The Brief

  • CEO Robert McGibney cited a “business-friendly” environment and a more central location as key drivers to lower costs and boost efficiency.
  • Despite the move, the company pledged to maintain a major California presence through its six divisions and 100+ active communities.

LOS ANGELES KB Home, a staple of the Southern California business landscape for decades, announced Tuesday that it will exit its Westwood headquarters next year.
