Allied Orion Group is proud to announce its rebranding as AOG Living, a name that embodies our foundational values, cultural ethos, and vision as we near our 40th business anniversary.

            In 1985, AOG Living began as two separate entities, each with its own specialty and leadership. Orion Real Estate Services was renowned for its property management expertise, steered by one of the founders, while Allied Realty Services made a name for itself in the development and construction arenas, led by two other visionaries. In 2001, these two companies merged, creating Allied Orion Group. This union melded their respective strengths and visions, embarking on a collaborative path that has flourished over the years, characterized by a shared commitment to excellence and innovation.

            “As we forge ahead, anticipating the next 40 years and beyond, we sought a name that genuinely resonates with our core values—a name that carries meaning,” articulated AOG Living CEO Ricardo Rivas. “We transcend a traditional company framework; we are a cohesive team, a community galvanized by our 'TIE' values—Teamwork, Integrity, and Excellence. Our passionate pursuit of excellence is reflected in the superior living experiences we provide for our residents, the empowering workplace we maintain for our associates, and the bespoke services we offer our clients. The 'AOG' name reflects the integration of our services—Investments, Management, and Construction—united by our dedication to the TIE culture. This union is artfully represented in our logo by three interconnected squares, linked by a unifying line. ‘Living’ encapsulates the essence of our collective endeavors—fostering quality apartment home living for countless individuals and families nationwide.”

            Effective immediately, AOG Living will be the new standard bearer of the company’s legacy, with updated company email addresses, marketing materials, and website URL to reflect the renewed identity.

AOG Living has broken ground on The Evergreen at Whisper Valley – the first multifamily development within the 2,067-acre, master-planned community of Whisper Valley in East Austin, Texas, developed by Taurus Investment Holdings.

Developed by AOG Living and designed by The Sage Group, the 348-unit, Class A community is targeted to open in the spring of 2025.  The Evergreen at Whisper Valley is located at 16601 East Braker Lane, just off SH-130 and FM 973, in Whisper Valley with convenient access to downtown Austin, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, and close to major area employers such as the Tesla Gigafactory Campus, Samsung, and Amazon. 

“We are so excited to start construction on the first, high-quality rental option for both professionals and families within the thriving Whisper Valley master-planned development that has traditionally only been offered for sale,” said Gabe Lerner, Managing Director for AOG Living. “Our top priority is to maintain the extremely high standards of construction already established in the Whisper Valley development as we expand our development and management footprint in the Austin market.” 

The Evergreen at Whisper Valley, financed by Cadence Bank, will offer one-, two-, and three-bedroom floorplan options with best-in-class interior features, smart living technology, and designer upgrades.  The multifamily community will be built to adhere to the National Green Building Standards (NGBS) Bronze criteria and the Austin Energy Green Building (AEGB) 2-star rating.  

"We’re thrilled to have The Evergreen as our new neighbors,” said Douglas Gilliland, managing director at Taurus Investment Holdings. “Today marks a huge milestone for Whisper Valley as we kick off the first multifamily component in the community. A mix of housing is critical for achieving great places to live. It’s smart growth and serves the varied needs of today’s diverse households.”

Community amenities include a resident clubhouse with solar panels, game room and catering kitchen, a state-of-the-art fitness center, resort-inspired pool with oversized cabanas, electric car charging stations, grilling areas with gazebos, expansive dog park with agility course, washing stations and social areas, resident business center, beer garden, and bicycle workshop. In addition, The Evergreen at Whisper Valley residents will have access to Whisper Valley’s 600-acre public park with 12-foot wide concrete trails, 8-foot wide nature trails, open fields, natural outdoor amphitheaters for concerts, restrooms, picnic areas and more.

Whisper Valley is the largest sustainable master-planned development in the nation to use new geothermal infrastructure and solar photovoltaic panels to create single family homes that are zero energy capable. At build out, Whisper Valley will also include 7,500 single family and multifamily residences, garden office, retail villages offering restaurants, boutique shopping, grocery and neighborhood services as well as three on-site Del Valle ISD schools.  A new state- of- the- art Del Valle high school is currently under construction and will open in August 2026 at 8200 Taylor Lane.
