Alexander Akel Included in Pro Builder 40 Under 40 List
Alexander Akel Included in Pro Builder 40 Under 40 List

LAKE WORTH, Fla., April 15, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- One trait this year's honorees demonstrated was the ability to pivot during the pandemic. Their accomplishments included generating record sales volume using a variety of tactics: launching an all-virtual home shopping experience, doubling leads by creating and growing online sales teams, building a digital platform that targets buyer groups, and training staff in how to engage prospects during an online buying journey.

Many "firsts" were also achieved by this group of the industry's next generation of leaders, featuring women who became their company's first CEO; first vice president of purchasing; or senior manager for a national builder. A number of this year's awardees rose from modest stations, such as the greeter who learned how to sell homes by watching how the sales team operated, going on to become a top sales producer, division manager, and ultimately developing her company's training regimen for new salespeople. This year's class also includes a company vice president who started as a new home technician and a project director who worked his way up from entry-level draftsman.

Despite all of the challenges posed by 2020’s pandemic, our 2021 class rose to the occasion, developing new processes and procedures and helping to ensure their companies continued to be dynamic and successful, says Executive Editor Denise Dersin.

Alexander Akel has taken the real estate industry by storm through the implementation of innovative technology and procedures to streamline the homebuying process for the Akel Homes' customers. He continuously strives to create a unique customer experience for his buyers by actively listening to their ever-growing needs. With over 4,000 homes underneath their belt, Akel Homes has sought out to meet the demand by specializing in intricately designing homes with superior quality materials, open floorplan concepts, chef-inspired kitchens, and expansive living areas.

In addition, the honorees are very active in giving back to their communities. Among their off-the-clock activities are building and remodeling homes for single mothers, needy families and veterans, volunteering at food pantries, fundraising for charities and nonprofits, and coaching youth sports.

"Despite all of the challenges posed by 2020's pandemic, our 2021 class rose to the occasion, developing new processes and procedures and helping to ensure their companies continued to be dynamic and successful," says Executive Editor Denise Dersin. "Their achievements, both at work and in their communities, are remarkable and inspiring."
