Belman Homes Inc

whose journey is interwoven with the evolution of Belman Homes itself. Belman’s father, Don Belman, a visionary in his own right, laid the foundation for Belman Homes as a real estate and land development company. In the 70s, he was instrumental in assisting other builders to purchase lots and sell their homes, which was disrupted when the builder he primarily collaborated with unexpectedly left the industry. With this challenge, Belman’s father took a bold step, leveraging his great understanding of the industry and his network of skilled tradespeople to transition into the building business. BUILDING THE FUTURE For Belman, the building business was a profession and a way of life. Growing up, conversations at the dinner table often revolved around the nuances of construction and real estate. Belman laughs, “I grew up in the whole building business; it was in the basement of our home.” These early experiences, coupled with hands-on work on building sites during his youth, ingrained in him a deep appreciation for the craft. After high school, Belman moved into the real estate side of the business, obtaining his license, and beginning to sell homes while pursuing a college education. The late 1990s marked a significant transition for Belman Homes, with Belman playing a central role in steering the company toward newhorizons.Under his leadership, Belman Homes expanded its scope to include land development, custom homes, and condominiums, particularly in Southeast Wisconsin. This expansion was not just in scale but also in vision and spirit. The loss of Belman’s father in December 2020 was heartbreaking for both the family and the company. Belman’s stewardship ensured that Belman Homes continued to thrive, honoring his father’s legacy while forging its path. Belman’s multifaceted role as a realtor, broker, and business administrator, along with his numerous accolades, including being named the 2017Waukesha Freeman citizen of the year, is a testament to his dedication and skill. Now, under Belman’s leadership, Belman Homes is strongly committed to creating an exceptional building experience for each customer. This customer-centric approach has been fundamental to the company’s growth and reputation. Belman and Belman Homes distinguish themselves not only through their business acumen but also through their dedication to charitable activities. Their collaboration with the Operation Finally Home organization highlights their strong commitment to community welfare and social accountability. Their efforts to introduce this program in Wisconsin, coupled with their direct involvement in building homes for veterans, has infused a significant social aspect into the legacy of Belman Homes. 3 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 11, ISSUE 01 BELMAN HOMES , INC .
