PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARDS AND INDUSTRY AWARDS OF EXCELLENCE

Colorado Springs, CO (October 2, 2025) — The Housing & Building Association of Colorado Springs (HBA) announced the winners of the People’s Choice Awards and the Industry Awards of Excellence for the 2025 Parade of Homes. This year’s featured homes ranged in price from the upper 300’s to more than $3.8 million.  16 builders presented 32 homes located throughout the Pikes Peak Region for the 71st Annual Parade of Homes, including 4 featured communities: Percheron, Wolf Ranch, Sterling Ridge, and Gold Hill.

Industry professionals from around the Unites States, including Colorado, judged the homes for the Industry Awards based on criteria established for that award category. The coveted People’s Choice Awards are voted on by Parade of Homes attendees who visited each home in that price category. Both the People’s Choice and the Industry Awards are broken out into multiple price categories. Industry Awards are then further divided among the following six categories: Best Kitchen, Best Primary Suite, Best Interior Design, Best Exterior, Best Architectural Exterior and Best Overall Home.  

On Wednesday, October 1, recipients of both the People’s Choice and Industry Awards were honored by the HBA at the Parade of Homes Awards Banquet held at DoubleTree Colorado Springs with more than 230 people in attendance.
