Lennars Central Florida Division to Host Realtor Appreciation Day Luncheons May 5 at Four Tampa and Lakeland Area Restaurants and Gardens


TAMPA, Fla. - Lennar’s Central Florida Division, which builds new town homes and single-family homes in 29 active neighborhoods in Hillsborough, Pasco, Hernando, Polk, Osceola, Orange, Lake, Seminole and Brevard counties, will host Realtor Appreciation Day luncheons May 5 in four Tampa and Lakeland area restaurants and gardens.


Mark Metheny, president of Lennar’s Central Florida Division, said local Realtors play a big role in Lennar’s new home sales.


“About half of all our new home sales start with local Realtors,” Metheny said. “We take great pains to reward them for their efforts,” he said

.
Metheny said Lennar plans to unveil a wide range of new incentives, bonuses and prizes for participating Realtors during its Realtor Appreciation Day luncheons.
In November, Lennar will reward 10 top Realtors with prizes and bonuses Metheny described as “breathtaking.”


Lennar’s Realtor Appreciation Day Luncheons are scheduled for the Green Iguana Restaurant in Brandon, Hollis Gardens in Lakeland, the Cantina Laredo in the Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel, and Up the Creek Restaurant in Lutz.

Hotels in New York, Washington, D.C., Florida offer Valuable Packages, Special Incentives to Improve Bookings during Summer Travel Season


Hotels in New York, Washington, D.C., Florida offer Valuable Packages, Special Incentives to Improve Bookings during Summer Travel Season


MAITLAND, Fla. - CRSHotels.com, one of the nation’s largest online select hotel reservations systems, reports that hotels in New York, Washington, D.C. and Florida are developing valuable packages and special incentives to improve bookings during the summer travel season.


“Many of the packages and special incentives are uniquely valuable because smaller, select hotels are competing with major chain properties for guests,” said Carlos Giraldo, president of CRSHotels.com.


The online booking agency, which posted sales worth more than $18 million last year, is working with hotel clients to develop and promote the packages, Giraldo said.
“Select hotels can offer substantially more value in a package or incentive offer because they aren’t governed by corporate mandates and chain hotel requirements,” Giraldo said.
