Housing First Minnesota is the voice of home builders and remodelers and all who are dedicated to building safe, durable homes at a price Minnesotans can afford. Housing First Minnesota was created to advance the interests of the housing industry, engage industry members and to be the leading resource for housing-related issues in Minnesota.
Housing First Minnesota is a modern, comprehensive advocacy program that is dedicated to helping industry professionals grow their businesses. Originating as a program of the Builders Association of the Twin Cities, Housing First Minnesota recognizes its role as the state’s voice for the housing industry and engages industry members in advocacy opportunities related to grassroots advocacy, legislative lobbying, regulatory issues with state agencies, political elections and events.
Our advocacy work has never been more important. The housing industry remains under intense regulatory pressures that affect Minnesota homeowners’ ability to buy, build and remodel their dream homes. Housing First Minnesota supports reasonable regulations and protections, but our call for balance in rules and affordability for families is a voice that must be heard.
