Some people groan about turning 40 years old, worried about that extra wrinkle or that a few of their goals might not be manifesting according to their timeline. Others celebrate with abandon, seeing a little wrinkle as evidence of extra wisdom or a good old-fashioned laugh line. At Weidner, were embracing our birthday/anniversary by celebrating our most important assets: our loyal residents and the incredible Weidner team that made 40 years feel like an adventurous thrill ride, rather than a mere day job. Who We Are Weidner is a multifaceted real estate investment company, specializing in multifamily apartment management. We are creative developers of new apartment homes, including mixed use communities that showcase the urban trend of retail and office space, combined with convenient apartment living. It all began in 1977 with one property, The Lafayette in Seattle, WA. Today, Weidner Apartment Homes manages and owns 244 properties, and more than 46,454 units across 9 states and Canada. Now thats something to celebrate! Our Team Weidner is solely owned by Dean Weidner, President and CEO. Along with Chief Operating Officer, Jack OConnor, Weidner is the proud employer of more than 1,400 associates who embody the Weidner mission to operate as a dynamic team of professionals dedicated to providing quality apartment home living.

This program is dedicated to giving back to the communities we serve.
