Broken Arrow builder, Joe Robson, will be installed next week at the annual International Builders' Show and as Chairman of the National Association of Home Builders during its first session of 2009 business and board meetings.
I'll be attending the event, representing
COHBA with other Sr. Officers and builders from the Metro, and will be blogging on the event here at MLR as time allows. I won't go so far as calling it live-blogging, as I do have a full schedule of business to tend to, which unfortunately doesn't include much recreational time.
Robson, this week, testified before Congress this week regarding the stimulus package and how it can best aid the Nation's ailing housing market.
The statement that best sums up the industry's position:
In conjunction with foreclosure mitigation efforts, Congress must pass temporary and targeted incentives to encourage Americans to buy homes again. This will help to stabilize home prices, prevent future foreclosures, restore consumer confidence and start creating jobs.
