Tim Jackson, CGB, GMB, CGP, of Tim Jackson Custom Homes Inc. was installed Nov. 21 as vice president/secretary of the Texas Association of Builders. 2014 officers were installed at TAB’s Excellence in Leadership Dinner at the Driskill Hotel in Austin on Nov. 21. Texas Commissioner of Agriculture Todd Staples conducted the installation ceremony. Jackson served as president of the Dallas BA in 2009.
“One major issue facing our industry is the labor shortage,” Jackson stated. “We have to start pushing for more vocational training in our high schools and community colleges that will provide training and education for skills specific to our industry.”
Jackson notes that another huge concern that TAB has is the direction that energy codes are heading. “Our Association (both local and state) needs to push for statewide legislation that provides a cap for the required energy efficiency of new homes,” he said.
Jackson has been a member of the Dallas Builders Association since 1997. He builds primarily in the Fairview, Lucas, Prosper and McKinney areas. His company has won numerous awards, including the ARC Custom Builder of the Year and the APEX Award, which recognizes a builder’s professionalism in doing business with associate members.
He has chaired the Dallas BA’s Parade of Homes, Membership Development Committee and Membership Retention Committee. He served as president of the North Dallas/Collin County Division, where he chaired the golf tournament for four years and the division’s Habitat for Humanity project. He is currently building a home in Little Elm for a wounded veteran through Operation Finally Home.
Jackson is also a national director and an active participant in HOMEPAC.
He graduated from Texas Tech University in 1985 with a BBA degree in finance.
