Will never again buy a KB Home built house

  • Aarti K.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • December 01, 2020
  • Corona, CA

Bought a "model" home. After moving in, I have a huge list of repairs needed and am still unable to use some of the upgrades I paid for. This is my 3rd house purchase, 2nd new construction purchase and the worst home buying experience. I am extremely disappointed with KB Home.

Although I started my home building process at the beginning of Covid, which caused some delays, my experience was great. Everyone was very nice during the process.

Fantastic team of Pros who communicate well and were able to give a homebuyer the attention needed during Covid. Although it took a little longer to get to the build, the home is worth the wait.

Builder did excellent job despite Covid shutdown and some shortage of supplies.

  • Richard K.

  • Spanaway, WA

Having had experience with both spec homes and custom-built homes, KB did an overall excellent job building this home, given the circumstances of the Covid shutdowns. We would have liked more variety in our optional items; and a little quicker response to our punch list needs.

KB Home - The home is very nice but I was disappointed because the bed

  • Angeline T.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • December 01, 2020
  • Fort Worth, TX

The home is very nice but I was disappointed because the bed rooms are very small considering the square footage of the home. I would have rather have a smaller backyard to much larger bedrooms. The masters suite is average and that should be the largest room in the home. One of the rooms is so small until I will have to use it as an office space.

Very poor

  • Eileen M.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • December 01, 2020
  • Santa Clarita, CA

This is the worst builder I have encountered, sales team were fond of canceling transanctions and no considerations at all and end up putting more downpayment just to save the deal and resolved the issue. They will not work for you to make it happen you have to work on them with their expectations.

KB Home responded:
Hi Eileen, I’m very sorry that you’re disappointed with your experience. We would love to have somebody contact you regarding these and any other concerns. Please email us at CustomerRelations@kbhome.com and we will ensure a representative reaches out to you as soon as possible. -Brian
