A Platform of Ten Operating Companies
From ground-up development to affordable housing, hospitality, and venture capital, each company in our platform operates independently, sharing capital access, underwriting discipline, and Daniel Kaufman’s development philosophy.
Several of these companies also build under a community or asset-class brand — one of Kaufman & Company's eight brands. Each card below names the brand (if any) that company operates. See the full mapping on Brands.
Each company runs its own projects and capital, but shared back-office functions, finance, banking, asset management, and IT, are provided across the platform by Kaufman Real Estate & Consulting. A financial or banking matter with any company on this page is handled through that office.
