Nimble Homes Wins Best Remote Housing Award

15-November-2009

The NT Housing and Industry Association (HIA) held their annual awards ceremony on 15th November at Sky City Casino. Companies from across the top end entered into different categories to establish the best of the best in residential construction from the Northern Territory. (See the HIA website for more information).

Nimble Homes was grateful the seating arrangement was no way related to the outcome of the night. Entering to find our seats were on one of the furthest tables from the stage our hearts and hopes sank. As it turned out we had other winners on the table and we also won ‘BEST REMOTE HOUSE’ for the ‘Melaleuca Homestead’. This was achieved in our first year of operation!
