CHBA's National Awards for Housing Excellence recognize the best in Canadian new homes, renovations, community development, and residential marketing. The prestigious  competition receives hundreds of entries each year from across the country, with finalists and winners picking up media coverage from coast to coast. The 2023 competition once again saw an impressive number of entries, receiving nearly 800 submissions.

This event is 8 months long with plenty of opportunities for visibility with members, the larger industry, and the public. Promotion starts with an advance call for entries, throughout the judging process, and then extensive promotion of finalists and winners that lasts months.

The awards gala is the grand finale event of Home Building Week in Canada. Winners of the CHBA National Awards for Housing Excellence are announced during a live show and simultaneously promoted across all CHBA communications platforms, especially on social media which receives great uptake and sees plenty of sharing and reposting (search for #CHBAHousingAwards and look at @CHBANational to see how we share about the awards).
