June is National Homeownership Month!
|
|
The home building industry celebrates
National Homeownership Month
in June, in recognition of the essential role that homeownership plays in our national economy, individual financial security and fulfilling the American Dream.
NAHB has developed special materials to help builders and lenders highlight positive messages about the home building industry, and provide consumers with information on the benefits of homeownership. Helpful resources include reports and studies, articles, guides, ads and videos, facts and messages to post to your own social media network.

5th Annual SACCD Kicks Off Thursday

Bigger and better every year, we're looking forward to the 5th Annual Southern Arizona Construction Career Days,
Nov. 7 and 8 at the Tucson Rodeo Grounds
. Since its first year, SAHBA has partnered with ATB, JTED and other industry partners to design hands-on activities to demonstrate 'horizontal" and "vertical" construction career options. Educators throughout southern Arizona bring in more than a thousand students for a fun day of
career exploration within the construction industry, including trades, infrastructure, utilities, engineering, design and architecture and more.
ACT's Michele Bettini will chair this year's Vertical Team, meeting at SAHBA Thursday at 4pm.

Congressman Biggs Recognized for Defending Housing
|
|
When industry champion Andy Biggs was elected to Congress in 2016 after serving in the State Senate, SAHBA knew it would be positive for our members. In only his first term,
Biggs has led efforts to reduce regulatory red-tape
, including on the very important Waters of the US (WOTUS) rule. Last week, Spencer Kamps and Connie Wilhelm of HCACA and Ed Castelhano of SAHBA presented NAHB’s
Defender of Housing Award
to Biggs for his efforts.
