Fort Collins builder elected to home builders leadership role

FORT COLLINS — The National Association of Home Builders has elected Fort Collins remodeler and home builder Bob Peterson to the third vice chairman position, which means that he will lead the national organization in 2027.

Peterson has 40 years’ experience in the construction field and is the founder of Associates in Building + Design Ltd., a company he started in May 1990 that specializes in custom homes and high-end remodeling. Peterson’s daughters, Heather Schreiner and Alison Johnson, now own and manage the company, where he serves as a consultant.

“In this election year, we look forward to working with Democratic and Republican leaders to show why homeownership must remain a top national priority and why it is essential to the economic and social well-being of our nation,” Peterson said in a written statement. “We will seek to ease the nation’s housing affordability crisis by urging policymakers to remove regulatory barriers that harm small businesses and raise housing and remodeling costs.”
