At  CFCAR’s 25th Annual Hallmark Awards, which was held at The Monroe in Downtown Orlando's Creative Village on June 21, 2023, the following individuals were honored and celebrated as award recipients:

Wilbur Strickland Lifetime Achievement Award:

Longtime CCIM member and downtown developer Craig Ustler, CCIM, MAI, master developer of Creative Village, was honored with the Wilbur Strickland Lifetime Achievement Award. 

“For more than a decade, Craig has focused on urban infill projects, as advocated by the new urbanism planning movement,” CFCAR President Dan Lyonnais said. “Craig Ustler’s passion and respect for Orlando residents reminds us to focus on the try why. He challenges us to do better in this business. As we push to grow and build in Central Florida, Craig challenges us to reimagine real estate as a way of building both structures and the community.”

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer was in attendance at the event to celebrate Ustler's contributions as well as the Hallmark Award finalists and recipients and said the venue choice of The Monroe was appropriate because it honors the realization of their shared vision for Creative Village.


Deal of the Year:

The transformation of the former KOA Campground on Narcoossee Road into a vibrant mixed-use community dubbed "Mission Pointe" on the shore of Lake Whippoorwill took three years of meticulous attention, and it won Trevor Hall and his team from Colliers recognition for the Deal of the Year.  The combined total of the sales involved in the transformation was $27 million.
