Verified ReviewerGourmet Kitchen is NOT offered for 1st phase Meadow View II - Mountain House, California homes
Hi KHovnanian Team, As a last resort I am writing this email on the assumption that KHovnanian as a Builder would give their best to satisfy their customers needs as opposed to just closing on the home as per their target timelines to achieve the end targets they are trying to achieve as a company. I am hoping that this company "KHovnanian" is built on the trust of maintaining Satisfying customers as opposed to meet their targets. I am a property owner at Meadowview II - Homesite 43 (Frame Stage Complete) - at Mountain House, California. I signed my contract in May 2020 (during middle of Covid-19 at its peak) and one of 1st 15 buyers who are expected to close their homes possibly in Oct 2020. I have requested for Gourmet Kitchen option since May 2020 and I was always kept on the hope that the management is trying to get it materialized and was just informed only yesterday 09/02/2020, that this option would NOT be provided to the 1st 15 buyers and is actually going to be available only for the next set of buyers who have only starting signing for the homes after the market has really picked up and after May 2020. Considering I am one of those potential buyers who have trusted KHovnanian would do whatever it takes to keep their customers happy, I was expecting Gourmet Kitchen (I have even agreed to take it with the price tag of $7600 which has been offered to the next set of buyers) to be made available for me even if it needs my home closing date delayed by a month or two, however it was surprising to hear back that NOT providing this option to one of the 1st buyers who had requested this option in the 1st place, it seems KHovnanian builders are communicating to me that you would only get what is shown in the model house and they cannot address the same as they have to meet their target for closing the homes by Oct 2020. I agree there are lots of clauses supporting the builder, but I am not writing this email to look into the legal obligations from both ends, however I am hoping KHovnanian considers their customers are the ones who have built this company in so many of these years with TRUST and NOT the targets they have met in these years. Considering a buyer is ready to pay for the option he requested from Day 1 of his contract and the option is available for possible buyers who are closing after Oct 2020, I am just unable to envision my home without this option being provided. Why can't KHovnanian consider the concerns of the customer like me and delay the closing if need be and address the Gourmet Kitchen option for my property? All it takes is consider your customer as a CUSTOMER as opposed to considering him as your target closing number to be reached. Imagine a happy customer can go a long way in terms of providing the feedback and supporting KHovnanian as a Builder. Note: I have already recommended one of my friend to this builder and he has already signed on the Homesite #51 in the same phase and Imagine being me unhappy, I probably would never even utter the builders name for my next set of recommendations in future. I sincerely hope KHovnanian can go beyond their targets and try to address a customer as a CUSTOMER and support in getting my concern resolved. Awaiting a positive reply with loads of HOPE!!!

Terrible customer service
Moved into home at Affinity Verrado Buckeye Az on August 28th 2020. Electrical outlets in Master bedroom are not working. Missing cover for electrical unit under kitchen sink. Missing screens for windows. Chip in lid of toilet. All these issues have been promised to be fixed but as of today not one fixed. They get your money then ignore you! Have nothing about the HOA. No card to enter the Heritage Pool.
User's recommendation: Don’t buy from this builder!

Warranty on roof
After 7 years I was cancelled by an insurance company because they state my roof was missing "granules" between the shingles. The roof is supposed to be under warranty for 10 years. Khovnanian, through a neighbor, says unless you have the roof inspected every year, Khovnanian will not honor the warranty. No one in neighborhood has heard of this before. Unacceptable! - Khovnanian should send a reminder to homeowners about this "fine print" gotcha clause.
User's recommendation: BEWARWE ! Warn everyone about this fine print.

