National Association of Home Builders

The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) strives to protect the American Dream of housing opportunities for all while working to achieve professional success for its members who build communities, create jobs and strengthen our economy.

Each year, NAHB members construct about 80% of the new homes built in the United States.

A federation of more than 700 state and local associations, NAHB represents more than 140,000 builder, remodeler, specialty trade, sales and marketing, design, housing finance, and building supply/manufacturing members.

Since its inception in the early 1940s, NAHB has served as “the voice of America’s housing industry.” Its primary goals are to ensure that housing is a national priority and that all Americans have access to safe, decent and affordable housing, whether they choose to buy a home or rent.

NAHB’s Annual Convention and Exposition, the International Builders’ Show (IBS - BuildersShow.com), is the largest annual event for the residential and light commercial construction industry.
