Introducing KB Home’s Wildfire-Resilient Multifamily Homes
KB Home is building the nation’s first homes to meet the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety’s® (IBHS) new Wildfire Prepared Multifamily™ Technical Standard. The Wildfire Prepared Multifamily Technical Standard extends IBHS’s research-based mitigation guidelines to duplexes, townhomes, apartments and condominiums and potentially helps homeowners save money on home insurance costs.
What rigorous standards must each KB home meet to earn the IBHS designation?
What makes communities without designated homes prone to wildfire destruction?
Wildfires become catastrophic when they enter built environments, causing conflagration — the rapid, uncontrolled spread of fire that leads to widespread structure loss. Traditional neighborhoods often have:
- Densely spaced buildings
- Combustible materials
- Connective fuels like trees and wood fences
Why choose a wildfire-resilient multifamily home?
- Safer – Built to reduce home wildfire risk.
- Potential Savings – Will potentially save you money on home insurance costs.
- Greater Peace of Mind – Provides confidence that your home is better prepared.

Want to know more about KB?
KB Home builds homes that are uniquely built for you. That's why we give you the ability to personalize your home, from floor plans and design options to exterior elevations and where you live in the community. All innovatively designed and at a price that fits your budget. Just as important, we work closely with you every step of the way so you have a real partner in the process.
*Consistent with California energy regulations, new homes must be equipped with solar panels. These are not included in the posted price, but may be leased for a monthly payment, or purchased for an additional cost that may be eligible for mortgage financing. The required size of the solar system depends on several factors, including home size and climate zone. The installed solar system may reduce your monthly local electric utility company bill. For more information, see kbhome.com/solar.
