Industry Focus: Builders and Developers
Originally published: https://nevadabusiness.com/2026/03/industry-focus-builders-developers-6/
Building in Nevada has never been easy. From the scorching temperatures of southern Nevada to the rocky terrain of northern Nevada, developing the Silver State is not for the faint of heart. The challenge has only been made greater by a lack of talent, unavailable land and red tape leaving even the most experienced wondering what Nevada’s future holds.
Recently a group of builders and developers met at a roundtable sponsored by Nevada State Bank to discuss the many challenges their industry is facing and the outlook for Nevada. Connie Brennan, publisher and CEO of Nevada Business Magazine, served as moderator for the event. These monthly roundtables bring together different industries to discuss issues and solutions.
