KB Home KBH

Company Overview

KB Home is a U.S.-based residential homebuilding company operating primarily in the homebuilding and real estate development industry. The company designs, builds, and sells single-family homes, townhomes, and condominiums, with a strategic emphasis on made-to-order homes that allow customers to personalize floor plans, features, and energy-efficient options. KB Home’s core revenue is generated from the sale of newly constructed residential properties, complemented by land development activities.

The company primarily serves first-time buyers, move-up buyers, and active adult segments, positioning itself around affordability, personalization, and sustainability. A key differentiator is KB Home’s long-standing focus on energy-efficient and environmentally responsible construction, including homes designed to meet or exceed ENERGY STAR and other recognized standards. Founded in 1957 as Kaufman & Broad, the company expanded nationally over several decades and rebranded as KB Home in 2001, reflecting its evolution into a consumer-focused, design-driven homebuilder.
