 PROFILE
The KB in KB Home doesn't stand for kickin' butt -- but it could. The company (formerly Kaufman and Broad Home), has grown through acquisitions to become one of the largest US home builders. KB Home operates in six states west of the Mississippi, and it expanded into Florida in 2001. More than a third of its sales come from California. The company builds primarily for first-time and trade-up buyers, at an average price of $168,300. Through its international subsidiary, KB Home builds single-family homes, condos, and commercial projects in France. The company also offers mortgage assistance, financing, and home insurance.
