Where (and why) it all began
Back in 2009, three long-time friends and colleagues realized they shared a desire to exceed expectations in ways rare for their industry. And just like that, Hawthorne Residential Partners was born ushering in a new way to work by founders Samantha Davenport, Ed Harrington, and Shoff Allison with Phil Payonk joining shortly thereafter as Principal. They were intent on making a difference in the lives of their employees, residents, and partners – the “Live It” difference. To them, and to the Hawthorne family, “Live It” represents the passion and commitment to go above and beyond in everything we do.
Hawthorne is proud to be recognized by the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) as a 2024 Top 50 Manager, 2023 Top 25 Developer, and one of the largest management companies in the nation. Further, Hawthorne is ranked as #1 in online reputation performance out of all NMHC Top 50 Managers, currently holding the highest ORA score of any division one management firm in the United States.
