George Fugate, PExecutive Vice President/ Creative Director

George has been recognized nationally and internationally for creative excellence in advertising. He has won awards in nearly every major national advertising competition, but more importantly this very same work has added millions of dollars to his client’s bottom line. He has also been singled out as one of the best real estate ad people in America by the National Association of Home Builders for six consecutive years. George has been credited for revolutionizing real estate advertising and marketing. He changed this traditionally lack-luster price/item category by creating a new approach that connects with the consumer on an emotional level using “word pictures” and signature visuals. This approach, usually reserved for high-end packaged goods and luxury cars, has turned over 30 communities in Virginia to as far west as Las Vegas into one success story after another. In one year alone, George’s real estate work helped generate $150 million in sales, over 15,000 responses and record-breaking property tours. George has over 20 years in the hotel/resort industry.
