Where wellness thrives
We know all about creating exceptional homes. In that spirit, we endeavor to make Crescent Communities a second home for all who work here — a place where you’ll feel the freedom to be who you truly are and safe to pursue your dreams. A truly authentic culture that inspires. There is a passion to allow and encourage the unique talents of every individual to be expressed and developed. People are our most important assets.
- DO WHAT'S RIGHT
- COLLABORATE WITH PURPOSE
- INSPIRE CREATIVITY
- DELIVER EXCELLENCE
Doing what’s right isn’t always easy, but it’s what defines us—right by our people, partners, planet, and communities. We champion diverse perspectives, honesty, and transparency, fostering strong relationships that fuel our success. At the heart of it all, being good humans is what truly matters. Beyond words, our actions speak for us. The proof lives in our people, partnerships, and the communities we uplift.
We live by the proverb, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” We believe that collective intelligence, diverse ideas, and meaningful collisions spark true innovation. By fostering collaboration—both within our team and beyond—we create a culture where ideas are challenged with respect, perspectives are broadened, and creativity thrives. Grounded in a shared vision, we move with strategic intent and purpose. We approach challenges with a mindset that is not only creative but also efficient and impactful. Through shared ownership and accountability, we push each other to go further and achieve more, together.
Creativity lives in all of us, ready to bring new ideas to life. Every moment holds the potential for something extraordinary. A fresh perspective can transform an idea into something groundbreaking. We embrace creativity every day, not only in bold ideas, but in the attention to detail that drives meaningful change. We seek new possibilities, discover unexpected connections, and elevate the everyday. At our core, we are innovators, dreamers, and creators—shaping a future full of endless potential.
We believe in the relentless pursuit of excellence. It is not about perfection, but about intention. We create, craft, and execute with intention and the results are exceptional communities and projects that far exceed the standard in each market. The caliber of our colleagues and partners allows us to achieve impressive results and highly sought after communities. In all that we do to build community and better people’s lives – and we do so with a dedication to excellence.
Measuring Impact
Stewardship
Crescent Communities’ annual Stewardship Report outlines the year-round efforts of our team members to balance decision-making with smart business practices for the environment, the community, and those who will utilize it.
As a real estate development company, we have a tremendous opportunity to be innovative, reduce our environmental impact, and build community, not only in the sense of “sticks and bricks,” but also in the form of human connections. We are building communities with an eye to the future – communities that will remain relevant over time as high-performing, energy-efficient spaces that support the health of the environment and simultaneously encourage physical and mental health and wellbeing.

Belonging
The culture of Crescent Communities has long encouraged our colleagues and leaders to embody our value statement: “Do What’s Right.” While we are proud of what we have already accomplished as a company, we understand that this is an ongoing journey with no finish line. We can do much more to lead others in this commitment, which includes continuing to foster a team comprised of diverse backgrounds, experiences, styles, genders, and races, and running an organization that values diverse perspectives, supports team member engagement, and fuels strong business results.

Public Art
What began as a desire to improve areas of buildings perceived as blank canvases has expanded and proven to be a defining characteristic of Crescent Communities, reinforcing our motto, “Build Community. Better People’s Lives.” We work closely with a national art curator to commission works that reflect the distinct personality of the neighborhood in which the project is located.
From Phoenix to Charlotte to Dallas, we work with local artists to transform otherwise blank walls, parking decks, or garages into vibrant, colorful creations that draw people in and make them want to be a part of our communities.

“Talent is Overrated” by Geoff Colvin was a game changing and timely book that I read in college.

Consistency and several thousand hours of “deliberate practice” are the universal formula for anyone to achieve great things.
