They believe strategic investment in real estate and people, paired with sound management, yields productive communities. Vesta, together with its partners and stakeholders, creates highly sought-after, desirable, quality apartment homes for residents.

Vesta built its reputation as a highly valued partner in developing and preserving affordable housing by ensuring they deliver on their promises from the start.

Vesta has experience in the first time use of affordable housing programs.

Vesta is fundamentally designed to manage the acquisition, finance, development, and preservation of a wide range of multi-family opportunities.

REDEVELOPMENT

Redeveloping a community adds value to the asset and allows residents to stay in their homes and avoid displacement. Vesta identifies assets in need, both within their current portfolio or as a new acquisition, and partners with local communities, agencies, and residents to transform the property. Vesta’s expertise and proven track record of success, in conjunction with highly skilled partners, including designers, architects and contractors, has led to the redevelopment of more than 20,000 apartment homes.

HISTORIC REDEVELOPMENT

Vesta believes the key to any historic redevelopment is gathering the right team and working with local community partners to advocate and build support and passion for the project. Meticulous analysis by this team ensures the avenues of preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, and reconstruction are thoughtfully considered for successful execution. Vesta’s expertise maximizes the use of federal, state, and local financial resources in order to ensure the many nuances of historic redevelopments are properly addressed.
