Business ProfileforKB Home

I don't want anyone else making the same mistake I did. RUN- don't walk, away from this company! I signed my contract in Dec. 2022 and was originally told that the house would be finished by Sept. 2023. We locked in our mortgage interest rate to avoid rapidly increasing interest rates at that time. Despite being assured numerous times that it would be completed by Sept. I found myself paying $500 to extend my interest rate lock, and we didn't end up closing until Dec. 2023. I should also note, during this time I was forced by KB to pay $650 for an appraisal to be done, that wasn't able to be completed because there was no house built for them to appraise. I was given a million reasons why closing kept getting pushed back: due to Covid, due to labor shortages, and materials were supposedly on backorder. None of those reasons were valid because other houses on that very block (inventory homes) started construction after me, yet somehow finished before me. I didn't want to complain in a public forum because KB did offer some money towards closing as an apology for the issues during construction. However, given the quality of the home and the problems I've faced since moving in, I feel the need to warn you. Presently, I have had so many issues all due to shoddy workmanship. The current, and biggest issue I am facing is that we just had an electrical fire! My oven is luckily under warranty until this upcoming Dec. but we have been unable to use it for the past 2 weeks waiting for KB to send a repairman. He came out today and informed me the reason for the fire was because the person who installed it (KB worker) did not tighten the power cord and the wires were arcing together causing the sparks. There is currently a hole in the back of my oven, soot on my wall, and exposed wires. Luckily that is the only damage, as an electrical fire could burn a house down. Now we wait at least another 2 weeks to hopefully get the issue fixed once parts come in. Would not recommend!
