Industry talk

From earthy tones to inflation ’ s impact , Omar Eldin shares with Modern Home Builders his reflections on current sector trends

There ’ s a lot more going on in the homebuilding industry than meets the eye . From trends to taxes , 2023 is proving to be a packed year , and for those looking to stay abreast of what ’ s happening , we quiz Omar Eldin over at Revere Real Estate on the current ins and outs of the custom-building sector .

How did your career journey bring you to the role of Business Development Manager at Revere Real Estate ?
I studied business administration with an emphasis in both marketing and entrepreneurship at the University of California Irvine , which gave me the skills necessary to excel in this role . As a Business Development Manager , you really have to be a jack of all trades . You have your fingers dipped in all different segments of the business . The main goal is to get the name of your business out there . We want people to hear the name Revere and immediately think of high quality , top tier , custom homes and a professional , competent , ambitious team building them .
For a broad scope of the industry , what are your reflections on how the custom home build sector evolved over the last three or so years ?
The sector has changed substantially . The topics that come to mind include increased subcontractor cost for labor , increased material costs , and the aesthetics . In addition , I think that having virtual reality included in the custom home building process , so that the homeowner could see and feel what the finished product will look like , has also been really impactful .
