Remodelers -- in May we celebrate you! This month is National Home Remodeling month in which the remodeling industry and professionals are recognized. Increasing home value, completing needed maintenance and improving energy-efficiency are just some of the reasons to remodel. Spring has sprung and there's no better time to celebrate the power of rebuilding.

Exciting news for our summer events, National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) Chairman Bill Owens will be our special guest in Medora! NDAB meetings and the Summer Social will take place on Tuesday, August 4 at the Rough Riders Hotel with a golf event on Wednesday, August 5 at the Bully Pulpit Golf Course. To celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we will be taking a tour of the new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library while we are in town. Further details and registration will be coming soon!

NAHB’s Spring Leadership Meetings & Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C. is coming up on June 9-13. The Legislative Conference, NAHB’s most important lobbying event, will take place on Wednesday, June 10, in conjunction with the Spring Leadership Meetings. This is a unique opportunity for members to speak one-on-one with our elected representatives on Capitol Hill and to push for housing policies that will help our industry. The NAHB Fall Leadership Meetings will be in Detroit, Michigan on October 6-8.

In a letter signed by 76 representatives, the Real Estate Caucus and the Build America Caucus called on House Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to remove harmful provisions in the Senate-passed 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that mandates the forced sale of single-family build-to-rent (BTR) housing. The letter stated that Section 901 of the Senate bill, as drafted, “would have far reaching and unintended consequences that run counter to the bill’s stated goal of expanding housing opportunity.” NAHB estimates that single-family housing starts may drop by 40,000 units per year as a result of this mandate and has actively campaigned for its removal.
