We have thrived because of your hard work and dedication. I am grateful for your tremendous efforts and wish you all a joyous holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Sincerely,

Be the Solution Winners
Congratulations to the following team members for taking extraordinary measures to
Be the Solution
at their communities:
Amaisa Scott, Relocation Specialist, Fort Chaplin
Amaisa was nominated by her Regional Manager, Lizzie Smith-Brown, for her commitment to customer service and her strong work ethic. Amaisa is constantly on the go and never stops until she leaves for the day. She is constantly helping residents move into their temporary guest suites, and back into their renovated units. She takes time to make sure all residents fully understand the (often complicated) relocation process. Recently, she stayed well past closing to assist a resident, and ensure the entire schedule stayed on track. Amaisa exemplifies our teamwork core value in everything she does. Thank you for being the solution!
Eric Taylor, Maintenance Supervisor, Luna Pointe
Eric was nominated by his Community Manager, Rachel Bryson, for going above and beyond his normal duties and being a team player. Recently, Luna Pointe has been experiencing a ton of traffic from prospective residents stopping in for packages. On a day where the office had more traffic than usual, Eric stepped in and gave a tour to a prospect and ultimately gained his business. The gentleman that Eric helped explained to Rachel that he was blown away by Eric's initiative and know he had found the right community for him. Thanks to Eric's "teamwork" attitude, Luna Pointe is able to continue to shine as a great community that always provides world class customer service.
Jae Mitchell, Leasing Specialist, Banyan Grove
Jae was nominated by his Community Manager, Jessie Sholar, for his "go getter" attitude and strong work ethic. Jae is new to the industry and since hired in August, he has been an unstoppable leasing agent. His natural ability to connect with anyone that walks through our door and his ability to sell just about anything, has contributed so much to our office. His first week, Jae achieved 4 leases in one week. Along with helping increase revenue for our property for being a rock star leasing agent, his personality and hunger to add positivity to our office is greatly appreciated. His willingness to learn the industry, along with securing leases week by week, as well as maintaining his day to day responsibilities, exceeds our expectations for a new leasing agent.
Chris Smith, System Administrator for IT, Corporate
Chris was nominated by Mary Mitchum, Marketing Manager, for his helpful and dependable work ethic. Mary wrote: "Chris was able to help the team hours early before the Holiday party and ensured everything went smoothly. I did not have to worry because I knew I could depend on Chris if anything were to go wrong. Every time I interact with Chris, he doesn't hesitate to help out. We are lucky to have his knowledge and helpful attitude at TFJG"
