KB Home (NYSE:KBH) today announced the grand opening of La Tierra Reserve, a new enclave of affordably priced ranch-style homes in Southwest Tucson. The community is situated on West Valencia Road just off Interstate 19, providing easy access to downtown Tucson and the area's major employment centers as well as Tucson International Airport. The new community is also minutes away from popular shopping, dining and entertainment at both Tucson Spectrum and The Landings.

"La Tierra Reserve is a new community of our popular ranch-style homes located southwest of downtown Tucson and close to the area's major employers," said Amy McReynolds, President of KB Home's Tucson division. "The community offers access to a variety of popular shopping, dining and entertainment venues and is only a short drive to Tucson International Airport. As with other KB Home communities, La Tierra Reserve provides home shoppers the opportunity to purchase a personalized, new KB home at a price that fits their budget."

KB Home stands out from other homebuilders as the company gives homebuyers exceptional choice and control. KB Home starts by offering a wide variety of homes at an affordable price. From there, the builder gives buyers the ability to personalize their homes from floor plans to exterior elevations, from design options to where they live in the community. The KB Home team works hand in hand with homeowners every step of the way so they have a real partner in the process.

Every KB home is designed to be ENERGY STAR^® certified thanks to the quality construction techniques and materials utilized that ultimately deliver significant savings on utility bills compared to used homes. Additionally, all new KB homes are designed to deliver an enhanced indoor environment and include high performance ventilation systems, low- or zero-VOC products and other features guided by the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Indoor airPLUS standards.

KB Home is one of the largest and most recognized homebuilders in the United States and has been building quality homes for over 60 years. Today, KB Home operates in 45 markets across eight states, serving a wide array of buyer groups. What sets us apart is how we give our customers the ability to personalize their homes from homesites and floor plans to cabinets and countertops, at a price that fits their budget. We are the first builder to make every home we build ENERGY STAR^® certified. In fact, we go beyond the EPA requirements by ensuring every ENERGY STAR certified KB home has been tested and verified by a third-party inspector to meet the EPA's strict certification standards, which help to lower the cost of ownership and to make our new homes healthier and more comfortable than new ones without certification. We also work with our customers every step of the way, building strong personal relationships so they have a real partner in the homebuying process, and the experience is as simple and easy as possible.
