Miromar Lakes Beach Golf Club in Miromar Lakes, Fla., was awarded Community of the Year (Domestic) honors during The Nationals gala at the NAHB International Builders' Show in Orlando earlier this month.

A residential waterfront community in Florida and a high-rise condominium in Toronto earned top domestic and international community honors at the National Sales and Marketing Awards gala — known as The Nationals — on Jan. 12 at the NAHB International Builders’ Show in Orlando.

One of the building industry’s most prestigious events, The Nationals by NAHB’s National Sales and Marketing Council honored the year’s most outstanding work in residential real estate sales, marketing and design.


Chaz, a high-rise condominium in Toronto, won the Community of the Year (International).

“The Nationals Awards has always celebrated the amazing talent in the home building industry, and this year is no different,” said Gaye Orr, Nationals chair and owner of Coldwell Banker Advantage New Homes. “New home sales and marketing professionals will continue to produce good work, no matter what the circumstances. This year’s winners truly deserve recognition for excelling during a time when the economy suggested they could not succeed.”

The gala attracted more than 500 building industry professionals to The Peabody Orlando during for a detailed look at the year’s most innovative and successful ideas.

A diverse panel of industry professionals from across the country selected Gold award winners from more than 700 entries.

Several top award winners are highlighted below:
