The Young Group

What The Young Group does

The Young Group is a privately held, vertically integrated real estate development and property management firm headquartered at 800 West Broad Street in Falls Church, Virginia. Operating for over 25 years, the firm concentrates its recent development focus in Fairfax County and the City of Falls Church while maintaining a national reach that includes projects in North Carolina, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and California. The company develops, owns, and manages a diversified portfolio spanning multi-use commercial/office buildings, residential apartments and workforce housing, single-family homes, townhomes, age-restricted cottage communities, shopping centers, self-storage facilities, condominium offices, and mixed-use developments — with over 90,000 square feet of commercial office space delivered to date.

The firm's service offering covers the full property lifecycle: assembly, entitlement, construction, delivery, and ongoing management. Tenant-facing operations are conducted through the AppFolio Property Manager platform, which provides an online portal (web and iOS/Android mobile apps) for rent payment, maintenance request submission, renter's insurance, and tenant communication. Notable accomplishments include delivery of the first LEED certified multi-use commercial/office building in Falls Church (402 West Broad Street, which also includes teacher workforce housing) and the age-restricted Railroad Cottages community built to EarthCraft Gold standards. The firm is a member of the Falls Church Chamber of Commerce, and pricing for both residential and commercial leases is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed.

Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring rental income from owned residential and commercial properties (apartments, office, retail, industrial/warehouse, storage), property development services covering land assembly through construction delivery, and managed services fees for property management. The customer base is intentionally broad, with primary segments in residential tenants (including workforce housing for teachers), commercial tenants requiring 5,000–150,000 sq ft of office, retail, or warehouse space, and industrial/warehouse users. With 11–50 employees and no disclosed institutional or private equity backing, The Young Group operates as a focused regional owner-developer-manager rather than a scaled institutional platform.
