OUR COMPANY

A Leading Developer In The Western States

As the Lewis Group of Companies begins its 67th year, many long-tenured employees under the direction of a second and third generation management team continue the tradition of quality, integrity and stability that was of paramount importance to Ralph and Goldy Lewis when they founded their home building firm in Claremont in 1955.

Strict adherence to this philosophy has resulted in the development of more than 58,000 homes, approximately 13,000 apartments and 24 million square feet of retail, office, and industrial space.

Since 1955, the Lewis organization has developed new communities in California, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah, totaling in excess of 35,000 acres and housing more than 59,000 families.

In 1999, the Lewis family sold a portion of its business, Lewis Homes, to Kaufman and Broad (KB Home), creating the largest homebuilder in the United States at that time.

Greater Versatility As The Lewis Group Of Companies

The Lewis Group of Companies continues today as one of the nation’s largest privately held real estate development companies. The Lewis Group focuses on developing mixed-use planned communities and residential subdivisions in California and Nevada, as well as building and owning rental communities, shopping centers, and office and industrial parks.
