LAKEWOOD RANCH, Fla. (May 12, 2022) – Neal Communities, Southwest Florida’s premier homebuilder, announced its southern division received an Avid Benchmark Award and several employees throughout the company received Annual Service Awards from Avid Ratings.
Avid Ratings offers a software industry solution that home industry professionals use to measure, understand, and improve their performance at every customer touchpoint. The 19th Annual Avid Awards program recognized homebuilders throughout the U.S. for scoring highest with their customers on homebuying experience surveys.
Award winners are chosen based on results received from some of the largest publicly traded NYSE/NASDAQ builders, North America’s largest private builders and hundreds of small volume and custom builders from coast to coast. This year’s program had 437 qualifying builders from all over the United States and Canada and covers homebuyer data from January to December 2021.
“We are proud to announce our Avid Award-winning customers this year and congratulate them on their commitment to providing exceptional customer experience. Although the homebuilding industry continued to face challenges in labor and supply shortages this past year, our customers were determined to provide high-quality service for their buyers,” said Aaron Everson, CEO of Avid Ratings. “Their perseverance in difficult times and dedication to service excellence are clearly reflected in their well-deserved honors.”
Neal Communities’ Southern Division oversees the construction of communities in Lee and Collier Counties.
