“We worked with Nate early in his career when he was director of land and
later partner at Concord Homes, which was a successful homebuilding company my
father, Ron Benach, and his partner, Wayne Moretti, ran until the firm
was sold in 2002,” said Jeff Benach, principal of Lexington Homes.
“Today, we’re
thrilled to have him return to our team and bring with him valuable insight and
knowledge from nearly three decades of experience working with various builders
in the Chicagoland area.”
Most recently, Wynsma was vice president for Glenview, Ill.-based Ryan
Building Group, where he oversaw land acquisition and development operations in
multiple divisions from 2013 to 2018.

“Nate’s experience will be important to our continued
expansion and success in the coming years,” he said. “He understands the unique
challenges of our strategy of building in both urban and suburban infill
locations and has a deep understanding of the townhome and single-family home
communities we build.”
Wynsma adds, “It’s wonderful to be back with this exceptional team. I was
pretty young when I first worked with these executives and really cut my teeth
on land acquisition and growing a homebuilding company, as Concord exploded
from 300 homes closed in 1996 to 1,330 homes closed in 2002 when the company
was sold.
"Today, I’m thoroughly impressed with the Lexington
Homes team at all levels and excited to work for one of the area’s top builders
– especially one that is so well-positioned for growth.”
Wynsma is a graduate of Hope College in Holland, Mich., with a bachelor of
arts in business administration and economics, and is an Illinois Licensed Real
Estate Managing Broker.
Lexington Homes plans to open sales for nearly 200 additional new homes in
2019. Currently, the firm has projects underway in Arlington Heights, Des
Plaines, Morton Grove, Oak Park and Chicago’s Avondale neighborhood.
