Brian Shanks is the Manager of National Accounts and Governmental Affairs for Beazer Homes. Beazer is a production home building company based in Atlanta, Georgia. The company is the 11th largest homebuilder in the United States and now operates in 13 states.
Brian’s construction career has been aligned with energy-efficient and performance building in the world of large production builders, and now he is part of the team at Beezer Homes that is continuing the home builder’s evolution from building 100% EnergyStar home to committing to build and certify DOE Zero Energy Ready Homes.
When they had a presence in Colorado, my former companies did all the energy code and EnergyStar compliance work for Beezer Homes, so it was particularly interesting for me to learn more about Beazer’s continued efforts to build high performance homes in the production building arena.
Thank you, Brian, for sharing your building journey with us and for explaining some of the unique issues that production builders face.
