Zeman Homes, Inc. Celebrates 50 Years of Leadership in Residential Real Estate Market

Chicago, IL, November 04, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Zeman Homes today marked its 50th year of operation and its emergence over that period as one of the country's largest privately owned operators of manufactured home communities and RV resorts.

Founded in 1967 by Bud and Dorothy Zeman, the company began as Zeman Realty, a residential real estate company headquartered in Chicago’s Edison Park neighborhood. Shortly thereafter, the company added a second office in Park Ridge and grew to over 35 real estate agents. Nearly a decade later, Mr. Zeman expanded operations to include the listing and sale of mobile home parks, a business that quickly grew as the company phased out its residential brokerage business.

Zeman Homes’ entry into the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities came in 1983 following a sale that fell through for a client’s property. Because Mr. Zeman had given his word that the deal would close, he and a group of investors stepped in to make the purchase. Now, 34 years later, the company owns and operates more than 11,000 individual sites in 40 communities across six states and sells approximately 800 homes per year.

Commenting on the milestone, Zeman Homes’ Chairman Ed Zeman stated, “I am humbled and proud to continue the legacy my mother and father started. It has been a true pleasure watching our company grow from my days doing odd jobs after school at the first property to where we are today. While the company has grown exponentially over the years, our commitment remains the same – to provide high-quality living environments both in the manufactured home space and in the RV resort market.”

Co-founder Dorothy Zeman added, “When Bud and I started this company back in 1967, we were in our twenties with three little kids just trying to pay our bills on a day-to-day basis. We started this real estate company to make some extra money on nights and weekends. Never in my wildest dreams would I have expected it to grow into the company it is now.”
