Jim Chapman Receives Georgia Builder License

Atlanta, GA, September 13, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Jim Chapman, President of Jim Chapman Communities, Inc., personally received his Residential – Basic Contractor License in June from the Georgia State Licensing Board for Residential and General Contractors. This license enables Chapman to act as the Qualifying Agent for Jim Chapman Communities, Inc. and any of its current active adult projects.

“Effective July 1, 2008 the State of Georgia has required that all residential building permittees be licensed. Georgia is one of the last southern states to require that its residential contractors be licensed. This is a step in the right direction for the State of Georgia as it will help us better maintain the quality of our contractor’s work and the ethics behind their business practices,” said Chapman.

Having operated as a residential contractor in Georgia since July 1996, Chapman was able to apply for his license under the exam exemption privilege. He applied prior to the original application deadline of December 31, 2006. After requests for further information last fall the license was finally issued to Chapman in June.

Today, Jim Chapman Communities applies to the active adult market the same quality and service standards Jim Chapman developed while building luxury homes.
