Roers Companies has earned its highest placement yet on the Inc. 5000, ranking No. 218 among the fastest-growing private companies in America in 2026. Within the list, Roers Cos. ranked No. 2 among Minnesota companies and No. 4 among real estate companies nationwide, placing the company among leading businesses both locally and across the real estate industry.

The recognition comes at a time of continued momentum for Roers Cos. As the company’s geographic footprint has expanded, it has also strengthened the expertise and capabilities of its teams across development, construction, property management, and investment.

Since its founding in 2012, Roers Cos. has evolved from its roots in the Upper Midwest into a multifamily company with projects and communities across the country. Its vertically integrated teams bring expertise across the full real estate lifecycle, providing a strong foundation for entering new markets and pursuing opportunities at greater scale.

As of August 2026, Roers Cos. has surpassed $4.5 billion in development, with more than 16,600 units built or under construction and more than $819 million in private equity raised since 2012. The company’s footprint now spans more than a dozen states where communities have been developed or construction is underway. Alongside that broader national reach, Roers Cos. has increased its focus on affordable housing and continued to build its general contracting business.

“Our progress is a reflection of a model we’ve worked hard to build over the last 14 years,” said Kent Roers, co-CEO and founder of Roers Cos. “We know what we do well, and we’ve built teams with the expertise to carry that into more markets and more communities. The opportunity ahead is to continue applying that experience across our portfolio while staying focused on quality execution and long-term value.”

The No. 218 ranking reflects how far Roers Cos. has come while reinforcing the strategy behind what comes next. The firm will continue to pursue opportunities all while staying grounded in the purpose that has guided Roers Cos. from the beginning: Creating homes first. Value always.
