The Brixton Group Ltd., formed by its principal and CEO Geoffrey Ruttenberg, a third generation developer, was initially created to specialize in condominium conversions, while catering to the needs of the first time home buyer. Its primary goal was to offer renovated units at entry-level prices so the first time homebuyer could easily make the transition from renting to owning, while receiving value in the quality and size of the purchase and equity in the overall worth of the acquisition.

The residential real estate market has rapidly undergone major growth in all price ranges, so too has the focus of The Brixton Group, Ltd, while still maintaining its original focus, The Brixton Group, Ltd. is now also involved in the upper end marketplace in both condominium conversions, and single family housing options. While diversifying its efforts, The Brixton Group, Ltd. utilizes its past experience to improve the city in multiple ways while offering a broader option of housing throughout the entire real estate market.

For The Brixton Group, Ltd., community amenities and charm have always been primary consideration when selecting potential sites. Not only is it important to give the purchaser a quality product in an exciting area, but equally important is continuing the growth of emerging neighborhoods and strengthening the overall opportunities Chicago has to offer from a residential and commercial view point to enjoy your home, but also all the benefits your community has to offer.

The Brixton Group, Ltd. is part of the real estate tradition of the Ruttenberg Family and its development history. Its principal is associated with Lakewest Inc. and Belgravia Group, Ltd., which, with its affiliates have been involved in Chicago real estate development for over 50 years. From residential developments to commercial projects, from small multi-unit income renovations to new construction rental options, the Ruttenberg Family has participated in the development of the Chicago real estate scene and has helped provide the opportunity for many to experience the variety of neighborhoods located throughout the Chicago land area.

The Ruttenberg Family has always been a leader in the marketplace. Spearheading development west of Clark street in the 1950's when Lincoln Park was only situated along the lake front, the Ruttenberg tradition also helped to reshape the Lakeview Community in the 60's and 70's. In the mid-eighties the Ruttenbergs ignited the Clybourn corridor growth and today, their impact can be felt in the River North and West areas, the Fulton River District, Ravenswood and Edgewater communities.

At The Brixton Group, Ltd. we look forward to many more developments across the spectrum and throughout the city's variety of communities. We hope we can continue to enhance the great city of Chicago while offering purchasers quality products and exciting homes.