Update by user Jun 23, 2020
I want to say thank you for your companies help in getting us the Litigation settlement ( some) of the money that was long over due to us. The question I have is how did they come to the amount that they quoted us, from the amount that we actually received?
There is a gap of $1,980.65 from the original amount of $3,780.00. And we did not received a break down of why or how they came to the the total that we received.
Just thinking that's a large amount, is there any way we can get a written break down of why we received what we did ?It was also made a point that I was not to get in touch with a 3rd party, so am I in the wrong for sending this email / letter to you? we have NOT cashed the check, in doing so can we get into trouble?Thank you again,Irene & Manuel Maldonadoreview # 199****

Great home builder. I highly recommend!
I bought my new K Hovnanian home about 7 months ago. It's the best decision my wife and I have ever made. From the sales professionals to the finance to the closing they made the process as painless as possible. I work in construction and after living in our home for several months I'm very impressed with the quality of our home and can't believe the price we was able to get it for. There was 15year old homes in our area that was selling for the same price K Hovnanian sold me my home for. The home was built alittle over a year ago and there is no settling cracks anywhere. The heating and air works perfect and the plumbing and electrical is great. I have nothing bad to say about this experience. Its been incredible!

Major water damage from roof leak - 6 months to fix
Overall they did an ok job. Had TONS of issues they had to come back and fix in year one. The major one was holes drilled through the roof that leaked water so bad it rained inside the house for 6 months. I ended up having to find the leak myself on a ladder in the rain at midnight before they actually tried to fix it. To their credit they did fix it eventually. But the water damaged carpet and blinds were not fixed. I was told they do not reimburse for secondary damages. So I'm out 500 bucks on custom blinds because of their poor workmanship. Really looks bad when you consider it is a 500k home. 500 bucks to fix the blinds would have made this a positive review. Just hard to believe they admit it was workmanship and I had to do all the investigating to get it fixed and now I have brown stained and water damaged blinds to remind me of it everyday. Awesome.

I’d look for another builder
Well where to start. My 1st (CSM) construction site manager was a good guy he was on my side and did a lot of fighting for me so they fired him. My 2nd@***d CSM were a *** all company and screw me. All contractors were subs and are paid by sq footage to do their part so they did minimal cut corners and as fast as possible to get out. They were all out of state workers so they wanted back home ASAP. this was a problem. My house is now nine years old and nothing but problems. 1. Sunken cracked basement floor. 2 mold from a broken water line in the 1st 24hr after signing papers that flooded house. Water ran for 14 hours till we came back next day. 3 windows and doors leak need replaced. 4 many cracks in walls never glued dry wall to studs. 5 int doors do not close. 6 siding falling off. 7 garage floor sloped in not out to driveway problem when cars melt snow. These are my major problems. Many other problems I have fixed. This is a cheap spec home builder not a costume builder like they portray. I fell Ryan would have been a better choice. So disappointed.

I dont know how they can sleep at night
I was a trade partner with Khovnanian. and they tried to cut Corners at any place. the houses are so cheaply made that repairs will be needed within 6 months of purchase. seeing firsthand how these houses are made I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. these homes are not Investments but they are money pits that you will have to repair. as far as the employees that work with Khovnanian. I don't know how they sleep at night knowing that they're selling families homes knowing that they are poorly built.

Great Builder
I recently bought a Home thru KHovnanian Homes in Missouri city and the process was as smooth as it can be under the condition I was buying a home still under construction . From the Sales person Keith who made the process as easy as it can be . He informed us from the beginning of the process that things may or may not happen as we would like but rest assured it will be taken care of prior to moving in and it was. I understood the process of building an both sales and the construction team went above and beyond to make it my dream home without any hiccups or problems that wasn't resolved with my satisfaction in the forefront. Good Job !!

Love my new home
Starting with the salesman Gregory in the Kingdom Heights neighborhood in Rosenberg TX through the closing process with Jodie and malinda and finishing with the walk through with Eric, everything and everyone was incredible. I dont know where all these pissed off people bought their properties at but you almost talked me out of the best buying experience of my life. I have talked to several people in my new neighborhood and they are all very happy with Khovnanian Homes. Im so glad I decided to ignore the bad reviews and by my home in Kingwood Heights.

Not A fan myself and in the middle of a new buildout in Summerville South Carolina. Did you have a walk through prior to closing?
Did you hire a PE or Home Inspection company during the build? I have had 2 issues crop up prior to sheet rock going up..
I'm sorry you are having this experience and pray daily for myself..... I am hiring a PE to manage the build since I do not live near..
