The Nationals Call for Entries – Deadline Extended to Oct. 1

The deadline for entries for The Nationals — The National Sales and Marketing Awards — the largest and most prestigious competition for new-home sales and marketing professionals and communities — has been extended to Friday, Oct. 1 because of the hurricanes in the Southeast.  

Celebrating its 24th year in 2005, The Nationals are presented by NAHB’s National Sales and Marketing Council.

Held each year at the International Builders’ Show, The Nationals honors the best in architectural achievement, design, advertising and promotion, interior merchandising, Web site design and more, and is open to individual sales and marketing professionals, home builders, associates and sales and marketing councils.

The Nationals features gold, silver, individual, council and regional awards in 45 categories.  

The Nationals winners will be showcased in national, regional and local publications. In addition, selected winners will be spotlighted in BUILDER magazine and by more than 26 publishers of New Homes Guide.

For entry and ticket information and a listing of last year’s award winners, visit www.TheNationals.com.
