CONSERVATIVE APPROACH | EXTRAORDINARY RESULTS

ABOUT US

Our firm’s primary objective is to deliver superior returns to our investors and principals while maintaining a conservative approach to underwriting. The principals of NDGCP have been involved in well over $1 billion in transactions, and have a long and successful track record in the development, acquisition, financing, property management and asset management of numerous real estate asset types.

EXPERIENCE

Since its establishment in 1986, the NDG portfolio of premium properties has exceeded $1 billion in various markets across the United States. NDG has acquired or developed several million square feet of retail, student housing, multifamily, office, industrial and mixed-use space.

NDG Student Living is the property management affiliate of NDG. The NDG Student Living team consists of industry professionals with significant management experience who utilize the most advanced industry software programs.
