Fogelman Properties, one of the country’s largest, privately-owned and fully integrated multifamily investment and property management companies, is pleased to announce that its portfolio grew more than 150% in the Nashville market during 2017 surpassing 3,500 apartment homes spread among nine local communities.

The Memphis, Tenn.-based company has owned and managed apartment communities in the region for more than 30 years and currently has more than 65 local employees. In early 2017, Fogelman opened a Nashville regional office to support the accelerated growth and portfolio expansion. The regional office is headed by local industry veteran, Abby Wittenmeier.

“We have continued to enjoy another successful year in Nashville as our local portfolio more than doubled during the current year,” says Mark Fogelman, CEO of Fogelman. “Operating results remain strong in Nashville and our newest lease-up development, East Nashville’s CLEO, which opened in early 2017, is already approaching 80% occupancy. In early 2018, we will also be introducing another new community to the market, LIV Development’s Rivertop, on the west side of the city.”

With the expanded portfolio and new developments well underway, Fogelman Properties is now one of the largest management companies in Nashville, with nine communities and more than 3,500 apartment homes. These communities include:

• Stewarts Ferry (Antioch) – 614 Units
• Creekside (Mt Juliet) – 209 Units
• Cambridge (Hickory Hollow) – 360 Units
• Overlook (Hickory Hollow) – 452 Units
• The Lexington (Bellevue) – 598 Units
• Arbors of Brentwood (Brentwood) – 346 Units

Fogelman Properties, one of the country’s largest, privately-owned and fully integrated multifamily investment and property management companies, was recently recognized as a 2018 finalist for “Best Places to Work in Multifamily” by Multifamily Leadership and Best Companies Group (BCG).

The “Best Places to Work in Multifamily” survey and awards program is part of a long-term initiative to encourage growth and excellence throughout the industry. The program is specifically dedicated to recognizing the industry's best employers, providing organizations with valuable employee feedback and identifying companies that have excelled in creating quality workplaces.

“We are honored to be recognized as one of the nation’s leading multifamily property management and investment firms,” says Melissa Smith, Fogelman’s Chief Administrative Officer. “We pride ourselves on cultivating a truly authentic company culture that remains focused on family and allows our associates to go above and beyond to show our customers the Fogelman Difference. The team is thrilled to see Fogelman associates being nationally recognized for both the culture and exceptional performance they work hard to create every day.”

Fogelman received the #3 ranking nationally in the 2016 and 2017 as “Best Places to Work Multifamily.” This year, the top 25 finalists will be ranked through a rigorous assessment process by Best Companies Group where employee policies and procedures will be evaluated along with the responses from the company's employees. 

Finalists will learn their final 2018 ranking at the upcoming The Multifamily Leadership Summit, held Nov. 15-17, 2017 in Scottsdale, Arizona. The summit will not only recognize top leaders in multifamily but serve as a platform to re-envision the future of the leasing experience and create a dialogue around managing the apartment of the future.
