Development
Akridge delivers best-in-class buildings that help define their neighborhoods and provide lasting value for investors. We have extensive development experience in office, multifamily, and mixed-use markets in the DC Metropolitan area and North Carolina.
We believe local projects are best completed by local teams that can keep abreast of changing market patterns, local code and land use changes, and off-market opportunities. Our team has spent decades honing our expertise. Our vertically integrated approach ensures that we’re building the highest quality buildings that are appropriate for each project. Every one of our developments is intentionally designed to operate for the long-term and deliver value to clients and communities.
Property Management
At Akridge, we provide tailored property management services designed to enhance each building’s performance and tenant experience.
As a boutique firm, we offer hands-on expertise and personalized attention from our entire team, including senior leadership. Our deep market knowledge and owner’s perspective allow us to manage assets with precision, delivering exceptional service and long-term value.
Our in-house engineering team self-performs most preventive and corrective maintenance, reducing operating costs, improving service quality, and extending the life of building systems. Operating exclusively in Washington, DC, we understand the market’s unique dynamics and how to best serve each property and its tenants.
This high-touch, high-quality approach delivers measurable results. Kingsley Associates, the industry’s leading benchmarking firm, recently recognized our management portfolio as an 'Elite 5' recipient—ranking us among the top five office portfolios nationally. By prioritizing exceptional service, we drive tenant satisfaction, enhance retention, and optimize lease terms.
