More than 55 homes, ranging from five to 13 bedrooms, are nearing completion and Encore s lifestyle centerpiece, the three-story, 15,900-square-foot clubhouse, was recently topped off.

Realizing the fantastic lifestyle at Encore Resort Homes at Reunion is an exciting and rewarding process. We are grateful for the support from the community and our owners, as well as the dedicated real estate professionals who helped generate record-breaking sales. We are extremely grateful for everyone s continued support. Welcome to Encore Resort Homes at Reunion! As the number one destination in 2015, Orlando sees more than 62 million visitors annually to enjoy the always-innovating entertainment choices, shopping, cultural and dining experiences under Florida s welcoming sun. Every year more themed attractions join the list of amazing experiences to keep Orlando visitors coming back for many years to come. Many of those vacationers prefer the luxury of a rental home rather than a hotel room. Encore s top location, less than five minutes from Disney, and product offerings with five to 13-bedroom luxury resort homes from the mid-$300s have proven to be exactly the right fit for buyers in this growing market segment. That has resulted in Encore s ranking as best-selling resort community in the Southeast with more than $100 million in resort vacation home sales and more than 200 homes sold to date. Phase I has been closed out and Phases II and III are currently in development. It s a huge accomplishment that sets the stage for continued success. 2

UPCOMING NEWS FALL ISSUE CONSTRUCTION UPDATE MIKE FRITZ PROJECT MANAGER With the first home closings slated for September/October the next milestone will be the completion of the amazing clubhouse. Encore s Construction Manager Mike Fritz has managed Encore Club s rise from the first bulldozer to its recent topping off ceremony of the three-story, 15,900-square-foot building! All steel work has been completed and the concrete decking is done. The framing of the main tower and two smaller towers has been finished and work progresses as planned on the second story. Fritz explained that this building is unique because of its functionality and design. The lobby will be very much like that of a top rated luxury hotel. But the Key West/Florida Coastal architecture and interior design add a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. We re creating an area where guests can decompress after their travels or a busy day, added Fritz. The large lobby features the check-in desk and sitting area on the right and a market for snacks, coffee and cookies on the opposite side. The lobby leads to the scenic outdoor patio as well as the kid s room and fitness center. Upstairs the full service restaurant with private dining and elegant bar area both overlook the outdoor patio and aqua park. There is also another convenient quick serve, grab-and-go service area. The third-story balconies and terraces offer additional opportunities to enjoy the stunning views of Encore Club at Reunion and its amenities.
