Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod

What Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod does

The Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod (HBRACC) is a regional, member-funded trade association serving the residential construction industry across Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, the South Shore, and Southeastern Massachusetts. Founded in 1950 and headquartered in West Yarmouth, Massachusetts, it represents more than 300 company members including builders, remodelers, suppliers, and subcontractors. The association is led by President April Ducott and operates with a small staff of 1-10 employees.

HBRACC's core offering is a bundled set of member services: legislative and code advocacy (delivered in coordination with the National Association of Home Builders and the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Massachusetts), education and certification programming, networking events such as the annual Nail Bangers' Golf Tournament and Blitz Build community project with Habitat for Humanity of Cape Cod, and the BRICC Awards recognition program launched in 2025. It also publishes At Home Magazine on a biannual cadence, which serves as a consumer-facing directory and advertising channel that complements the online 'Find a Professional' tool. The underlying technology stack is centered on the GrowthZone / ChamberMaster association management platform, which handles membership, events, billing, and the public directory.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: annual member dues of $605 per company, event and program sponsorships (with 2026 title and platinum sponsors including James Hardie and QXO), and advertising sales tied to At Home Magazine. As a nonprofit trade body, HBRACC is structurally membership-funded rather than capital-funded and reinvests operating surplus into advocacy, events, and member programming.
