The two associations have 150,000 members combined. That’s 150,000 more connections and future business partners to add to your list!
- Government Affairs: GSABA dedicates countless resources to lobbying, tracking the activities of local policy makers, monitoring local, state and national regulatory agencies, developing relationships with elected officials, and organizing pro-active industry activities that positively affect the San Antonio home building climate. Keeping home building on the minds of lawmakers will insure that our industry, which contributes substantially to the local economy, is protected and regulated smartly, not broadly.
