What Audubon does

Audubon is a privately held, vertically integrated multifamily real estate firm founded in 2003 and headquartered in Chamblee, Georgia. The company acquires, develops, manages, and invests in multifamily properties concentrated in the Southeastern United States — specifically Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama, and South Carolina. Audubon's portfolio spans more than 3,600 units across 15+ apartment communities, ranging from garden-style apartments to mid-rise buildings such as The Metro at Clearview (270 units) and The Reserve at White Oak (624 units). The firm also operates Brightside Homes, a wholly-owned sub-brand offering build-to-rent single-family townhomes across three Georgia communities (Cartersville, Jefferson, Braselton). As of 2026, the company maintains an operating status with 51-100 employees and a corporate office at 5616 Peachtree Rd., Suite 120, Chamblee, GA.

The operating model is organized into three integrated divisions: Audubon Management (third-party rental property management covering advertising, resident screening, administration, payment collection, leasing inspections, and maintenance), Audubon Development (ground-up multifamily development including garden-style, mid-rise, high-rise, and single-family townhome formats), and Audubon Equity (investment management for limited partners, including asset management, financing, construction management, and financial reporting). The technology stack centers on a self-described integrated investment management platform that combines asset management, property management, financing, construction management, and financial reporting, with Juniper Square deployed as the external investor portal. Distribution to residents runs through dedicated property websites and listing aggregators; distribution to investors runs through the Juniper Square portal plus direct relationships via Audubon Equity, which also offers co-investment opportunities.

Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) rental income from owned and managed apartment communities and the Brightside SFR portfolio, (2) property management fees charged to investment partners for managing their multifamily assets, and (3) investment management fees from limited partners through Audubon Equity, covering asset management, business plan execution, and strategic refinancing or repositioning. The go-to-market is sales-led on the investor side (institutional and high-net-worth LPs seeking Southeast multifamily exposure) and self-serve on the resident side (property websites enabling direct leasing). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; rental rates vary by property, unit type, and market, and investment minimums and partnership terms are managed through the investor portal.
