The MAME Awards competition encompasses all facets of professional achievement, including product design, outdoor living, model complex landscaping, interior merchandising, sales office design, logo design, graphics, brochures, signage, advertisements, advertising campaigns, internet marketing, and more. With entry opportunities for both HBACA Builder members and trades, the awards ceremony will take place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at the JW Marriott Phoenix Desert Ridge, drawing over 600 attendees representing the Valley's best home builders.

The MAME Awards represent the pinnacle of recognition in Central Arizona's home building industry. But if you're wondering whether entering is worth your time and investment, here are four compelling reasons why the answer is a resounding yes.

Recognition That Elevates

This isn't just about being recognized—it's about being celebrated. The MAME Awards give you the platform to showcase the extraordinary hard work and talent that sets your company apart from the competition. When you win a MAME Award, you're not simply adding a trophy to your shelf; you're making a statement about excellence in your craft.

Marketing and Credibility Amplified

For minimal entry fees, you gain maximum exposure. An industry award is far more than recognition—it's a powerful third-party endorsement that serves as a seal of approval for your work. Winning a MAME Award can open doors to selling more homes and securing more clients. In an industry where trust and reputation are everything, this kind of credibility is invaluable.

Celebrate Employee and Team Success

The MAME Awards recognize and celebrate your team's achievements, creating a culture of appreciation that motivates top talent. When your employees see their work honored at an industry-wide level, it provides a compelling reason for your best professionals to continue growing within your company. Recognition matters, and the MAME Awards deliver it in a way that truly resonates.

Competitive Edge Unlocked

Are you truly among the best? The MAME Awards are one of the home building industry's most coveted honors. Competing gives you the chance to benchmark your work against Central Arizona's finest builders, designers, and sales professionals. Whether you win or simply participate, you're positioning your company among the elite.
