PHILOSOPHY
Innovate. Integrate. Impact. Invest.
Purpose drives profit. Mission delivers returns.
We develop and invest in triple bottom line real estate—delivering market-rate returns while creating social and environmental value. As developers and investment advisors, our people-centered approach integrates mission with cutting-edge technology and building practices that protect the environment and foster vibrant communities.
We believe wealth generation for all stakeholders creates more durable investments and robust returns. Every development and investment has impact. We ensure ours aligns with our values.
With deep experience in real estate development, finance, and investment strategy, we work with partners who know philanthropy and government alone can't solve our biggest challenges—energy shortages, climate change, social inequity. We deploy our capital and guide client investments toward solutions through a developer's lens.
The equation is simple: lift people up + protect the environment + invest in the future = stronger returns.
Smart environmental choices in our developments—energy efficiency, water conservation, innovative technology, community engagement—create measurable market value. It's win-win for all.
By consciously developing and investing in better communities, healthy buildings, and resource efficiency, we reduce risk and enhance returns. Not bad for a day's work.
HaydenTanner innovates, integrates, and invests—developing properties and strategies that transform how we live, work, and use resources. Using a systems approach, we identify future trends and cultural shifts that dynamically alter markets, managing risks in our developments and investments with an eye on both big picture and bottom line.
Through thoughtful questions, intuitive listening, and active partnering, we craft bold development and investment solutions that enhance resiliency, community vibrancy, and livability while meeting economic objectives.
Our work as developers and investment advisors is multi-faceted, incorporating real estate development, economics, human behavior, policy, strategy, and finance across residential, office, mixed-use, and land development projects. We're committed to generating positive change—not just internally, but globally.
Investing with Purpose
Your money can do more than sit in an index fund. It can help shape the places where you live and work. That’s the point of small-scale investing: it’s approachable, it’s tangible, and it’s meaningful.
