Join NVBIA for Building Industry 101, an informative and engaging series consisting of three sessions detailing the building process. We welcome Jessica Francis of Drees Homes, NVBIA’s 2026 President, as a featured speaker, bringing her leadership, expertise, and industry perspective to this series. In addition, each session will feature local industry professionals representing the whole range of builders from custom builders to local and regional builders to the larger national builders. Our panelists will discuss market research, land acquisition, rezoning, land development, construction, sales and marketing, warranty work and more. This series will provide you with everything you need to know to become a successful employee in the homebuilding arena. Session One will provide a General Overview of the myriad of aspects of the new home community from land purchase to final bond release. Concentration on land acquisition and the processes necessary to “purchase the right piece of ground” will be reviewed. From market analysis (both demographic and engineering) to financing. Session Two will focus on the land planning and development processes. How land planning, product development, engineering, the entitlement process and financing are all intertwined and lead up to settlement on a piece of land. How Homeowner Associations and Condominium regimes play into the development process will be discussed. Session Three will cover New Home Sales and Marketing to Purchasing to Construction and Delivery of a home to a happy purchaser. Discussions will revolve around both office and field issues and how the two come together to build the very best home and community for the purchaser. Limited Spots Available! Register NOW! |
