Don Belman

President

Builder, Broker, Realtor, and Land Developer. Founded Don Belman Homes, Inc. based on the highest level of construction quality and Satisfaction in 1971. Don is past President of the Metropolitan Builders Association and 1996 Builder of the Year. The funniest thing Don has ever seen in this business is when a skunk moved into the basement of a new construction home. A contractor found it, got scared and laid a plank down and crawled out of the window so he would not get sprayed. The skunk then later used the same method to escape. Don says if he could do one thing in life and not fail he would build the Empire State Building. The worst job he ever had was installing sewer lines when he was in College. Don enjoys fishing in Canada, watching the History and Weather channel, and gambling.

David develops Marking tools, oversees website, develops new home plans, and quotes new homes. He founded Belman Builders in 2000. David’s worst job was picking up construction debris when he was 8 years old. Don would routinely drop him off at a job site and leave him for 3 or 4 hours at a time. One time, shortly after he left, David stepped on a nail and was stranded in the middle of nowhere picking up garbage with a injured foot. When David is not working (which is not very often) his wife Susan claims he is hyperactive and enjoys working out, playing basketball, Tae Kwon Do, swimming, playing games with his daughter, or watching movies. David claims his wife can’t say no to animals, and since David can’t say no to Susan, they used to have four animals: a huge Rottweiler named Kasey, and 3 cats: Kailey, Zach, and Riley. Zach and Kasey recently passed away.

Chase

Office Greeter

Chase has become the new office greater since the passing of Cody. Chase is a white golden retriever who is a tad excitable. He is getting very good at his job and we have since removed the “Greeter in Training” tag. Chase also acquired the “office security” title from Kasey. Chase loves to greet all our visitors at the office and he knows exactly where all the treats are hidden. Some people just stop by the office to come pet the dog, and that is certainly fine by us.
