Kurt Wiedt, the founder and principal of Markham Woods, a Denver-based home-building firm, concentrates on high-end, modern residential projects. As a builder and real estate professional, Kurt Wiedt belongs to the Colorado Association of Home Builders.
The Colorado Association of Home Builders (CAHB) advocates for the best interests of its members, who represent more than 40,000 professionals in an industry that contributes $11.5 billion each year to the state economy. The 30 percent of CAHB members who work as builders construct close to eight in 10 of the new homes across Colorado and approximately nine in 10 of the new homes in the state’s Front Range area.
The remaining 70 percent of the CAHB’s ranks consists of realtors, mortgage companies, title companies, suppliers, and other professionals involved in the state’s housing industry. Joining as associate and affiliate members, they sit on leadership bodies and support the organization in a number of other capacities as well.
In terms of numbers, the CAHB’s membership has remained stable in recent years, although the organization anticipates that its ranks will expand as the economy continues to strengthen.
