Serving the Home Building and Remodeling Industry

How to Join BAM:

BAM is part of a network of knowledgeable organizations that works to improve your business and the industry as a whole.

You actually join BAM through your local builder's association. BAM is the umbrella organization for home builders and works on statewide issues. There are 15 local builder associations around the state. Each local association has a different process for becoming a member and each offers a variety of services such as: Parade of Homes, Home Shows, monthly membership meetings, education opportunities and camaraderie.

When you join the local association, a portion of your dues is sent to the Builders Association of Minnesota and the National Association of Home Builders. You join one of the local associations and automatically become a member with BAM and NAHB to provide you with access to resources that can answer your building and business related questions, whatever they may be.
