You build in Big Sky Country, but whatever the scale, construction is really about hundreds of tiny details matched to unforgiving deadlines. Timing is everything and materials must be perfect, available, onsite, and ready to go. That’s the mission Builders FirstSource has chosen to serve. We bring to your local market the best selection of high-quality residential construction materials and building components that manufacturers have to offer. More important, we stock what will work for you and the jobs you’re working here in Montana. 3200 US Hwy 12 E | 1000 E Lyndale Ave | Helena, MT 59601 | 406-442-7110 | www.bldrmontana.com

The following are tips and rules to help make the Parade
a success for you and the people around you, while
protecting each of our home’s aesthetics.
PHOTOGRAPHS
Each home belongs to a homeowner or to the builder, and he or she
may not want pictures or measurements taken for various reasons.
Please ask permission from staff before taking pictures.
NEIGHBORHOODS
Please consider where and how you park, be sensitive to noise and
walk on pavement, sidewalks or designated travel routes.
FURNITURE & DÉCOR
The furnishings of these homes are for viewing only. Please do not sit on

CHILDREN
Children are welcome at the Parade of Homes; however, please hold
their hands!

Portable toilets have been provided by Pine Stalls and are located at
each of the homes. Bathrooms in the homes are not for public use.
FOOT COVERS
Foot Covers will be provided at each home. Shoes must be removed and
foot covers must be placed over your socks each time you enter a home
and removed as you leave. The foot covers protect floor coverings from
dirt and oils.

Unexpected Ways
to Build Value
CAREFUL PLANNING CAN LEAD TO QUALITY DESIGN THAT MEETS THE
NEED TO ADDRESS AFFORDABILITY
By Deryl Patterson, AIA
A
s more potential home buyers struggle to find housing that meets their budget, the discussion
often turns to ways in which the building community can continue to provide quality home design
that is also affordable.
A builder once told me, “These elevations look too good. We can’t possibly afford them.” When we
examined the parts and pieces, nothing was outside the budget. He was just not used to seeing more
affordable houses with exterior appeal.
Value is not a dirty word. In fact, it is the key to giving home owners what they’re looking for while keeping
the project viable for builders. But where do you begin? Nearly all builders know they need to eliminate
space that today’s buyers don’t want or need and give them flexibility in spaces to match the way they live.
But here are six ways you might not have considered.

and your local architect about what’s trending and
important for your buyers. In general, though, begin
with these elements:
1. ISLAND LIVING
The island is arguably the greatest kitchen invention
since sliced bread. We all know it becomes the place
where friends and family gather and allows the cooks
to participate in activities in the adjacent family room.

CUTTING HIDDEN COSTS
It’s a challenge to deliver a home with all of the must-

breaking the budget. To cut out hidden costs, you can:

When combining siding with masonry accents, limit
the masonry to the base of the home. Think about the
height of the proposed landscaping. Why pay for brick
below the windows, then pay again to cover it up with
plants? Instead, consider adding the masonry in a single
panel above the bushes.

41HAHB’S FOCUS ON LUMBER
Escalating lumber prices are driving up housing costs and slowing new home production. This is the most
critical issue facing our industry today.
Insufficient domestic production and curtailments by large lumber mills that have lingered throughout the
past year are the biggest problems. NAHB is working hard to identify solutions to the crisis. Actions NAHB is
taking include:
• Reaching out to the Biden administration calling for prompt action on the issue;
• Leading an effort by more than 35 organizations asking Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo to examine the
lumber supply chain and work to increase production;
• Urging U.S. trade officials to return to the table and negotiate a new agreement
on softwood lumber tariffs with Canada.
• Tracking prices weekly and conveying the message to the public through
news media outlets, social media, on nahb.org and the NAHBNow blog;
• Meeting with members of Congress to make sure they understand that high
lumber prices are hurting small businesses, consumers and the broader economy;
• Requesting that Congress consider ways to boost the domestic supply of timber from
public lands;
• Targeting advertisements to domestic producers featuring member testimonials on the
impact of high prices;
• Conducting economic research showing the effect soaring prices are having on the cost of a new home.
