RMS CONSTRUCTION WINS 4 HOBI AWARDS Including “BEST MID-SIZE
as published by The New Canaan Advertiser, 11/20/2006

STAMFORD, CT – New Canaan resident, Randy Salvatore, president of Stamford-based RMS Construction, was the recipient of four prestigious HOBI awards in 2006, once again sweeping all categories entered on behalf of his construction and development firm.

Sponsored annually by the Home Builders Association of Connecticut (HBA of CT), the HOBI awards recognize the state’s best construction and remodeling projects, judging member entries on excellence in craftsmanship, construction ingenuity and consumer value. In addition to taking home top honors for the best marketing program for a builder, the best ad and the best brochure promoting the company’s latest project, The Village at River’s Edge, RMS Construction was awarded “Best Mid-Size Attached Community” for The Village at Maple Pointe, a luxurious enclave of 63 distinctive residences in eleven three-story buildings in Stamford, Connecticut.

In presenting the awards to RMS Construction, Joanne Carroll, publisher and editor of Connecticut Builder magazine, and a member of the Board of Directors of HBA of CT, commented that “Randy Salvatore is one of the most talented and successful young builders in Connecticut. His projects consistently sell out in record time, serving as testimony to his impeccable building standards, his outstanding business sense and his ability to offer real value to today’s buyers.”

“This year we are delighted to recognize one of Randy’s latest projects, The Village at Maple Pointe, as the “Best Mid-Size Attached Community” for overall excellence in innovative construction and design, truly offering ‘Old World Charm in a New World Setting.’ This exceptional residential community speaks to Randy’s meticulous attention to detail and overall vision for luxurious in-town living at an affordable price. In fact, after only 6 weeks on the market, 85% of the units were pre-sold before construction began, and the remainder of the homes sold out before construction was completed.”

The awards committee was especially pleased with the overall look and feel of the community, noting that the homes were thoughtfully designed to blend into the surrounding New England countryside with manicured lawns, flagstone patios and old-style gas lamp lighting. They were also impressed with the upscale amenities and architectural styling which include balconies, columned entrances, shingle roofs, and stone-and-clapboard facades on the outside and custom-crafted cabinetry with granite countertops, marble baths and spacious living areas inside.

RMS Construction’s marketing awards recognized the company’s ability to successfully market its trademark “affordable luxury” branding in the firm’s newest residential development, The Village at River’s Edge. The company’s website, 4-color glossy brochure and print ads for this 170-home 9-acre residential community underscore the quality craftsmanship and exciting lifestyle amenities of the development and effectively position The Village at River’s Edge as Stamford’s premier in-town community. Two strategic ad placements in area publications generated unprecedented consumer interest, resulting in the immediate pre-sale of 140 of the available 170 residences before construction actually commenced.

The remaining available homes currently range in price from $500,000 to over $650,000. Construction is now underway and is expected to be completed by the end of 2007.

“Every project Randy has undertaken has delivered real value to the consumer,” stated Joanne Carroll. “He is truly a remarkable individual, a proven talent and an asset to the home building industry.”

One of Fairfield County’s premier construction companies, RMS also received three prior HOBI awards, including the 2004 “Best Multi-Family Community” for Norwalk’s The Phoenix on Isaac, the 2003 “Best Small Attached Community” for Vine Meadows, a townhouse development in Stamford, and 2002 “Special Recognition” for a 10,000+ square foot custom home in New Canaan for exceptional detailing, design and execution.
