A government-backed label indicating a product, building, or system meets independent standards for superior energy efficiency. Think of it like a fuel-efficiency rating for appliances or buildings: it signals lower ongoing energy costs, reduced environmental impact, and often stronger consumer demand. For investors, Energy Star certified assets can mean lower operating expenses, higher resale or rental appeal, and reduced regulatory or reputational risk—factors that can improve returns.

WaterSense is a U.S. regulatory labeling program that certifies plumbing fixtures, irrigation systems, and related products as meeting specific water-efficiency standards, similar to how Energy Star marks energy-efficient appliances. For investors, a WaterSense label signals potential cost and resource savings for end users, can boost product demand and brand trust, and may affect a company's compliance costs, market access and competitive positioning in water-sensitive markets.

Mirador Ridge Skies offers personalized, new single-story homes with planned community amenities and close to award-winning schools and parks, priced from the $360,000s.

TUCSON, Ariz., Jan. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the largest and most trusted homebuilders in the U.S., today announced the grand opening of Mirador Ridge Skies, the company's third new-home community within the desirable Mirador Point master plan in Southeast Tucson.

The new homes at Mirador Ridge Skies are designed for the way people live today, with popular interior features like modern kitchens overlooking large great rooms, bedroom suites with walk-in closets, and ample storage space. Mirador Ridge Skies' single-story floor plans offer up to four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. Homeowners will appreciate the planned on-site amenities, which include a park with walking paths. The new neighborhood is also zoned for the award-winning Vail School District, which includes Empire High School, the number one rated high school in Arizona.
