Walters Group, a multi-disciplined residential and commercial real estate organization, was honored with 11 prestigious awards at the New Jersey Apartment Association (NJAA) Garden State Awards dinner held at the Ocean Place Resort and Spa in Long Branch this fall.
Four Walters Group apartment communities Cornerstone at Barnegat, Cornerstone At Lacey, Laurel Oaks and Whispering Hills were recognized for Excellence in Property Management. Cornerstone at Barnegat and Cornerstone at Lacey garnered additional awards for Curb Appeal and Green Building. The Curb Appeal category recognizes properties for their beautiful and well-kept grounds. Both the Barnegat and Lacey developments were built to LEED standards, making them more energy efficient than conventional non-green housing.
Walters Group employees also took home three individual property management awards. Theresa Cooke, Randi DeGraw and Myra Hamilton were honored at the event.
We thank the NJAA for recognizing the efforts of our dedicated team that works hard to deliver exceptional resident experiences at all of our communities, said Ed Walters, Jr., president and founder of Walters Homes. We are committed to building and operating high-quality sustainable housing that makes a positive social and economic impact on the lives of residents.

He continued, This award is direct recognition of Walters Groups commitment to resident satisfaction and professionalism.
