Why should you give to NC Build-PAC

We save you money on each house you build and market!

Some of the major accomplishments:

Builder inventory exemption for property taxes.
New construction exempted from sales tax on labor.
Orange County impact fee (up to $11,000 per home) eliminated.
Building inspections to be completed within 2 business days.
Elimination of aesthetic controls by local governments.
Require building inspectors to perform the entire inspection.

These items save our builders and their team MONEY and TIME!

NC Build-PAC is our way of working together to fund candidates that support these types of issues.

How long would it take to build a house if inspections were taking 8 business days? (It happened in the Triangle.)

How much would sales tax on labor cost per new home? ($5,000 on average per house).

How much money do building companies save with the builder inventory exemption on property tax? (One company saved over $500,000 last year!)

Give today and give generously! Your livelihood depends on it.

– Mike Carpenter, NCHBA

Top NCHBA Legislative Accomplishments in the 2024 season:

The 2023 legislative long session was one of the most productive and successful sessions in NCHBA’s history,” said Tim Minton, NCHBA Executive Vice President.
As usual, our legislative agenda was ambitious and obstacles to enacting legislation into law, not only for us but others, are more prominent than ever. Our task was made even more challenging this session by the Governor’s veto of three of our key bills. But, with bipartisan legislative support, we are pleased to report that the vetoes were overridden and these bills became law.
While housing affordability is always central to our advocacy efforts, the ongoing housing affordability crisis was recognized this session by legislators on both sides of the aisle as a critical issue. Consequently, with one major exception, this recognition assisted us getting our legislation to prevent or reduce unnecessary housing costs considered and enacted.
