This month, Carrie Roeger accepted the Lee Evans Award for Management Excellence on behalf of Windsong Properties at the Builder Partnerships Executive Summit Award Banquet in Breckenridge, Colorado. The prestigious Lee Evans Award is given annually to one builder who displays exceptionally sound management principles and reflects the high standards that builders are encouraged to reach.

The award was created by Lee S. Evans to recognize building companies which have made significant progress in improving their management process to streamline their organizations and achieve superior profits, while delivering a high-quality product to buyers. As one of the first management trainers for the home building industry, Evans strongly believed in the importance of management education for home builders. Furthermore, by controlling costs and improving variances, companies could achieve greater revenue.

Windsong Properties designs and builds homes that fit the preferences and desires of its residents who are active older adults. Co-owners Mark Carruth and Steve Romeyn founded the company based on the idea that downsizing, moving, or transitioning from a family home to your next home should be an enjoyable and exciting experience, focusing on improving the homeowner’s quality of life.  As active adults themselves, the co-founders share more than three decades of building experience and a personal understanding of active adult homebuying needs and are considered industry leaders in this market segment.

“Our desire and sole focus for the last 15 years has been building homes that allow our residents to live the life they’ve always imagined,” says Carruth. “Design elements such as ground floor masters, zero-step doorways, and open floor plans help make living and entertaining easy, and safety is one less worry.”
