About Us

Delivering experience and innovation.

Vision

Realizing an entrepreneurial vision.

Hoffman & Associates uses vision and forward thinking to create authentic, innovative and inclusive communities that connect us.

Since 1993, we’ve developed catalytic mixed-use, residential, office, entertainment and retail spaces that have enhanced neighborhoods from Downtown and Southwest DC to Virginia and Raleigh, NC. With a proven approach and commitment to connecting people, we are shaping cityscapes across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast.

Delivering value to all.

We’ve worked hard to earn our reputation as a leading real estate developer, with a passion for enhancing neighborhoods and designing high-quality, mixed-use spaces.

This requires experience. The boldness to take necessary risks. An approach that harnesses the best in all disciplines. An openness to learn. And a collective determination to deliver value to all, serving both existing and new communities.

We continue to learn, grow and improve. And we’re excited to bring our innovative and inclusive approach to development to new regions, shaping cityscapes and connecting people through places that inspire.
