KB Home New Homes & Communities

KB Home is a national homebuilder with a substantial presence throughout Florida, including communities across the Tampa Bay and Sarasota-Bradenton markets.

For Home Zone Florida buyers, KB Home is especially relevant for those considering Riverview and the greater Tampa area as well as Bradenton, Parrish, Palmetto and surrounding Manatee County communities.

Home Zone Florida can help buyers compare KB Home communities, personalized home options, quick move-in inventory, incentives and total ownership costs with other new-construction opportunities throughout Florida’s Gulf Coast.

KB Home in Our Market

KB Home currently builds throughout multiple areas served by Home Zone Florida.

Relevant markets may include:

• Riverview
• Greater Tampa Bay
• Bradenton
• Parrish
• Palmetto
• Sarasota-Bradenton

Community availability changes as new neighborhoods open, existing communities enter later phases and inventory sells.

KB Home Property Options

Depending on the community, buyers may find:

• Single-family homes
• Townhomes
• Personalized build opportunities
• Quick move-in homes
• Planned communities
• Gated communities
• Neighborhood amenities
• Waterfront homesites in select communities

Home styles, floor plans, amenities and fees vary by community.

Personalized Homebuilding

One of KB Home’s distinguishing features is its emphasis on personalization.

Depending on the home and construction stage, buyers may be able to select:

• Flooring
• Cabinets
• Countertops
• Lighting
• Fixtures
• Interior finishes
• Exterior options
• Additional design features

KB Home operates a Tampa Design Studio in Riverview where eligible buyers can work through available design selections.

Buyers should understand which features are included in the base price and which selections create additional costs.

Understanding the Base Price

The advertised starting price of a new home may not represent the final purchase price.

Additional costs can include:

• Homesite premiums
• Structural options
• Design upgrades
• Exterior elevations
• Association fees
• Community fees
• Closing costs
• Financing costs

KB Home’s own pricing disclosures note that advertised base prices may exclude optional features, upgrades, homesite premiums and association fees.

Home Zone Florida can help buyers compare the complete cost rather than focusing only on the advertised starting price.

Quick Move-In Homes

KB Home may also offer move-in-ready or near-completion homes.

These can be useful for buyers who want a new home without completing the full design and construction process.

When comparing quick move-in inventory, consider:

• Final purchase price
• Included upgrades
• Homesite
• Completion date
• HOA fees
• Community amenities
• Builder incentives
• Financing incentives
• Comparable resale homes

Inventory and incentives can change frequently.

Energy Efficiency

KB Home emphasizes energy-efficient construction and currently markets its homes as designed to achieve ENERGY STAR® certification.

Energy-efficient features may help reduce household energy usage, but buyers should still evaluate the specific home’s systems, insulation, windows, HVAC equipment and projected utility costs.

Builder Financing & Incentives

KB Home may offer financing programs and incentives through affiliated or preferred financing resources.

Potential incentives may include:

• Financing programs
• Closing-cost assistance
• Price incentives
• Design incentives
• Quick move-in promotions

Buyers should compare the entire financial package, including purchase price, interest rate, loan costs, taxes, insurance, HOA fees and total monthly payment.

Work With Home Zone Florida Before Visiting

KB Home’s current broker-participation requirements make the first visit especially important.

If you want your own REALTOR® involved, KB Home currently requires the agent to register the buyer on the first visit and accompany the buyer at that visit.

KB Home also currently requires confirmation of a written buyer-broker agreement and requires a copy of that agreement at the time of the sales contract for applicable broker participation.

Because builder policies may change, contact Ryan Kessler before:

• Registering online
• Requesting builder information
• Visiting a KB Home community
• Touring a model home
• Scheduling an appointment with a sales counselor

Starting with your own REALTOR® involved helps preserve the opportunity for independent representation throughout the process.

What Home Zone Florida Can Help You Compare

Ryan can help evaluate:

• Community location
• Floor plans
• Homesites
• Base price
• Included features
• Design upgrades
• Homesite premiums
• HOA fees
• Community amenities
• Builder incentives
• Financing incentives
• Construction timelines
• Flood zones
• Insurance
• Comparable resale homes
• Long-term resale considerations

A lower advertised base price does not always mean a lower final cost once homesite and design selections are included.
