Membership Benefits

Did you know that the Georgia High Country Builders Association (GHCBA) is comprised of members from Gilmer, Fannin, and Pickens counties?  Our membership continues to grow and as such strengthens your voice in these county communities.

Home building is one of the largest industries in our communities. GHCBA gives our members the opportunity to network with other local builders, developers, and associated businesses. The best way to get involved is through participation in committees, chapters, or councils. Each allows you to meet within a contextualized area within the GHCBA.

GHCBA is built on our Four Pillars (+ one cool fact).

Advocacy

GHCBA advocates on your behalf to our local governments to promote continued growth and to be a voice for reasonable code interpretation, permitting and zoning issues.

Networking

Through monthly membership meetings, unique platforms, and environments, you are able to network with companies near where you work and live as well as your fellow builders.

Education

Every builder needs their CE’s.

Community Serve

Looking for a way to give back?  GHCBA supports volunteerism and donations to several charities.
