Founded in 1995, CMK Companies is a leading Chicago real estate company that has helped redefine the concept of urban living with its award-winning contemporary buildings. The firm is currently responsible for nearly $1 billion in real estate development.

Hailed by Chicago Magazine as "a company that has made a habit of developing forward-looking, contemporary-styled condominium buildings," CMK Companies has won awards from the American Institute of Architects and others. The New York Times noted that the firm's showcase project, the Contemporaine, a distinctive 15-story high rise in Chicago, "looks like no other residential building in the city."

Most recently, CMK Companies has expanded its operations into new markets in the coastal areas of Florida, Michigan and the Caribbean.

CMK Companies consists of two divisions: CMK Development Corporation handles residential and commercial development, while CMK Realty Corporation provides exclusive sales brokerage and marketing services. Three other affiliates of CMK Companies are guiding the firm's expansion into other markets: MK Equity Corporation has established itself in the coastal areas of Florida. Blue Development Group, LLC focuses on lakefront properties on the magnificent shores of Lake Michigan. AXA Investment Company, Ltd. has forged a strong presence in the Caribbean.

In all of its projects, CMK Companies pursues a ceaseless quest for quality, value, and intelligent design in contemporary living.
