United Group Receives Two Awards At NAHB Best Of 55+ Housing Awards

Troy, NY – United Group was announced as a gold award winner for two NAHB Best of 55+ awards at the NAHB International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas. The NAHB Best of 55+ Housing Awards are the industry’s only national awards program that honors superiority in building, design, the lifestyle and marketing of housing, and more. The United Group of Companies, Inc. won gold in two categories – one featuring Diamond Oaks Village and the other showcasing the SUN® (Senior Umbrella Network) Program.

Diamond Oaks Village has been recognized for their on-site clubhouse, landing the gold in the “Best 55+ Clubhouse on the Boards” category. Located in Bonita Springs, FL, Diamond Oaks Village is a luxurious apartment home community currently under construction and will be available to active and independent adults 55 and older. Diamond Oaks Village surpassed the other nominees with its enticing 14,000 square foot clubhouse and upscale amenities, including a dog park, putting green, outdoor gated pool and spa, solarium with bistro bar, and more. The community broke ground this past November and is expected to be complete in early 2017.

The SUN® Program won gold for the “Best 55+ Lifestyle Program” category. The SUN Program is United Group’s signature seven-prong model that provides residents an array of services and activities designed to foster and support independent living and to enhance the active-senior lifestyle. SUN Program events, seminars, and activities are designed around topics around health and wellness, education and lifelong learning, community and friendship, and more. The SUN Program is featured at all 13 housing properties in United Group’s senior portfolio.

Last year, Sandalwood Village won the silver award for “Best Independent Living Community on the Boards.” Sandalwood Village is another active and independent community for adults 55 and older, located in Naples, FL. A grand opening ceremony was held this past November.
