Parade of HomesSM
Plan today for your dream home of the future - Parade of HomesSM!
The Parade of Homes is a specialized marketing program for builder members of the Home & Building Association of Greater Grand Rapids to showcase craftsmanship and promote future home sales, as well as for suppliers to present their products and services in actual new home settings throughout West Michigan.
There are two Parades of Homes held each year by the HBAGGR. They are considered "scattered site" Parades which allow homes to be in any size, style and area of West Michigan. Homes are new, never lived in and open for touring during the dates of the promotion.
Community Event
Each home is staffed by a non-profit organization who serves as both welcome wagon and ticket seller. A portion of the proceeds goes to benefit the groups that staff each Parade. If your group is interested in staffing a home, please send request to homes@hbaggr.com with the name of your group, contact person and address and we will add you on to our waiting list. All groups must be non-profit in status.

2010 PARADE FEATURES REMODELS!
The Home & Building Association of Greater Grand Rapids (HBAGGR) is pleased to announce the 2010 Parade of Homes dates. With this year’s Parade we are also excited to announce the addition of remodeled homes in the event!
“We have some new and exciting things to see in next year’s Parade”, says Dale Shugars, Executive Vice President of the HBAGGR. “Not only green building and universal design, but also exceptional remodeling projects and whole house renovations showcase as fine examples of what our members do in addition to building new homes.”
Two times a year, the HBAGGR brings Parade of Homes to the Greater Grand Rapids area. It’s a great opportunity for homeowners and future homeowners to come out and get ideas on remodeling, custom homes, and possibly even buy a home.
