Our Company

River Rock is a vertically integrated real estate development and management company specializing in residential single and multi-family communities. We have completed over $5.5B in value-add real estate investments throughout the Southeast, Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions in partnership with our investors.

These developments are for those who want the benefits of a single-family home, but without the upkeep. Each of these An Easy Living Community™ projects provides its residence with an easy, maintenance-free lifestyle.

Our mission is to exceed client, resident and investor expectations in everything we do. We believe – across all of our brands – that investing in our people is what creates the best results.

Our vision is to be recognized as the leading developer of residential real estate in the U.S, where we are building communities with a vision for tomorrow. Residential Reimagined.
