Developing and managing the future of apartment living
April 2014
Dear FJG Family, 

Developing and managing is our passion. Watching a community come together from the beginning and seeing the finished product is a rewarding experience. Our newest development, Shorehaven Apartments, located in Dumfries, VA has been nothing short of phenomenal. All 240 apartment homes have been completed and the fantastic onsite team is renting at record levels. Core Value #3: Teamwork has made this vision come to life. Congratulations to our team for a job well done.  

Sincerely,

 Monument 10K

The Ukrop's Monument 10K race is run on historic Monument Avenue in Richmond, Virginia. Since its debut in 2000, the race has grown to be the fourth largest 10k in the country and the 22nd largest race of any distance. It has been named by USA Today as one of the 10 great road races in the United States. This year, record breaking attendance included over 19,000 registered runners. Whether you are a runner or supporter, everyone enjoys the huge festival before and after the race featuring live bands, giveaways and food. This year, our very own Chris McKee, President of Operations and Arista Lueck, Community Manager at Somerset Pointe traveled to participate in this historic event. They even brought their own cheerleaders, Stephanie Anderson and Marie Peace, to keep them motivated at the finish line. Congratulations to Chris and Arista for living our core values and setting a great example for our team.

 

NAA Capitol Conference 
The 2014 National Apartment Association's Capitol Conference was held on March 12th in Washington D.C. Our very own Arista Lueck, Community Manager at Somerset Pointe and Holly Stubblefield, Community Manager at Shorehaven Apartments attended. During this event, Congress weighed in on issues that affect the apartment industry including housing finance reform, tax reform and many others. This annual event is also the largest lobbying day for the apartment industry and we were proud to have Arista and Holly represent our company. 

 

Team Building at it's Finest! 

 

Regardless of locality, our teams know how to work hard and play hard. They enjoy each other's company and make time outside of work to bond over food, bowling and good conversation. Spending time outside of work ensures their continued team success. Great job to all of our teams for living our core values every day.

ODU Market Review
The Franklin Johnston Group was a Monarch Sponsor at the 19th Annual Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review & Forecast at the Ted Constant Center at Old Dominion University last month. Our portfolio was showcased in a promotional video during the review and we also hosted an exhibitor booth at the reception following the event. This was a great opportunity for area businesses and company executives to learn more about what we do.
