More important than any site location, building plan or resulting profit margin is our dedication to consistently do what’s right. Every decision is based on this simple, company-wide core value that investors, buyers, property owners and even tenants have come to expect. For over 35 years, our ability to develop relationships on a foundation of integrity and honesty has proven to be the most critical component in every single success story. We find that transparency nurtures collaborative problem solving and keeps everyone on the same page and on the same team. Our senior leadership in development, construction and property management stay heavily involved from start to finish because they’re not only partners in the company, they’re stakeholders with a vested interest in
the success of every project. This kind of loyalty, integrity and teamwork fosters creativity. We pride ourselves on incorporating creative thinking into design and construction so our developments are desirable to tenants, inside and out. The result? We’ve produced some of the highest rental values in the markets in which we develop and have established a reputation for excellence in style and craftsmanship. Our pattern of success in multifamily and commercial development is not based on a coincidental alignment of these factors, but on a purposefully fine-tuned process that integrates communication, integrity, strategy, creativity, excellence, valuable partnerships and strong relationships. This is the Embrey recipe for success.
Every Embrey venture is created with one strict development code.
Integrity.

enthusiasm for the real estate development business is ingrained in the company’s DNA and always will be. So it’s no surprise that his son Trey returned to Embrey after several years leading his own successful real estate investment and development company — an experience that gave him valuable insight into ownership and leadership. From development to construction to property management, the Embrey Partners culture is unique, and decades in the making. It’s “the Embrey influence” — the conservative process of measuring risk to balance all aspects of the business — which will enable this respected development organization to flourish for decades to come.
“ At Embrey we want to do everything right. We’ve learned that the only way to do things right is to truly understand what you are dealing with, whether it’s your competition, your market, development trends or construction processes. Understanding is the key to success.” — Trey Embrey
In 1974, Walter Embrey, Jr. launched Embrey Partners during one of the worst recessions in the industry. So how has the company managed a continual steady rise? By building a core of dedicated development partners that share in the same secret to success — always doing the right thing no matter what and operating with the utmost integrity. That’s still the cornerstone of the Embrey brand. Embrey Partners has been a respected industry player for several decades with a reputation for attracting strong leaders to its collaborative team. In fact, many of Embrey’s top management team offer long-standing tenures with the company and have been part of its ongoing success. Walter Embrey, Jr.’s
Embrey’s successful past is backed by strong leadership.
So is its future.

The Embrey development team could be described with one word. Vision. For over three decades, our partners have displayed the ability to “see” the value in locations others may have dismissed as challenging. Embrey Development’s success begins with this insightful site selection but certainly does not stop there. Research is conducted to analyze the surrounding market and determine the type of development that will create the best possible outcome for all parties involved including investors, partners, tenants, the community and buyers. Our ability to make the most of natural and man-made features is a hallmark of every Embrey project. Understanding the local area and what is physically possible with the land allows us to maximize creativity in the design phase with confidence. In fact, many third party developers draw on our experience for assistance in evaluating their own development and
property management opportunities. On the outside, Embrey creates aesthetically pleasing designs that stand out from the crowd with a subtle air of sophistication and class — often raising surrounding property values. On the inside, Embrey properties are designed for the ultimate living experience, considering important, behind-the-wall features that cannot be seen. This attention to design has allowed Embrey to create units that consistently attract and retain tenants while maximizing rental rates. The development team works closely with the construction and property management teams to improve the efficiency of the plans from the beginning, yet still provides that ideal living experience. Our seasoned Embrey development partners understand the importance of balancing function and creativity, and maintaining quality throughout the entire process. It’s why our investors come back.
We choose to set higher standards.Instead of meeting existing ones.

In true Embrey fashion, the construction team’s involvement begins during the development process, to collaborate on plans and site challenges. Embrey’s construction operation is dedicated to quality. Its meticulous construction processes with established subcontractors eliminate the unexpected during the construction phase. To ensure that projects achieve maximum value, Embrey’s construction team works extensively with subcontractors to develop and qualify their bids on every project. Bids typically reflect the value placed on our long-standing working relationships, our integrity and the desire to build for Embrey. This built-in value is passed on to our investors. But it doesn’t stop there. This attention to detail is what truly sets us apart and allows us to maintain a consistent, cost-efficient procurement of labor and materials
with minimal surprises down the road. Once the bid analysis is complete and we have secured contracts, we manage the building process. We place a strong emphasis on the management of plans, schedules and budgets. As our reputation for quality craftsmanship and comprehensive knowledge of the multifamily and commercial development building processes has grown, we have received inquiries from other developers and owners wanting to engage our construction talent. Embrey Contractors was created as a company dedicated to bringing the same Embrey value to third party development projects. You’ll find the same strong relationships and clear communication with consultants and subcontractors throughout the building phase, which is a hallmark of our construction process.
Every Embrey developmentis built with onestandard feature.
