an HOA community for the pleasant aesthetic and some here just don’t care. I wish we had picked a different community; but fingers crossed that things improve. ... More

While the home is a beautiful home, the journey was miserable. Most issues were handled but the concrete work was poor.

My experience building a home with KB Home has been incredibly frustrating and stressful from start to finish. The construction of my home was delayed repeatedly, with poor and inconsistent communication throughout the process. I was rarely given clear timelines or proactive updates, which made planning nearly impossible. Each delay came with little explanation and no accountability. Because I relocated from Connecticut, these delays cost me thousands of dollars in additional travel expenses. I had to make multiple trips just to check on progress because communication from KB Home was so poor and unreliable. Had updates been transparent and timely, many of these trips could have been avoided. What makes this even more unacceptable is that I was one of the first buyers on my cul-de-sac, yet every home around me was completed before mine. Watching later purchases get finished ahead of my home was incredibly frustrating and made it feel like my build was deprioritized once the contract was signed. Overall, this has been a stressful, expensive, and disappointing experience. Buying a new construction home should be exciting—this process has been the exact opposite. Based on my experience, I would strongly caution anyone considering KB Home to be prepared for delays, extra costs, and very poor communication ... More
