Rialto Homes
According to “Mr. Webster,” the
word rialto refers to a marketplace, or
theater district. Therefore San
Antonio’s striking Rialto Homes’
showpieces truly fit their definition.
They are distinctive, with excellent
construction, high quality craftsmanship
and fastidious attentiveness to
design.
According to company
President, Louis Espinar, “Our goal is
to offer the consumer timeless home
designs while maintaining the highest
standards of excellence. We are dedicated
to building homes you’d be
proud to live in, without compromising
architectural integrity or workmanship.”
Value and style are Rialto
Homes’ hallmark, and the company
partners with the finest name brand
suppliers to further enhance the value
offered to the consumer. Whirlpool
and Kitchen Aid appliances are standard
fare in Rialto Homes, as are
Carrier heating and air conditioning
units and granite counters. Other
standard materials include Owens
Corning shingles and insulation and
Acme brick.
Espinar says, “Most importantly,
we offer the homebuyer choices.
Such as choices in elevations, floor
plans, features and amenities.
Flexibility is a concept that we
embrace and understand. The choices
our buyers make reflect their individuality
and their
lifestyle, and we are
happy to play a role in
enabling them to
enhance their surroundings.”

Sheridan Homes San
Antonio, Rialto
underwent a name
change in December 2007, as not to
be confused with Sheridan Homes
Dallas. Its focus is on meeting buyer
needs, with emphasis on location and
lifestyle. “While we are in the business
of meeting the home buying
needs of a wide constituency, we are
in the San Antonio market, primarily
in the ‘luxury move-up segment,’”

Espinar explains, adding that in mid-
2008 we will introduce a value-style
luxury segment to the local consumer.
Rialto Homes currently has
communities in Garden Ridge,
Cibolo, and San Antonio.
The Forest is located off
Nacogdoches Rd., in Garden Ridge.
While this community is off the beaten
path, it is easily accessible to IH-
35 and Loop 1604 and close to shopping
malls, hospitals and schools.
Here, discerning buyers have a selection
of eleven 3-5 bedroom floor
plans, with basic prices ranging from
$363,990 for a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath,
2658 sq. ft, one-story unit, to the top
of the line “Hacienda,” a two-story
model with five bedrooms and 4.5
baths, priced at $559,990. In each
instance,
Most importantly, we offer
the home buyer choices.
Choices in elevations, floor
plans, features and amenities.

were conceived
with furniture
placement
in mind,
and elegant
arches, distinctive art niches,
roomy walk-in closets, and gourmet
kitchens are but a few of the soughtafter
enhancements the builder provides.
Units in Cibolo’s Buffalo
Crossing start in the $160s, with the
“Perry II” offering four-bedrooms,
2.5 baths, breakfast and formal living
and dining areas, a spacious family
room plus a game room upstairs. In
all, Buffalo Crossing offers a total of
7 floor plans within a quiet country
neighborhood with greenbelts and
attractive landscaping.
Homes at Mesa Creek, near
Lackland AFB, start in the low 100s,
and include 3- and 4-bedroom units
with 2 or 2.5 baths.
Rialto Homes’ Design Gallery
features a large selection of quality
flooring, elegant countertops, some
made of natural stone and designer
lighting fixtures. As the company is
committed to ensuring customer satisfaction
through accountability, its
specially trained staff is on hand to
discuss customer preferences and
make suggestions, based on individual
needs and budgetary constraints,
should any exist.
In retrospect, Rialto Homes
could be compared to a hit theatrical
production with a world-class cast in
both leading and supporting roles.
With each of the players performing
to perfection, every performance
becomes an improvement on the previous
one. And when the curtain goes
down after the last act and the cast
takes its bow, it is to accolades of
bravo, and rave reviews. Whether for
the first-time homebuyer or one who
wants “a bit more”…Rialto Homes
are truly showpieces: each one meant
to be enjoyed for generations to
come.
