KB HOME to move corporate headquarters from LA to Phoenix

KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the largest and most recognized homebuilders in the U.S., said it will move its corporate headquarters from Los Angeles to the Phoenix metro area.

Starting in spring 2027, KB Home will base its new headquarters in Tempe, Arizona, consolidating executive leadership and key corporate teams in a more central market that is expected to reduce the company’s cost structure over time. The Phoenix metro area offers a business-friendly environment that the company expects will improve efficiency and support long-term profitability.

“This move brings our teams together in a more collaborative environment, and Phoenix is the right place to do it,” said Robert McGibney, president and chief executive officer of KB Home. “It positions KB Home to operate more effectively and supports the next phase of our growth.”

The headquarters will be at Hayden Ferry Lakeside in Tempe, with convenient access to major transportation corridors and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The site builds on KB Home’s existing presence in the region, including key corporate functions and leadership already located in Phoenix, and creates a more geographically central and accessible hub within the company’s nationwide footprint.

KB Home will keep a substantial footprint in California through its six operating divisions. The builder has delivered tens of thousands of homes across the state over the years and remains committed to serving California buyers, with more than 100 communities now open statewide.
