Awards » NDG Communications, Inc.

How many agencies in our business get to work with the best of the very best? N DG Communications congratulates our client Mid-Atlantic Builders on being named Builder of the Year by the Maryland-National Capital Building Industry Association.

We are exceedingly proud to work with such a remarkable company that always goes above and beyond in quality and service for their customers, and happy that they have received the recognition they so rightly have earned and deserved.

So to the entire Mid-Atlantic Builders team, we wish you sincerest congratulations on your 9th Builder of the Year award!

Last night, the Northern Virginia Building Industry Association and the Maryland National Capital Building Industry Association held the 3^rd Annual Great American Living Awards. Hundreds of the real estate industry’s best from across the DC region came together at the Sheraton Premier at Tyson’s Corner to celebrate excellence in real estate marketing, design, architecture, and sales.

It was a big night for our client, K. Hovnanian Homes, as they took home three awards for:

Best Website for a National Builder: High Performance Home/Nate Website
Best Online Advertising for Ad Campaign: Annual Cost Savings Banners
Award of Merit for Online Social Media Campaign: High Performance Home/Nate Social Media Campaign

Congratulations to K. Hovnanian Homes. We are proud of the collaborative effort and grateful to be able to share this recognition with you!

Our client, Stanley Martin Homes was recognized by their industry peers at this year’s GALA Awards and brought home the award for Best Printed Brochure for an Individual Community for their Selma Estates community.

Congratulations to Stanley Martin Homes. We are honored to have been a part of this wonderful collaboration with the fabulous team at Stanley Martin Homes!

NDG Communications congratulates Steve Alloy, President of Stanley Martin Homes, and his team for the recognition of their ongoing success as reported in Builder Magazine and at BuilderOnline.com. We’re very proud to work with such a phenomenally exceptional homebuilder.

In the new article, Mr. Alloy shared details about a four-pronged attack that put his company back on track. The major elements include buying land where the jobs are, becoming a best-in-class manufacturer, creating leading designs for the best value, and focusing on a single market.

“The company, which now targets first-time move-up buyers, changed its house designs based on consumer research….This is the ‘freshest’ array of homes his company has offered, says Alloy, with 80 percent of its house plans less than two years old.”

Congratulations again to Steve and his entire team at Stanley Martin Homes. Click here to read the entire article.
