    About Company

    The NRP Group was founded in 1995 with a clear goal: to develop, construct and own apartment communities that support residents’ lifestyles and give them homes they can be proud of.

    Since then, our growth has been exponential. We’ve developed and constructed well over 28,000 residential units in 13 states; we now manage more than 100 properties – encompassing 16,000 luxury, family and senior rental units – in 8 states.

    We started out creating communities that are set apart from the competition. Using our industry foresight, pioneering spirit and market knowledge, plus our unparalleled relationships with external business partners, we met the demand for superior affordable and market-rate housing. And we’ll continue to do just that. Have a look at how far we’ve come since we were founded.
