Poiema Development Group (PDG) is a relationship-centric real estate development company distinguished by its intentional, collaborative approach to identifying opportunities, engaging stakeholders, and creating sustainable value. PDG serves as an operating partner, joint venturing with property owners, religious institutions, nonprofit organizations, investors, and developers on affordable and market-rate residential and mixed-use development projects within emerging urban markets.

With decades of community-initiated development experience, PDG recognizes the opportunities and advantages of co-developing projects that build on the inherent strengths of communities. We foster a culture of collaboration, inclusion, and diversity to create equitable, mixed-income urban communities that are both desirable and impactful. It is our belief that redevelopment must be approached equitably, ensuring that every project generates value not only for investors and partners but also for the broader community.

PDG’s development philosophy is rooted in intentional collaboration with like minded partners, primarily Community-Minded Developers LLC, to unlock each project’s fullest potential.
