SAN ANTONIO -- Several KB homeowners confronted the home builder at a Tuesday evening meeting claiming they were decieved about the future of their community.
KB's regional president, Ken Langston, listened to angry homeowners at a meeting called by County Commissioner Sergio "Chico" Rodriguez about what county officials are doing in the area near the Sundance Trails neighborhood, but the meeting quickly changed to into accusations about Langston's company using deceptive business practices.
Company spokeswoman Kathy Teague said the homebuilder is committed to building qaulity homes, and that plans to build smaller homes with garages were scrapped after the community protested. Many customers were demanding the builder buy back their homes, but KB officials said that's not possible, but that they would fix any problems brought to their attention.
Homeowners were complaining about KB bringing in smaller homes that eventually dropped the value of their higher-priced homes.
