Site Selection
I search for overlooked lots in neighborhoods I know closely. The right address, block, and development potential have to align before a project begins.

Ben Yeshurun
Founder & Managing Partner · BYI Group
I started BYI Group with a straightforward belief: Chicago's North Side deserved better new construction—homes that didn't just meet the market, but helped define it.
For more than a decade, I have taken a hands-on role in every project, from finding the land and navigating permits to selecting trades and walking the final details.

Experience
One point of accountability, from lot to keys.
Keeping the work close creates better decisions, tighter budgets, and homes that feel considered all the way through.
02
Design & Permitting
I coordinate design and city approvals in parallel, resolving constraints early so the architecture, schedule, and budget support one another.
03
Construction Management
I manage every trade directly rather than adding layers between the vision and the work. That keeps communication clear and each detail accountable.
04
Delivery
I stay involved through final finishes and turnover. The goal is not simply to complete a house, but to deliver a home that holds up to daily life and time.
Track Record
