TORONTO, ONTARIO, APRIL 25, 2008 - The Building Industry & Land Development Association (BILD) today honoured the year’s most outstanding builders, communities, projects and people at the 28th Annual Home Builder Awards. Empire Communities’ Natalia Diamond, Kristy Anderson and Jennifer Kehoe were recognized as “Best High Rise Sales Team” for their outstanding success at Beyond The Sea and Star Tower Condominiums.

Based on the collective abilities of the team, overall sales success of the community, testimonials from existing purchasers and individual assessments by mystery shoppers, this award recognizes exceptional talent and relationship building in a competitive real estate market.

In addition, this is the first time in many years that BILD has bestowed this honour on a developer’s sales team versus an outside broker/agency. It is truly a testament to the unwavering professionalism and caring of this dynamic trio, and embodies Empire’s mission to set the standard of excellence for the new home building industry.

Visit this award-winning team at the Beyond The Sea and Star Tower Presentation Centre located at 2200 Lake Shore Boulevard West, Suite 102 (just east of Park Lawn) in Etobicoke.
