Building America One House at a Time

The strength of the home building industry is fundamental to the strength of our nation. Our industry is responsible for providing shelter and comfort for our families, safety and protection for our communities, and millions of jobs for the economy. Recognizing both the significance and duty of the building industry to the collective good of our nation, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) is a not-for-profit trade association whose primary goal is to keep housing as a top national priority. We are "the voice of America's home building industry".

NAHB is comprised of over 200,000 members, who together employ over eight million Americans. Representing a wide diversity of industry-related professions, including builders, remodelers, subcontractors, manufacturers, suppliers, and much more. NAHB's members contribute five percent of the economic activity in the country.

Founded in 1942, NAHB is organized as a federation of more than 850 state and local homebuilders associations nationwide. We actively promote policies that help provide and expand opportunities for all Americans to have safe, decent and affordable housing. We work hard to enact pro-housing legislation and pursue regulatory and Judicial changes that have a positive impact on our nation's building industry.
