Get Your Winning Edge… Enter the 2008 Best of 50+ Housing Awards Today!

In today’s challenging housing market, you need a winning edge — anything to distinguish yourself from the competition.

Enter the National Association of Home Builders’ 2009 Best of 50+ Housing Awards — the industry’s most prestigious national awards program honoring excellence in building, design and marketing of housing for boomers and beyond. Among the 40 categories is the Best Renovated 50+ Housing Project for remodelers or builders interested in universal design and aging in place.

Winning a Best of 50+ Housing award can help you:

Get your future customers and clients off the fence. In a crowded market, a national award will communicate loud and clear that you truly are “the best of the best” in 50+ housing.
Communicate to your current customers and contacts they made the right choice. Everyone wants to be associated with a winner!
Recognize and reward your project team. Entering — and winning — is a great way to motivate your staff.

Enter the Best of 50+ Housing Awards today! Take advantage of the new, easy online process. Apply online by Friday, Dec. 5. Join the NAHB 50+ Housing Council to save on your entry fees.

Visit www.nahb.org/50plusawards for the complete list of categories, including active adult, service-enriched, multifamily, mixed-use, renovated and repositioned projects as well as marketing. You’ll also find a copy of the call for entries and a list of frequently asked questions.
