DRAKE PROFILE
With over forty years of experience, Drake Development's insight and expertise in real estate runs deep. Drake is currently involved in the development of various mixed-use projects aiming to provide a live, work, and play environment for mid-sized communities experiencing growth.

-Matt Pennington, Drake Founder
Drake Development's mixed use experience encompasses neighborhood centers, entertainment districts, and lifestyle centers. We understand the complexities of this type of development after years of experience and have built a trusted team of partners that we work with to provide end-to-end mixed use development services.
ABOUT OUR TEAM
The Drake Development team has extensive experience in retail and mixed-use real estate. With a combined 40+ years of experience, at some of the most well-respected real estate firms in the country, we saw an opportunity in the market and development is where we've chosen to specialize.
OUR SERVICES
From both land use to infrastructure planning, Drake Development's master land planning services achieve project goals, as well as local goals, objectives and policies for community growth and/or future development.
Using the information gathered during the strategy and planning phase, at Drake Development, we work to acquire the sites that best meet the requirements, taking a low-profile approach, allowing our clients to remain anonymous and ensuring we get the right site at the right price.
​
Additionally, we use our expertise in retail development to understand the unique requirements, restrictions and covenants to best negotiate how the site will operate within the retail context.
Our team works with trusted partners and retailers to design retail developments to meet the needs of consumers and the evolving retail landscape.
​
We handle the design and development so our clients can focus on what they do best.
At Drake Development, we're long-term partners for our clients, with the flexibility to own the facilities we develop. In addition to owning what we develop, we can also acquire existing real estate where we see opportunity for redevelopment or new ground up development.
