This is the

second major award this year for Jones, as he was earlier selected as

2000 Builder Member of the Year by the Home Builders Association of Georgia.

That award was given during the Annual Installation and Awards Banquet

at the statewide association's 46th Annual Convention, held recently in

Orlando.

Jones, who

resides in the Lake Spivey area of Clayton County, has worked in construction

for most of his life, founding Tim Jones Communities just over 20 years

ago. Presently the leading builder in the Clayton/Henry area of Metro

South, the company has produced approximately 2,000 new homes over the

years and is currently building over 300 homes a year ranging in price

from the low $100,000s to over $300,000. In recent years, the company

has consistently set new records each year in new home sales and closings.

The Tim Jones

organization, which has expanded to over 200 employees over the years,

not only builds homes and develops communities, but also has land surveying,

engineering and design, pipe and grading, and real estate sales divisions.

Jones was the

1998-199 president of the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association and

is also a past president of the Metro South Home Builders Association.

Tim Jones Communities has received several coveted Professionalism Awards

from the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association and the Atlanta Sales

and Marketing Council, and it is currently ranked No. 15 in the Atlanta

Business Chronicle's listing of "Atlanta's Top 25 Home Builders."

Jones and his

company have been recognized with the prestigious Diamond Builder award

from 2/10 Home Buyers Warranty (HBW), the nation's leading 10-year home

buyer's warranty program. The award represents HBW's highest honor and

is bestowed upon builders who have a proven track record for superior

construction standards, design quality, and outstanding customer service.

In addition,

Tim Jones Communities Inc. was among the first group of Metro Atlanta

area builders to receive the prestigious Certified Professional Home Builder

designation. The Certified Professional Home Builder program was instituted

and is administered by The Housing Institute Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary

of the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association.

The company

is also listed as a Builder of Distinction by American Home Guides and

is featured on that organization's website.
