KB Home Las Vegas

KB Home – The Builder

KB Home Las Vegas houses are a “great-value-for-the-money” type of builder. As a result, their homes feature practical, well-designed floorplans, as well as energy-efficient features. Know that when you buy a KB Home, plan to spend money on upgrades. Correspondingly, plan on adding money to the base price.

They maintain a lower price per square foot than the competition. To accomplish this, they offer basics, and you pay for design features. You notice medicine cabinets omitted, as well as many homes, come standard with an 8’ceiling. Furthermore, fireplaces, double sinks, vaulted or raised ceilings are all options. In light of this, their philosophy is that you pay for what you want, not what they think you want.      

KB Homes uses many of the same floorplans throughout the city with different prices depending on the vacant land values. The good thing about this is that if you like a floor plan in a community where it is not modeled, we just visit the neighborhood where that home is modeled.

The biggest issue I have with their neighborhoods is that appraisers compare a 2000 square foot house with a 2000 square foot house. For example, if you choose $20,000 in upgrades that your neighbor didn’t choose- if he sells first, your home may get compared to the basic model regardless of your upgrades. A KB Home new construction neighborhood is a great place to buy the lowest priced home on the block or a very upgraded home in the resale market.

Kaufman and Broad Homes In Las Vegas

In 1993 corporate sent management to open a Las Vegas Division. They sold over 200 homes during their first year and 1000 the next. Kaufman and Broad built homes primarily in the North and Northwest parts of the valley while dabbling in the South.

Their biggest competition was Lewis Homes, which built mainly in the Southwest. Both builders provided a good value per square foot. Surprisingly, in 1999 they merged, pleasing the Las Vegas real estate community. Finally, in 2001, they shortened their name to KB Home. 

KB Home is headquartered in Westwood, CA, and has been publically traded since 1986. In the 1990s, KB Homes acquired other builders, including Opnel Jenkins, in 1995 for the NM market and Rayco Homes in 1996 to capture San Antonio. Additionally, California builder Colony Homes was purchased in 2003, allowing them to build over 40,000 homes that year.

KB Homes now builds smart and energy-saving homes in Las Vegas. Moreover, EPA WaterSense fixtures are included in their homes, as well as tankless water heaters and smaller windows. Their mechanical systems are balanced, and rooms are vented for maximum circulation as part of offering a better product.
