SEAL BEACH, Calif., April 13, 2022 (Newswire.com) - On March 8, 2022, The Olson Company was presented "The Eliant" award at the 27th Annual Homebuyers' Choice Awards. This is the third consecutive year that Olson has won this prestigious award for Overall Home Purchase & Ownership Experience (single-division builder) with more than 200 homes closed, a true testament to their passion for developing attainable housing in one of the most challenging states in the nation for first-time homebuyers. Eliant Inc. recognized The Olson Company and other homebuilders for their dedication to elevating the overall homebuyer experience, including purchase and design experience, construction quality, service, and communication.

Their dedication to promoting walkable and eco-friendly living in Southern California has been proven for more than 30 years. Olson communities offer homebuyers an opportunity to reside in convenient locations that are close to retail, dining, recreation, entertainment, proximity to employment centers and amenities, encouraging healthier lifestyles in easily walkable locations.

"It is an honor to be recognized by our homeowners through Eliant Inc. and the Annual Homebuyers' Choice Awards for the organization's commitment to delivering extraordinary service from all aspects of the purchase and homeownership experience," said, Scott Laurie, CEO and President of The Olson Company. 

"These awards are the benchmark of our company's success and we are extremely proud of our team of professionals who pay close attention to each detail and process," noted, Bill Holford, President, Olson Communities.

This year proudly marks The Olson Company's seventh time since 2012 to win "The Eliant" - an accomplishment that Laurie said, "is made possible by our thoughtfully planned communities and exceptional customer service. We take great pride in the work required to achieve this award."

The Eliant Homebuyers' Choice Awards recognizes superior customer experience in the homebuilding industry, powered by the values, opinions, and experiences of more than 185,000 recent homebuyers from 190 major homebuilders across the U.S.
