BUILDING COMMUNITY THE ACKERMANN WAY
As a third-generation owner, Dobbs Ackermann has led the Ackermann Group as an influential property management and development leader since 1997. Building on the regional success of his father,
Tom Ackermann, and his grandfather, Rudolph Ackermann, Dobbs set out to focus the business around one primary goal: to serve the community in a positive way.
Today, residential community ownership and management comprise the majority of the company’s business with a focus on communities in dependable markets. Our corporate headquarters is located
in Cincinnati, Ohio and we have invested in assets in Cincinnati, Charlotte, Columbus, Dayton, Indianapolis and Northern Kentucky.
At the Ackermann Group, the business of building communities comes down to creating neighborhoods where families flourish and businesses thrive. We care deeply about the communities we create
and the neighborhoods where we live and work.
