Master Sponsors

The Master Sponsor Program was developed to create a year-round relationship with our member firms that comprise the New Jersey Builders Association. The program is designed to assist the Master Sponsors to establish and maintain important contacts with key building professionals throughout the industry. In order to accomplish this, the Master Sponsors are invited to and recognized at all major functions held by the Association. The NJBA Master Sponsors make a commitment to provide financial support to the Association, which enables the NJBA to maintain its efforts to protect and promote the building industry interests in New Jersey.

                                                         
Why Become a Master Sponsor

Master Sponsor companies are the true stockholders of the NJBA. Many of us have heard our program Chairperson say, “If the builders stop building today, associates will stop working tomorrow.” For the Master Sponsor companies, this is a critical reason to continue participation year after year. Without the Builders Association, the building of homes would face a significant decrease, as would the need for the products and services that associate members provide. The NJBA’s overall strength comes from Master Sponsor participation in order to monetarily fund the legislative battles that threaten the industry on a daily basis. The true value of the program is evident in the level of participation that each member chooses to embrace. The Master Sponsor membership is not one of entitlement, but rather one of opportunity. The following major categories are highlights and talking points of the vast potential offered each Master Sponsor Company in return for their invaluable support.


Builder Testimonials

“I cannot say enough about the Master Sponsor Program and its benefits to the entire NJBA membership. As a builder who transacts business with many Master Sponsor Companies, I can tell you that our interaction and participation in the program has saved our firm many thousands of dollars - both in real dollars and intangible benefits over the past few years.

Of course, and added benefit to the NJBA membership is the tremendous financial support to the association. This has an overall effect of keeping member dues lower while providing a valuable service back to the members. It’s a total ‘win - win’ scenario.”
- Michael M. Solondz, Sunrise Communities

“NJBA’s Master Sponsor program has grown to be a
major influential force and financial source in promoting and supporting Builder related initiatives. For this alone, it makes good sense to do business with Master Sponsors and we have found that it also makes good business sense. Support the people that support you!”
- Stephen J. Hovnanian, J.S. Hovnanian & Sons, Inc.

“Without the substantial financial support of our Master Sponsors, we as homebuilders in New Jersey could not survive. The Master Sponsors have stepped up to the plate to assist our industry so that we can continue to fight the increasing bureaucracy that is making it extremely difficult to provide the needed housing in New Jersey.”
- Peter Blicher, President, Westrum Pennington, LP

“Piersol Homes is extremely grateful for the support of the Master Sponsors. Master Sponsors are just another member benefit of the NJBA. Their dedication and financial support in builder related topics are just a few of the reasons that make it a must to become a member of the NJBA. We appreciate you continued efforts.”
- Susan E. Piersol, Piersol Homes
