Cortland Named One of the Country’s Largest Apartment Owners and Managers

NMHC 50

The National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) released their 2019 NMHC 50, an annual ranking of the nation’s largest apartment owners and managers. Cortland is now the 18th largest apartment owner and the 26th largest apartment manager in the nation, rising up the ranks from the 22nd and 34th largest in each respective category last year. 2019 marks Cortland’s 5th consecutive year on the Top Owners list and its 4th year on the Top Managers list.

In 2018, Cortland added 31 communities (9,935 apartment homes) under its property management. With the addition of these communities, Cortland has broken into the Top 20 in the NMHC 50 for the first time and hopes to climb higher in the rankings in 2020. Cortland is dedicated to resident-centric hospitality and is determined to continually improve the living experiences they provide their residents.

This marks the 30th year of the NMHC Top 50 lists. NMHC partners with Kingsley Associates, a leading real estate research and consulting firm for the NMHC 50’s research and analysis. All apartment owners, managers, developers, builders and syndicators are invited to answer a survey questionnaire that asks about their prior year activities. Apartment owners, managers and syndicators are ranked based on their portfolio holdings (either owned or managed) as of January 1, 2019, while developers and builders are ranked based on the number of units started in 2018.
