SUNRISE, FL, January 03, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- From groundbreaking communities to meaningful local initiatives, GL Homes has spent 2025 building more than homes by shaping the future of thoughtful, purpose-driven Florida neighborhoods. Misha Ezratti, president of GL Homes, reflected on a year marked by growth and company milestones, expressing gratitude for staff members, partners, and the communities that helped shape a successful year.

Guided by the shared vision of Misha Ezratti and his father, Itzhak Ezratti, founder of GL Homes, the company remains committed to creating thriving communities while giving back to Florida communities.

GL Homes' Year in Review

Throughout 2025, GL Homes achieved significant key milestones, including the completion of new communities in Boca Raton, and Naples, delivering hundreds of high-quality homes to Florida families. GL Homes also introduced a new standard for multigenerational living at APEX at Avenir in Palm Beach Gardens, with the debut of a flexible floorplan option with a multigenerational suite to meet evolving family needs.

Responsible development remained a priority for GL Homes, with land donations for essential roadways and community spaces, as well as ongoing efforts to preserve natural landscapes and green pathways. Wellness-focused amenities, such as walking trails and lifestyle programming, were incorporated in communities to support connection, health, and longevity among residents. These milestones reflect both Florida's real estate growth and Misha Ezratti's leadership in driving thoughtful, forward-looking development.

A Culture of Gratitude

Misha Ezratti's leadership emphasized appreciation for the people behind the company's success. His gratitude message underscores that integrity and service guide the company's culture, and he credits the hard work and collaboration of staff members, trade partners, and communities for helping create meaningful impact across Florida.

Giving Back: A Year of Philanthropy

GL Homes philanthropy remained central to the company's mission in 2025, focusing on breaking the cycle of homelessness, combating hunger, and supporting children and education. Through the annual CAN-tastic Competition, part of the Summer of Service initiative with the Harry Chapin Food Bank, employees built display homes from canned goods and collected 1,000 cans of food along with a donation to support hunger relief.

Working with The Lord's Place and fully sponsoring the Meal Mobile, GL Homes volunteers provided more than 400 meals to individuals facing homelessness and food insecurity, helping connect them with essential services, including shelter assistance, hygiene resources, and clothing.

Additionally, during the holidays, GL Homes hosted a Thanksgiving celebration for 180 children at the Boys & Girls Club of Delray Beach, offering a full meal prepared by Feeding South Florida and the support of more than 10 employee volunteers. The event included a visit from Tom the Turkey and reinforced the company's focus on purpose-driven development and community impact.

Looking Ahead: 2026 and Beyond

Misha Ezratti's vision for GL Homes in 2026 centers on continuing sustainability and purpose-driven development while maintaining a strong focus on community impact and Florida real estate growth. GL Homes will continue to integrate wellness, design, and environmental stewardship into its developments, creating spaces where residents can thrive and communities can flourish.
