HBA Hosts Successful 2025 Housing Summit
 On Tuesday, May 6 the HBA of Metro Denver hosted its annual Housing Summit with over 300 association members and dozens of local elected officials present to discuss some of the most pressing challenges and opportunities confronting residential development in Colorado and across the country.
The event featured NAHB Chief Economist Robert Dietz, who provided a forecast for the national and Metro Area real estate markets, highlighting issues affecting our region including supply chain, labor shortages, material costs and land availability.

The event also included a local panel of building experts focusing on the challenges impacting housing affordability issues here in the Denver market and specific ways the industry can partner with local governments to resolve them. Issues like impact fees, permitting timelines, metro districts and construction-defects reform were extensively discussed by the panel and our audience. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mr. Dietz; Jeff Handlin, the moderator; and our distinguished panelists Tyler Carlson, Scott Cox and Carl Koelbel for lending their expertise for another informative event.
