CUSTOMER SPOTLIGHT - Resource Construction in Troy, IL Has a 20 Year Focus on Building Communities

Resource Construction provides a complete design build service for residential and commercial developments.  “Our primary goal at Resource is not simply to build houses, 
but to build communities. We continually seek development projects that provide the added opportunity to create something special”, said Chris Geiler, President of Resource Construction. 

Resource Construction is seeing a great deal of growth in both residential and commercial developments. Projects cover much of the Metro East with a heavy concentration in the Troy, Edwardsville, Collinsville triangle. Mike Ward, AVP Corp. Banking Officer with National Bank, understood Chris’ vision of building communities from his background as a community banker. National Bank provided the financing for the early stages of the Villas at Windsor Way and has enjoyed playing a small part in the growth and expansion of Resource Construction. 

The Villas at Windsor Way, a Resource community on the outskirts of Troy, is wrapping up phase 1 of the 2 phase development. Windsor Way offers homes in the $180,000 to $280,000 range, for homeowners looking for a maintenance free lifestyle. The villas are just 20 minutes from downtown St. Louis and border the Madison County Trail System.

Resource Construction’s California Timbers development was one of the first new developments in the city of Collinsville after the recent construction slowdown and recession. California Timbers subdivision has homes in the $215,000 to $300,000 price range. “We have some really nice wooded walk-out lots. A total of 22 homesites, from 12,000-21,000 square feet, will round out the development. Currently 4 homes are completed with 2 more under construction,” Geiler said.

Resource Construction continues to seek development opportunities that will create future residential and commercial communities. This will continue to be the blueprint for success at Resource Construction.
