The Complainant, KAUFMAN & BROAD is a real estate development and construction company<\/span>. The Complainant is the owner of trademarks in the terms KAUFMAN BROAD.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Complainant also owns a number of domain names, including the same distinctive wording KAUFMAN BROAD, such as the domain names <kaufmanbroad.com> and <kaufmanbroad.fr>.<\/p>\n

COMPLAINANT<\/strong><\/p>\n

The disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the Complainant’s trademark KAUFMAN BROAD and its domain names. The Complainant contends that the addition of the term “ilip\" is not sufficient to escape the finding that the domain name is confusingly similar to the Complainant’s trademarks nor does it change the overall impression of the domain name as being associated with the trademark KAUFMAN BROAD. Moreover, the Complainant submits that the addition of the suffix “.COM” is irrelevant in determining whether or not a disputed domain name is confusingly similar to a mark.<\/p>\n

Per the Complaint, the Respondent is not known of the Complainant. The Complainant contends that Respondent is not affiliated with nor authorized by the Complainant in any way and that Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name. The Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with the Respondent. Furthermore, the disputed domain name resolves to an error page. Past panels have found it is not a bona fide offering of goods or services or legitimate non-commercial or fair use.<\/p>\n

As regards the bad faith of the Respondent, the disputed domain name includes the distinctive trademark KAUFMAN BROAD<\/strong>. It is reasonable to infer that the Respondent has registered the domain name with full knowledge of the Complainant's trademark.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the Complainant argues that the Respondent has attempted to attract Internet users to its own website for commercial gain, which is a strong evidence of bad faith. Finally, the Complainant sets forth that the Respondent has engaged in a pattern of conduct registering third party trademarks as domain names.
