Awards Recognize Achievement in Sales and Marketing

From architectural achievements to interior merchandising, the year’s best in residential real estate sales, marketing and design were recognized last month at the 23rd Annual National Sales and Marketing Awards Gala, which was held in conjunction with the International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas.

Hosted by the NAHB National Sales and Marketing Council (NSMC), the awards, known as “The Nationals,” attracted more than 1,000 building industry professionals.

“These awards highlight the outstanding achievements of sales and marketing professionals around the country,” said Michael Copp, executive director of NSMC. “This event exemplifies the innovation that’s driving future trends within our industry.”

The Nationals recognizes exceptional new home sales and marketing efforts and is the country’s largest established new home sales and marketing competition. The ceremony also honors “Legends of Residential Marketing” — builders and marketers who stand apart as innovative leaders in the industry.
