HBA Mission and History
OUR MISSION
The Housing & Building Association of Colorado Springs promotes policies that allow for the
production of safe and attainable housing and enhances the environment for the housing and building
industry in El Paso County.
WHO WE ARE
The Housing & Building Association of Colorado Springs is a private, non-profit 501(C)(6) corporation representing builders, developers, and remodelers, as well as trade contractors, materials suppliers, mortgage lenders, real estate agents, title companies, interior designers, architects, landscapers and beyond.
We are more than members – we are community leaders and builders. Together, we contribute to the growth, prosperity and quality of life this exceptional community has come to enjoy.
As it has done since its beginnings in October of 1950, the HBA strives to raise the public perception of, and increase the business and career opportunities for, the men and women of our industry. Housing is a necessity as well as part of the American Dream, and we are, through our members, the providers who meet the housing needs of the community. We are also proud to be the authoritative voice and information source for housing to government, the general public and the housing consumer.
