Community Development

Emmer doesn't just build homes — we build neighborhoods where people genuinely want to live. From established communities like Sorrento and Capri to our newest development, Lugano, each neighborhood is thoughtfully designed with smart layouts, Florida-appropriate construction, and lasting curb appeal.

Property Management

Great management is what turns a building into a community. That's the philosophy behind The Fountains Apartments of Pensacola, Tivoli Apartments of Orlando, and Tivoli Apartments of Gainesville — properties we built and continue to manage with that same commitment. Our spacious apartment floor plans are conveniently located near everything our residents need, making everyday life a little easier.
