We are proud to announce that we’ve once again earned several prestigious industry awards from #Reputation and #Kingsley that truly highlight the dedication, hard work, and passion of our incredible teams. 176 of our communities have made the list for Reputation’s 800 & 900 Awards, 194 communities won a Kingsley Excellence award, and Cortland has been named a Kingsley Elite 5 Company for the second year in a row! These achievements speak volumes about how our community teams and Cortland as a whole have been working tirelessly to provide an above-and-beyond experience across the board. #Multifamily
For the fifth year in a row, Cortland has been awarded the Great Place to Work certification by the Great Place to Work Institute! Providing our associates with opportunities to grow and thrive both professionally and personally, as well as fostering an environment where they feel heard and valued, is an essential part of who we are as an organization. Our continued achievement of being recognized as a #GPTW is a testament to our success in doing just that, and we can’t thank our teams enough for making it possible!
SafeHouse Outreach, a nonprofit organization in Atlanta serving those experiencing homelessness, has honored Cortland with its inaugural Sewell Pillar of Support Award! SafeHouse presented the award to Cortland during its annual gala on October 12th to recognize the lasting impact our associates have made in the community. We began partnering with SafeHouse in 2022 during Cortland Commitment Week, our annual week of community service. The experience developed into a long-lasting relationship of service, teamwork, and dedication to excellence. Since then, countless associates have come together to grow and transform the SafeHouse Outreach facility that many of its employees and guests call home.

In addition to our recent inclusion on Reputation's 800 award and J Turner's 1% award, Cortland scored a hat-trick by earning a third prestigious industry award: The Kingsley Excellence Elite 5!

We are incredibly honored to have earned this achievement!
Cortland is honored by the inclusion of many of our communities in two prestigious awards: the Reputation 800 Awards and the J Turner Research Elite 1% ORA® Power Ranking! Based on feedback received from both current and prospective residents, these awards highlight just how successful our teams truly are at providing excellent service and an above-and-beyond experience. Cortland had 195 communities make Reputation’s 800 Awards list, accounting for 87% of our US portfolio, and two of our communities, Cortland Delray Station and Cortland Sugar Land, tied for the highest Reputation X score in the entire industry at 957. In addition to this, we had 26 communities make the Elite 1% ORA® Power Ranking, with Cortland Alameda Station, Cortland Brackenridge, Cortland Gateway all in the top 100 rated communities in the nation. We are excited to have earned these awards, and could not be more grateful for and proud of our dedicated teams who make it all possible.
Cortland has appointed Jason Kern President of Investment Management, a new role created to support the firm's continued growth in the United States and overseas. Jason Kern will help formulate and implement strategies for the management and growth – both organically and through mergers and acquisitions – of the firm by leveraging its areas of competitive advantage and exploring ways to expand its capabilities. In addition, he oversees the investments, capital markets, corporate finance, investor relations, tax, and accounting teams.
We have acquired Qdime Group, a UK-based, market-leading residential property management service business with more than 30,000 units under management. The investment confirms Cortland in the top ten largest block management providers in the UK. Cortland, which owns and operates nearly 70,000 rental units in the US, has exported its proven resident-centric rental model to their UK build-to-rent, leasehold, and other private rented sector operations – offering UK residents a better living experience and more housing options.
We're excited to announce the launch of our fifth value-add fund! This will allow Cortland to keep expanding our presence with new acquisitions in our existing and untapped markets.
