Nominate a Builder for the BEAM Award
Do you know a builder who best epitomizes our association’s motto, “Do Business with a Member?” If so, nominate him or her for the NAHB B.E.A.M. Award (Builders Engaging Associate Members). Sponsored by NAHB’s Associate Members Committee, the award was created in 2011 to encourage members to use the goods and services offered by other member companies and to offer national recognition to a builder who exemplifies this vitally important teamwork. An NCHBA subcommittee will consider all of the nominees from North Carolina and select one builder member nominee from our state to be submitted to NAHB for consideration. Finalists will be recognized at the International Builders’ Show Associates Awards Breakfast in Las Vegas in February 2014. Download application and evaluation form here. For more information, contact Tracie Garrett at tgarrett@nchba.org or call 1-800-662-7129.

Survey confirms value of homeownership to voters
Results of a major NAHB-commissioned survey clearly show the high priority that Americans continue to place on homeownership and housing choice, even amidst the turmoil in today’s housing market.
The survey, which polled 2,000 likely 2012 voters during the week of May 3-9, was conducted by two of the most highly regarded polling firms in the country. Initial findings were officially released in an NAHB media teleconference that was held on June 7, with further details set for release within the next few days — in fact, a special edition of Nation’s Building News to be published on Tuesday, June 14, will contain details from the full array of findings. But the bottom line is this: Americans see beyond the immediate housing market to the enduring value of homeownership, with an overwhelming 75% of those surveyed saying that owning a home is worth the risk of the fluctuations in the market and 95% of current home owners saying they are happy with their decision to purchase a home. Meanwhile, almost three-quarters of those who do not currently own a home said that homeownership is one of their goals. And among younger voters who are most likely to be in the market for a home in the next few years, the percentages are even higher.
