About Us
Since 2005 Brownstone Affordable Housing, Ltd. ("Brownstone") has been actively developing and constructing affordable multifamily properties financed in part through the Housing Tax Credit program. Brownstone is a family-owned, multi-faceted group of companies involving Brownstone Architects & Planners, Inc., Brownstone Affordable Housing, Ltd. and Brownstone Construction, Ltd., which design, develop and construct single-family and multi-family residential properties as well as selected commercial assets. Since 2005 the portfolio has steadily grown, expanded to multiple states, and now includes a number of market-rate properties as well as affordable properties developed and constructed for Housing Authority clients. Over time, this has led Brownstone to the determination that it is appropriate to incorporate self-management of its multifamily portfolio as a natural progression of its all-inclusive operations.
In June 2018, Brownstone Residential, LLC was formed to undertake those operations. At the heart of our mission is a clear and passionate vision: to create outstanding living spaces that are not only affordable but feel like home for everyone. Our approach is built on a foundation of self-management and asset protection, ensuring long-term sustainability and quality in every community we develop.
We are more than a team; we're a family. Founded by the late William "Bill" Brown, his enduring legacy is carried forward by his family - Doak, Jennifer, Jed, and Wil Brown. Alongside them stands our dynamic President and managing partner, Robert Dryman, and the creative forces of Leslie Holleman and Evon Harris from Evolie Housing Partners, LLC.
Together, we are committed to being a powerhouse in production development and property management. The Brownstone group of companies isn't just planning for the immediate future; we're looking at creating lasting, positive impacts for many years to come. Our goal is to blend the strength of our familial unity with our professional expertise to continue providing quality, affordable housing that makes a difference in people's lives.
The Company is owned and managed by an experienced team of management and development professionals with a wide array of expertise in property operations, financial operations, compliance, asset management and state agency/lender/investor relations. In addition, the company structure qualifies it for certification as a Historically Underutilized Business in the state of Texas. Preparation of a certification application to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts is currently in process.
