Building Futures in New Mexico
New Mexico Home Builders Association (NMHBA) is a 1,900+ member trade association that was chartered with the National Association of Home Builders in 1959 to improve conditions in the construction industry, thereby providing the citizens of New Mexico with safe, quality housing.
Home ownership is the cornerstone of family security, stability and prosperity. It strengthens our communities, encourages civic responsibility and provides a solid foundation from which New Mexicans can work to support their families, enhance their communities and achieve their personal goals.
The value of housing and home ownership to New Mexico and its people just cannot be overstated.
The NM Builders Direct magazine continues the legacy of the Housing Journal that has published for the past 50 years educational and in-depth coverage of ongoing industry issues. Published six times a year, Builder Direct is mailed to every member and posted in digital format on this website, plus posted to social media platforms with a link. Information on building codes, upcoming legislation and legislative initiatives, detailed explanations if infrastructure financing options, and how to ensure you’re not paying more GRT on your construction projects are just a few of the topics that have been reported in the magazine.
The NM Direct Flash e-mails are intended to provide late-breaking news that members can use to jump on opportunities for their businesses, or to participate in discussions with regulatory agencies that members can contribute stories from the field to shape regulations that affect all contractors. You never know when one of the Flash articles can result in saving you money!
