Homeownership.
It's called the American Dream.
Making this dream a reality requires the careful crafting of a piece of land into a new neighborhood -- one that will thrive from the support of proud homeowners, playful children, peaceful animals and caring businesses.
At Wiseman-Hughes, we take great pride in fulfilling the American Dream for hundreds of families each year. Even more satisfying might be our understanding that, with little more than a piece of earth and our own personal skill and dedication, we are able to contribute to the growth of our society in ways that no other industry can match.
Fast Fact
In over 46 years, Wiseman-Hughes has met the needs of more than 10,000 families in Chicago's southwest and western suburbs by offering more than 1,000 different styles of homes.
Making the American Dream available to more people.
For over 46 years, Wiseman-Hughes has been the leader in meeting the changing needs of Chicagoland homebuyers. We are constantly striving to improve. Increased design and construction capabilities have given our architects and buyers the freedom to let their imaginations soar. This creativity has led to a greater demand for new homes in various sizes, shapes, styles and budgets.
In fact, right now we are building virtually every type of quality townhome and single-family home you can imagine -- in just about every price range as well.
Add to that inventive financing plans and secure interest rates and the dream of buying a quality home has suddenly become a much more attractive and accessible goal for just about everyone.
Helping communities
grow and prosper.
A new Wiseman-Hughes community offers people more than just the very best in new homes. It also lays the foundation for an exciting influx of the finest, most technologically advanced, quality-driven businesses in the world.
You see, virtually every business that opens near a new Wiseman-Hughes community, whether it be a one-store bicycle repair shop or a major chain of upscale clothing retailers, must build its facility from scratch. Just like our homes, each facility is designed to include the most innovative concepts, technological advancements and environmentally-friendly products available at that time. Not only do our homeowners get a great new home in a great new community, but they also get easy access to many of the finest stores and services the world has to offer.

Doing our part
to protect the environment.
Often, one of the biggest factors in buying a new home is the quality of the land around it. Is it park-like? Is it tucked into a forest? Is it on a golf course or near a lake? At Wiseman-Hughes, we've understood these concerns for years, which is why we consistently design each and every one of our communities in a way that best preserves or enhances the natural beauty of the land. Sometimes that means leaving natural surroundings as pristine as they were found. Other times it means enhancing acres of open space with dedicated parks, bike paths, nature walks, golf courses and even wetlands. In the end, only those alterations that directly benefit the surrounding communities are made to the land. Wiseman-Hughes is also at the forefront of numerous environmental issues and is committed to the conservative consumption of our country's natural resources. Thanks to technological advances, each and every new home we build this year will be approximately 45% more efficient in conserving gas, electricity and water than those we built just ten years ago. What's more, in 1994, Wiseman-Hughes became the first new home builder to develop and implement a worksite recycling program, thereby turning more than 60% of our construction waste into usable material. Each year we strive for more.
Did You Know?
Since 1952, annual wood growth in our forests has exceeded annual consumption by an average of 33%. This means that more than two trees are planted for every one that is utilized.

And for the future.
At Wiseman-Hughes, we understand that satisfied homeowners are the foundation of strong neighborhoods, stronger communities and an even stronger country. For the future, expect us to deliver even higher quality homes for an even broader range of families and expect them to continue to strengthen the economic and social opportunities for generations of Americans to come. Your faith and support in us is greatly appreciated.
