Winners will be announced at the organisation's Annual Lunch at the EICC on Friday 16 May 2014.
The winner of the headline 'Home Builder of the Year' award will be decided by the independent judging panel which is chaired by Sir Muir Russell, Chairman of the National House Building Council's (NHBC) Scottish Committee.
The recipient of the prestigious Lifetime Achievement award will be chosen by the Homes for Scotland Executive Committee.
Winners of both of these awards will also be announced at the event in May.
Chief Executive Philip Hogg said: "The Homes for Scotland awards address a range of issues high both on our own strategic agenda and those of our stakeholders. They also provide some extremely valuable learning opportunities and this is precisely what sets our scheme apart.
"It is unrivalled in terms of reach and credibility, and in addressing the issues that really matter to the industry's future health such as customer service, design and placemaking."
