CODE OF ETHICS
Members of Tri County Home Builders Association affirm that:

Home ownership should be within reach of every American family. These homes should provide the best value possible, and be built with high standards of safety, quality materials, sanitation and livability. In addition, every home should be backed by builder service and integrity,
As part of our responsibility to the homebuyer, our community and country, TCHBA members pledge allegiance to the following principles and policies:
Honesty is our guiding policy in conducting business affairs. We will strive consistently to comply with the law in financial transactions and business contracts, and manage our dealings with employees, subcontractors and suppliers with fairness.
We will work toward establishing a balance between legitimate environmental concerns and the need to develop and construct new housing. This will include the conservation of land and energy through consideration of natural environment as an intrinsic element in housing design.

To maintain our leadership as a progressive industry, we will continue to encourage research and development of new materials, building techniques, building equipment, and improved methods of home financing. Sound legislative proposals affecting our industry and the people we serve shall have our informed and vigorous support.
Finally, because we believe in the free enterprise system and American way of life, we pledge our support to our associates, our local, state and national association, and all related industries concerned with the preservation of legitimate rights and freedoms.

We assume these responsibilities freely and solemnly, mindful that they are part of our obligation as members of the Tri County Home Builders Association.
