As the year comes to a close, we’re proud to reflect on the impact made across our communities, our teams and the families we serve.

This year, LDG Development closed 10 developments, creating more than 2,600 new homes nationwide.

We expanded into new markets, stabilized eight developments, welcomed more than 3,000 families into LDG communities and grew our workforce by 400+ employees.

Transitioned 19 developments from Winterwood to Solidago Residential Services, adding more than 70 team members, over 4,000 units and bringing more than 70% of the portfolio under Solidago operations.

Our construction partner, Xpert Design & Construction, delivered more than 3,000 units across 20 projects.

Beyond development, we deepened our community impact raising $1.2 million through the Rita June Foundation, opening our first permanent supportive housing development, Sheehan Landing, and continuing life-changing work at Arthur Street Hotel.

We also advanced education and workforce pathways through Bezos Academy, apprenticeship programs with Jefferson Community & Technical College, and the establishment of our first Executive Leadership Team.

We’re grateful for our partners, teammates and communities who make this work possible and we’re looking ahead with momentum as we continue building opportunity, stability and brighter futures.

Happy New Year!

We’re proud to share that Solidago Residential Services has officially taken over management of 19 affordable communities across our Kentucky portfolio. This milestone marks an exciting new chapter for both our organization and the residents who call these communities home.

To celebrate the Dec. 1 transition, employees from across our company spent the day onsite welcoming residents, supporting property teams, delivering welcome letters to every doorstep, and providing lunch for staff and residents. Their presence reflects our ongoing commitment to ensuring residents continue to receive the high-quality service, support, and care they deserve.

We look forward to strengthening these communities, supporting our onsite teams, and continuing to invest in the families we serve across Kentucky.

Everyone deserves a quality place to live.

Meet Dakota Jones

Dakota joined LDG Development in 2021 and now serves as Land Acquisition Manager (also proudly known as part of “Team Dirt Dawgs”). He leads the Land Acquisition team in sourcing new development opportunities, guiding the early-stage work that lays the foundation for future communities. With a passion for real estate development, Dakota helps ensure LDG continues to grow.

Dakota’s favorite part of working at LDG is the people. “It is a collaborative and mission-driven environment where we have the same goal,” he says. Dakota enjoys the problem-solving aspect of his role, noting that every parcel of land presents a new challenge and a chance to learn from teammates across several departments.

A favorite memory from his time at LDG is attending the TAAHP conference in Austin during his first week, which was a great opportunity to meet everyone and get immersed quickly in the culture of LDG as well as the LIHTC industry.

Before LDG, Dakota held several roles at Schulte Hospitality Group in Acquisitions, HR and on-site operations and also worked briefly at Stock Yards Bank. Growing up in a family rooted in real estate gave him a natural path into the field. He stays motivated knowing that the work he does today will positively impact thousands of families for years to come.
