September 2, 2025 – CCR Magazine recently featured Ziman Development and its president, Michael Ziman, for their innovative approach to custom homebuilding on Long Beach Island. What began as a family passion has grown into a mission-driven company that blends craftsmanship, client vision, and forward-thinking sustainability.
The article traces Ziman’s journey from building spec homes inspired by his father to founding a company that now leads in eco-conscious beachfront construction. His work emphasizes local sourcing, durable low-maintenance materials, Passive House principles, and smart home technology, all designed to reduce environmental impact while delivering comfort and luxury.
Signature projects range from large oceanfront estates to a personal test home in upstate New York that consumes just 10% of the energy of a conventional build. Ziman also launched the One Tree Pledge, planting more than 200,000 trees to offset carbon emissions from construction.
Ziman Development stands out in the Jersey Shore market for setting sustainability benchmarks that others follow, while never losing sight of what matters most: building homes where families can gather, create memories, and enjoy beautiful, resilient living spaces for generations.
