National Housing Center Announces 2025 Award Recipients

The National Housing Center Board of Governors, a committee of the National Association of Home Builders, recently announced the recipients of the 2025 National Housing Center Awards. Winners for the Exemplary Service to Home Awards and inductees to the National Housing Hall of Fame were named Tuesday during NAHB’s 2025 Spring Leadership Meetings in Washington, D.C.

The 2025 recipients of the Exemplary Service to Home Building Awards—which recognizes individuals for their accomplishments in service to the housing industry—are Larry Fiano and Emma and Chuck Shinn.

Additionally, individuals inducted into the 2025 National Housing Hall of Fame include: Calvin “Chip” Dence, Donald R. Horton, Heather McCune, Karl “Randy” Noel, and Gregory Ugalde. These individuals were all recognized for their efforts in changing the nation’s housing for the better.

NAHB established the National Housing Hall of Fame in 1976 to recognize those individuals whose spirit, ingenuity and determination have changed the face of housing for the better, making America one of the best-housed nations in the world. Being named to the National Housing Hall of Fame is the highest individual honor bestowed by the housing industry.
