Legacy Homes wins 2016 Best in Business Award

Legacy Homes of Huntsville has been named the 2016 Best in Business Award recipient for North Alabama, the only home builder to receive this distinction.

Last year, local consumers participated in a market survey and were asked to nominate businesses and professionals they felt were worthy of the distinction Best in Business. Once the results were compiled and tabulated, the Best in Business Award Association began an extensive selection process. Each nominee first had to demonstrate a positive track record of responding to complaints with the local Better Business Bureau, a prerequisite of the program.

Next, the owner or officer of the nominated business was required to participate in an assessment interview with Best in Business Award. Topics ranging from experience and hiring practices of their employees to liability insurance coverage and customer service procedures were discussed, just to name a few. Discerning the business’ overall reputation in the community is the final and most important step of the process, since Best in Business Award only designates one recipient per category. Feedback from other recipients, community leaders who would know the nominee’s background and how the business owner is viewed from a humanitarian aspect are used to gauge a nominee’s overall reputation in the community. For instance, insurance companies were asked which roofing contractors are on their preferred list. Home inspectors were questioned about the craftsmanship quality of area homebuilders; then general contractors were asked which subcontractors have a dependable track record.

“It is an honor to receive this award and is a testament to the hard work and commitment of our employees, building suppliers, subcontractors, preferred lenders, and our Realtor partners” said Jeff Korotky, president of Legacy Homes. “Our mission is to deliver the highest quality, energy-efficient homes with innovative designs at an extraordinary value.

When consumers call upon our recipients, they can do so with the assurance that these businesses are worthy of this notable distinction.”
