HBI Seeks Participants for Labor Shortage Study

The University of Denver, in collaboration with the Home Builders Institute (HBI) and Fannie Mae, is finalizing a pivotal research study on the impact of labor shortages on housing affordability.

To help inform the study, HBI is looking for builders to participate in this research project. HBI’s aim is to collect a minimum of 50 case studies from a diverse group of builders, including small (10-100 homes), medium (100-1,000 homes), and large (over 1,000 homes) builders. The University of Denver will finalize the study next week, which will include a 60-minute interview with the identified builders via Zoom.

Eligible respondents will receive free sponsorship acknowledgment at the HBI reception at the 2025 International Builders’ Show in February in Las Vegas and be acknowledged in the final report, which will be shared with all participants.

Your participation will provide invaluable insights and data, contribute to a comprehensive understanding of this critical issue and help develop effective solutions that can transform the industry.

Please contact Paula Morris, HBI executive office manager, as soon as possible to participate.
