Where do I go to submit entries?

Am I able to withdraw my entry after the deadline date?

You may withdraw your entry on or prior to Wednesday, July 15, 2026 without penalty. If you withdraw your show home after this date, your entry fee of $1,500.00 is forfeited unless another home is entered in place of the withdrawn entry. If you withdraw your show home after this date without finding a replacement, you will forfeit your entry fee of $1,500.00 and will be subject to additional fines. Replacement homes must be submitted to the MHBA no later than July 27, 2026 in order to receive a proof.
