First time home buyer - KB Homes

[Ruth Escobar]

I am trying to buy my first home to live in for some time and then rent out in the near future in Houston, TX. I am looking into a 3,348sft KB Home that was built in 2012. It needs minor repairs (carpet changed, deep cleaning and paint interior). I don't really know too much about houses but a friend of mine mentioned that KB Homes is known for having poor quality construction, or at least in the past. I am trying to see if anyone knows more to this matter? I have tried doing some research but have found people that say that it's poor and others say that it's good. Thought maybe here I could get better answers. Also, if anyone knows an estimated amount for the repairs this house needs could you please share. Thanks!
