“We are very proud to acknowledge Edgewater as the top performing community with this award from J Turner Research,” said Joseph Batdorf, principal of the company.  “Delivering a positive living experience for residents is a challenging and all encompassing objective which directly influences a resident’s satisfaction, renewal intent and likelihood to refer a friend – three key performance indicators directly tied to a community’s ability to deliver exceptional customer service in today’s competitive marketplace.” Data for the rankings was collected by J Turner Research based on a random monthly sampling of resident responses to a variety of customer service related questions.  Participating respondents are given the opportunity to share feedback regarding their interaction with community personnel, willingness to provide a referral to the community and satisfaction with maintenance requests, etc. Responses are converted into a unique TALi score and ranked on a scale of 0-10.  Communities achieving a TALi score equal to or greater than 7.5 are recognized as part of an elite ranking of communities for their ability to deliver exceptional customer service to residents throughout the year.
