NAHB Consistently Delivers Value for Its Members

NAHB fights for its members on Capitol Hill, in state houses and in the communities where they do business. We work hard to defeat excessive regulations and to protect our members’ bottom lines. Our advocacy efforts include educating policymakers and the Administration, building successful coalitions, and mobilizing NAHB’s grassroots on a range of issues.

NAHB advocates on behalf of its members on a wide range of issues, including the tax code, federal housing programs, regulatory relief, environmental laws, building codes, OSHA, building materials, housing finance and more. A single win in the policy arena can save builders thousands of dollars on every home they build.

In recent years, the association's advocacy efforts and other member benefit offerings have provided members with tremendous value — equal to approximately $6,160 per housing start in 2020.

This significant savings makes membership in NAHB an essential tool for smart home builders and the diverse businesses that support the home building industry.
