Team BAM was in full attendance for the 34th annual BILD awards last Friday. The whole team was thrilled to be part of such a magnificent event. The room was packed with home-building and land development industry professionals – and we couldn’t have been more excited to be part of it!

We’re pleased to announce that two of our clients took home BILD awards from the ceremony. This year’s Green Builder of the Year (Low-Rise) was awarded to Empire Communities. This award recognizes outstanding leadership in green building practices. Empire Communities demonstrates dedication to sustainability from the site planning stage through to their home designs and construction, and we’re proud to be part of their team when it comes to strategizing and marketing this green edge. Way to go, Empire Communities!

Empire Communities Wins Green Builder of the Year

Empire

I am so proud to announce that our client Empire Communities won Ontario Green Builder of the Year at the 2013 EnerQuality Awards of Excellence last night. Sponsored by the Ontario Home Builders’ Association (OHBA), the Green Builder of the Year award recognized this outstanding homebuilder for their leadership in environmental responsibility. I would like to sincerely congratulate Empire Communities on their green and sustainability commitment.

As our industry becomes greener and more environmentally conscious, it gives me great pleasure to stand behind homebuilders that are leading this kind of change and to help market the tremendous advantages to homeowners. At BAM, we stand behind the vision for a healthier living environment and we are honoured to be a part of their success. Again, congratulations to Empire Communities. We wish you continued success for the year to come.

Empire Communities is also a finalist for the Canadian Home Builders’ Association (CHBA) Green Builder of the Year.  Stay tuned, as it will be announced at the CHBA Conference in April.

Our Clients Empire Communities and Brookfield Residential are Nominated for EnerQuality Energy Star Awards

I will never grow tired of hearing about our clients being nominated for awards. Not only does it mean we’ve gone after the right clients, it means we’ve done our job marketing them.

Last week, two of our biggest clients, Empire Communities and Brookfield Residential, were each nominated for EnerQuality’s ENERGY STAR for New Homes Builder of the Year award. Empire is also nominated for the Building Innovation award and the Ontario Green Builder of the Year award. I want to take this opportunity to say congratulations.

More and more, our industry is becoming greener and more environmentally conscious about building homes. Not only is this great for the environment, but homeowners benefit by living in energy efficient homes that produce higher energy savings, better air quality and fewer emissions. This message is easy for BAM to stand behind.

We’re thrilled to be a part of our clients’ success in marketing green and building a reputation for designing sustainable homes for their homeowners. While we share their vision and message, it really is the builders standing behind their commitment to advancing homebuilding and for that, they’re being recognized. Congratulations again. BAM is proud to be part of your continuing success.

Our Clients Empire Communities and Brookfield Residential are Finalists for 5 CHBA Awards!

I’m proud to announce that our clients Empire Communities and Brookfield Residential are finalists for 5 Canadian Home Builders’ Association (CHBA) National SAM awards this year.

First, Orchard Ridge Homes and Brookfield Residental’s Treetops community is nominated for Best Project Signage and Logo, Best Website and the prestigious Marketing Excellence Award.

Empire Communities is nominated for the highly coveted Green Home Award for their Manhattan model at Imagine, a new home community in Niagara Falls which we opened for Empire this year, and which is also up for Best Project Signage and Logo.

The Manhattan home showcases Empire Communities’ latest green initiative: geothermal technology! Geothermal energy can save homeowners up to 80 per cent in total heating and cooling costs over traditional home energy costs, and is offered as an option on all new homes at Empire’s Imagine community as part of a progressive new green initiative on their part.

Both clients are familiar with winning; Brookfield won the Marketing Excellence Award from CHBA last year for their Pathways in Caledon East community which we marketed, and Empire won the ENERGY STAR for New Homes Builder of the Year at the EnerQuality Awards in 2011 and was again nominated in 2012, demonstrating that they’re industry leaders when it comes to green home building.

I always enjoy these types of posts and seeing my clients and employees recognized for their success and hard work. Each time a client of ours is nominated, it’s a testament to the great things we do at BAM and to our clients’ hard work and dedication to building and providing Ontario families the best homes possible.

Congratulations again to Brookfield Residential and Empire Communities. (You can see all the finalists here.)

Go BAM go!
