Grand Homes is the 2010 Builder of the Year!

At the historic Majestic Theatre in Dallas on March 20th, Grand Homes was recognized for the second year in a row, as Builder of the Year by the Greater Dallas Home Builder’s Association.

The McSAM Awards (Maximum Creativity in Sales and Marketing) were created in 1979 by the Sales and Marketing Council of the Home Builders Association of Greater Dallas in recognition of Sales and Marketing excellence. The prestigious McSAM Award is given to Builders, Developers and Associates who have made a significant and creative contribution in residential marketing through specific achievements during the year.

Grand Homes took home eight other awards, including five awards for Design and Architectural Design, Best Magazine Advertisement, Best Social Media Program and Sales Professional of the Year was awarded to Valente Martinez.

Last year, Grand Homes was Builder of the Year and other awards were given to Louise Lewis, Sales Professional of the Year, our Design Studio, design for the model at the Enclave of Emerald Forest and to Dawn Cawood for Marketing Professional of the Year.

We thank our Grand Homes team and our homeowners for making us Builder of the Year once again!

Grand Homes is the proud recipient of the Consumers' Choice Award!

Grand Homes received the 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Consumers' Choice Award for Business Excellence. The Consumers' Choice Award™ (CCA) was established in 1986 to identify and promote business excellence. The CCA program each year commissions a survey in which consumers are asked to identify their favorite businesses. Respondents are asked to consider criteria such as Value, Professionalism, and Service when making their choice.

Mr. Stephen Brooks accepts the award from Dr. Jeffrey Chernoff, President and Chairman of Consumers' Choice Award.

The Consumers' Choice Award™ is an initiative of Consumers' Choice Institute which has retained a leading independent research firm to conduct surveys in major Canadian and U.S. cities. It is unique in North America as the winners are determined by consumers and not by a panel of judges. It covers a broad range of categories of interest to both the public and business communities. Its purpose is to publicly identify those establishments that have been voted by consumers as being their choice for excellence. The Consumers' Choice Award™ is a most prestigious tribute to businesses that serve their clients well. The program is encouraged by all levels of government and by business leaders.
