    Code of Ethics & Membership Agreement

    ARTICLE III - CODE OF ETHICS:
    Upon acceptance for membership in the Association, each new member shall be deemed to have subscribed to the following Code of Ethics:

    As a member of the Shore Builders Association of Central New Jersey, Inc., I believe and affirm that:

    • Home Ownership should be affordable to every American family.

      1. Every consumer is entitled to construction in accordance with generally accepted practices of the industry, whether of a residential, commercial or industrial nature.

      2. All development should be well designed to be in harmony with sound, environmental and community planning.

    • All Members shall adhere to the following principles and policies:

      1. Honesty, integrity and fair business practice.

      2. Concern for the environment shall be built into all development and related services.

      3. Provide quality construction, products and services consistent with the standards required by the Association and at reasonable cost to the consumer through encouragement of research and development of new construction materials, building techniques and products.

      4. Support all the programs, policies and activities of Local, State and National Associations.

      5. Refrain from engaging in unprofessional, threatening, offensive or otherwise inappropriate conduct toward the Association’s employees, directors, officers and guests or toward fellow members.

      6. Read and understand the bylaws of the Shore Builders Association of Central New Jersey, Inc.

    I understand that in addition to membership dues, the New Jersey Builders Association (NJBA) will assess and collect unit dues on homes built, payable upon closing(s) at a rate of $45 per $100,000 of sales price. NJBA’s advocacy efforts save you money on every unit you build and unit dues fund the continuation of these efforts to allow you to build more units. Beginning in 2024, each builder member receives an annual credit of $1000 towards their payment of unit dues and will only be invoiced for any unit dues owed in excess of $1000. If you have questions regarding unit dues, please contact NJBA at 609-587-5577.
