Who We Are

An Independent Voice for Housing Policy

HBAV BuildPAC is the housing industry’s political action committee — it’s how we elevate awareness of the issues impacting our builders’ and developers’ ability to deliver a diversity of new housing stock to meet Virginia’s growing demand.

We support state legislators and candidates who understand the important role the housing industry plays in our state and local economies — and who recognize that land-use, zoning, and other housing-related policies passed by the Virginia General Assembly have a direct impact on the industry’s ability to provide housing opportunities for individuals and families across the income spectrum.

Your investment into BuildPAC ensures that our industry’s collective voice is heard in Richmond. Funds may be given by both corporate and individual sources.

Non-Partisan by Design

BuildPAC evaluates candidates solely on their positions on housing and construction issues — not party affiliation. We have supported Republicans, Democrats, and independents.

Governed by Members

All endorsement decisions are reviewed and approved by the HBAV Board of Directors, ensuring BuildPAC represents the collective judgment of Virginia's building community.

Fully Transparent

All contributions and expenditures are publicly disclosed to the Virginia Department of Elections and searchable on VPAP. HBAV also publishes an annual BuildPAC report for members.

Why We Give

What BuildPAC Fights For

BuildPAC doesn't back parties — it backs positions. These are the policy areas where Virginia's housing industry needs a strong, sustained voice in government.

01

Housing Affordability

The cost to build a home in Virginia is rising — driven not just by materials and labor, but by impact fees, permitting delays, and local regulations that add tens of thousands to a home's price before a single nail is driven. BuildPAC supports officials who treat affordability as a policy priority, not just a talking point.

02

Sensible Permitting and Regulation

Overregulation doesn't just cost money — it costs time, and time costs housing. BuildPAC advocates for streamlined permitting processes, reasonable building codes, and state oversight that protects both consumers and the builders who serve them.

03

Infrastructure Investment

Roads, water, and sewer infrastructure are the foundation of new housing development. When localities underfund infrastructure and pass the cost directly to builders through excessive proffers and impact fees, housing production stalls and costs soar. BuildPAC champions officials who fund infrastructure properly.

04

Workforce Development

Virginia's housing industry faces a generational workforce shortage. BuildPAC supports policies that fund skilled trades education, expand apprenticeship programs, and create pathways into the construction industry for the next generation of Virginia builders.
