KB Home offers a diverse mix of locations, home styles and design
choices across the greater North Bay area, and is recognized by its
distinct homebuying process, which allows buyers to select their lot,
floorplan, structural options, and décor choices. Additionally, all new
KB homes in California are built to current ENERGY STAR® guidelines and
include WaterSense® labeled faucets and fixtures, meaning they are
designed to be more energy- and water-efficient than most typical new
and resale homes, potentially saving homebuyers money on their monthly
utility costs.

area. To learn more about KB Home, visit www.kbhome.com
