The Bryan College Station Home Builders Association (BCSHBA) is a local, professional trade organization affiliated with the Texas Association of Builders and National Association of Home Builders, chartered in 1967 to promote and protect the building industry and its customers in Brazos, Burleson, Grimes, Leon, Madison, Robertson, Walker & Washington counties. In 2014, BCSHBA obtained an assumed name certificate from the State of Texas for doing business as the Greater Brazos Valley Builders Association (GBVBA). This better reflects the area in which our members do business and the association represents. In 2020, GBVBA hired a Government Affairs Coordinator. This staff member is shared with the BCS Regional Association of REALTORS® and works collectively for both organizations. In order to accomplish our mission, the organization interacts externally with NAHB, TAB, the government (local, state and national), the community, and the general public for the purposes of providing trade and technical information, education, political involvement, community support, and promoting member products and services. Internally, the Association provides organizational structure and management, resources, communications, activities, educational programs and other services to benefit its members.
