It has over 1,450 member companies, collecting representing all corners of the industry, including: home builders, land developers, professional renovators, financial services, trade contractors, manufacturers and suppliers of all types of home-related products.<\/p>\n

BILD is the largest home builders\u2019 Association In Canada, and all members are affiliated with the Ontario Home Builder\u2019s Association and The Canadian Home Builders Association. It\u2019s history began when the Toronto Home Builders\u2019 Association was established in 1921. The original five Toronto builders \u00a0first met to discuss development fees and charges, and formed an association that has been representing both the industry and influencing public policy development for almost a century.<\/p>\n
In the 1950s, the Association expanded into consumer home shows, launching the National Home Show in 1950 and the Fall National Home Show in 1988. After many years of co-ownership, in 2014, BILD became the sole owner and operator of the National Home Show, Toronto Fall Home Show and the GTA Home & Reno Show.<\/p>\n
In 2001, the association created the RenoMark\u2122 to help consumers identify professional renovators committed to high standards and who follow a Code of Conduct. RenoMark\u2122 is now used to distinguish professional renovators in more than 40 municipalities and 9 provinces across Canada.<\/p>\n
In 2006, members of the Greater Toronto Home Builders Association and the Urban Development Institute\/Ontario voted to merge the two organizations in order to better serve the industry through a united presence.<\/p>\n
In 2007, the newly merged organization was renamed \u2018BILD\u2019 or The Building Industry and Land Development Association.<\/p>\n
