“In addition to presenting the Luxury Home Tour, the HBRA is a cooperative of skilled professional businesses and craftsman working together to protect homeowner ”

L etter F rom T he HBRA CEO HOW THE HBRA HELPS YOU

Building a home is a unique experience

Welcome to the 2017 HBRA Home Tour!

Like other complicated and expensive processes, having the right professional partner makes navigation easier and more enjoyable. This importance to hire a capable captain to steer the rudder is why you should use a contractor who belongs to the Home Builders and Remodelers Association of Fairfield County.

This has been a labor of love for all of us involved in this inaugural launch. The committee members who represent various industries, from builders, architects, interior design, staging, mortgage lenders and insurance groups, all have worked hard to assist our staff in planning and promoting this exceptional event.

In addition to presenting the Luxury Home Tour, the HBRA is a cooperative of skilled professional businesses and craftsman working together to protect homeowners.

The builders who so graciously entered their newly constructed homes are innovators in craftmanship. From the design to construction of the homes to the outstanding amenities like custom built-ins, exquisite millwork, superb countertops, multiple fireplaces, elevators, wine cellars, heated garages and state of the art mechanicals these homes will take your breath away!

Members of the HBRA of Fairfield County represent the best in their industry. Whether a builder, remodeler, developer or associated trade or supplier; our members are committed to the highest industry standards. Not only do our members build the communities in which we live, work and play, but they live there as well.

The HBRA of Fairfield County is part of the National Association of Home Builders (“NAHB”) family, along with the HBRA of Connecticut, the statewide component and the voice to government officials. On the state and national levels, the HBRA works with officials to protect property rights and ensure that the American Dream of home ownership remains a reality.

When the time comes for you to build or remodel your home, check with the professionals at the HBRA of Fairfield County.

Special thanks to...

Arnold Karp of Karp Associates, Inc., Tim O’Malley of Argus Development, Luigi Altamura of Altamura Homes and Ken DeLeo and John Doherty of Doherty and DeLeo Development for taking part in this wonderful showcase.

To Doron Sabag and Jim Hoffman of Sound Beach Partners for hosting our Friday night kick-off event at their estate in Greenwich, a 2016 Home Building Industry (HOBI) award winner.

To our Kick-Off Sponsor, Wells Fargo. Our media sponsor, CTC&G and to all of our foundation sponsors who graciously stepped up to help us get this event off the ground.
