The Greater Fort Smith Association of Home Builders was established in 1955 as a local organization to promote housing. We became affiliated with the National Association of Home Builders a few years later, then became part of the Arkansas Home Builders Association when it was established in the 1970's. Today the Association is proud to have over 200 local firms on the membership roll.We are governed by a Board of Directors and numerous affiliated councils and committees along with a full time executive director who collectively oversee our projects such as the annual Home Show, Parade of Homes, Showcase Home, and Scholarship Golf Tournament.

A craft dating back thousands of years, carpentry is the largest of all building trades with many different "specialties". A carpenter works with various materials to construct, install and maintain buildings and other objects like cabinets or furniture.
In 2013, Stephanie Stipins became the Executive Director for The Greater Fort Smith Association of Home Builders (GFSHBA). Working alongside volunteers, Stephanie has grown and evolved memberships, events and programs which have helped reestablish the GFSHBA as one of the leading home builder associations in Arkansas and the surrounding areas.
Asking your potential builder questions about their business is not only prudent, but encouraged. Know you are dealing with a professional that you can depend on. Just about any business that supports the building trades is a member. Sub-contractors, materials suppliers, realtors, bankers, numerous service providers and more.
