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.
