Nedde Real Estate

What Nedde Real Estate does

Nedde Real Estate is a privately held, founder-owned Vermont commercial real estate firm operating as a vertically integrated brokerage, property management, and development company under Broker/Owner Doug Nedde. The firm is headquartered at 747 Pine Street in Burlington, Vermont, and concentrates its activity in Chittenden County, with active assets and projects spanning Burlington, Winooski, South Burlington, Colchester, Williston, Essex Junction, Middlebury, Montpelier, St. Albans, and Shelburne. It serves commercial tenants and investors across banking, food and beverage, government, education, healthcare, technology, and nonprofit segments, plus residential tenants across multiple owned communities.

The company's portfolio includes 23+ development projects spanning residential, commercial, hospitality, and industrial properties, with completed and pipeline projects ranging from $2M to $43M in total cost. Active developments include the Sugar House Hotel (a 115-room Marriott Tribute Hotel in Winooski positioned as the first net-zero, zero-fossil-fuel hotel in the world, $43M) and Woodline Apartments (83 affordable workforce units in Winooski, $24M, Summer 2026 delivery). Owned/managed residential communities include The Nest (49 units), 77 Residences (50 units), Battell Block (33 units), and Jackson Court (11 units). Commercial holdings include 89 Main Street (90,000 SF Montpelier City Center), 110 West Canal Street (30,880 SF), 1889-1891 Williston Road (48,065 SF), and several industrial/flex assets leased to institutional tenants.

Revenue is generated through three streams: commission-based brokerage on commercial sales and leases (transaction fees), recurring property management fees for residential communities and commercial assets, and episodic development returns on repositioning and ground-up projects. The team of approximately 14 includes brokers, a CFO, leasing and property managers, a project manager, a superintendent, accounting staff, and assistant property managers. The firm has no proprietary technology platform; go-to-market is direct, sales-led brokerage supported by an organic-content website, social media, and email newsletters. Capital for development projects is sourced through JV partnerships with entities such as Cooper Enterprises, Leah Booska Trust, Alain Youkel, Redstone and Youkel LLC, Malone Properties, and Fernando Cresta, alongside conventional Vermont development financing.
