About Us
Life is complicated enough. At Akash Homes, we believe building a home shouldn’t be. We’ve grown fast by doing things differently - removing surprises, prioritizing quality, and delivering homes that feel as good as they look. We’re scaling quickly across Western Canada, and we need people who are ready to dig in and help shape what comes next.
If you haven’t heard of us: Akash Homes is a homebuilder headquartered in Edmonton, with active communities in Edmonton, Calgary, and Winnipeg. We have an ambitious growth trajectory—and we’ve doubled year over year. We’re now one of the top 5 builders by permits in Edmonton and top 20 in Calgary. We’ve grown from a small (but mighty) team of 17 in 2023 to over 75 in 2025 (and counting). This kind of growth isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about the culture we’re building, the people we're investing in, and the momentum we’re proud to sustain.
