As one of the largest homebuilders in America, Ryland Homes offers a wide selection of new homes in Chicago. From traditional to contemporary, the company’s range of new home communities and countless floor plan choices offer unparalleled quality and value.
Ryland Homes has been building quality new homes for 45 years, so the company knows just what’s important to homebuyers.
In Chicago, Ryland continues to adapt to the changing marketplace to increase its sales volume. In 2011, its sales rose 30 percent over 2010, and this year, its sales are already outpacing 2011 by 24 percent.
Ryland’s strength in the market is also reflective in its continued growth, with 11 area communities offering single-family homes, townhomes, and village homes. This fall, Ryland is opening communities in Aurora, Shorewood and Crystal Lake, and on October 27th, it opened Andaré at Talamore, an active adult community in Huntley.

Faced with a challenging market, Ryland has made significant changes designed to strengthen our partnerships with the Realtor community. By regularly evaluating our business model, we are able to continue to respond to the needs of Realtors while offering unparalleled products and value to their clients.
