GM NAHB $500 Private Offer Details for 2009


GM NAHB $500 Private Offer Details for 2009

 Yes, the GM program is back in 2009 and even better than ever! The big news for 2009 is that GM has increased the royalty by 50% to $150 per vehicle. For the local HBA’s in a state where their state is not signed up for revenue sharing, that means you will receive $75 for every vehicle your members purchase in 2009.

The full details for 2009 are available at www.nahb.org/ma, but some frequently asked questions are featured below.

Who is eligible for the GM program?

Builder, Associate and Affiliate members are eligible for the program. The member of record for the company is the person who must do the purchasing of the vehicle.

Is there a limit to the number of vehicles members can purchase during the term of the program?

No, there is no limit to the number of vehicles members can purchase.  The only requirement is that members take possession of the vehicle by January 4, 2010.

What do members need to present to their dealers to receive the $500 discount?

Members must present their authorization ID number. They may obtain this from www.nahb.org/ma or through the GM call center 866.760.7070. One authorization ID number is needed per vehicle so if a member purchases 3 vehicles at one time, he/she will need 3 authorization ID numbers.

Are HBA employees eligible for the $500 private offer?

Yes, HBA employees are eligible for the $500 private offer. Please follow the same procedure you would for giving a new member access to the program.
