Built on a legacy of more than six decades, the DeBartolo name is recognized as an icon in the real estate world. Since our beginnings in 1944, legendary entrepreneur Edward J. DeBartolo Sr., innovated the mall concept and developed some of the most well-known and nationally-recognized shopping landmarks. With the same entrepreneurial spirit, Edward J. DeBartolo Jr. evolved DeBartolo Development into a leader in the real estate industry. Today, DeBartolo Development opportunistically invests in real-estate assets of all sizes and scopes – specializing in multifamily, hospitality, retail and mixed-use projects.

DeBartolo Development combines experience, sound research and market foresight with institutional partnerships and strong lender and broker relationships. This enables us to discover, finance, develop and manage an investment until it grows to yield a maximum return. By continuing to expand our relationships, resources and reach, we create solutions for distressed lenders, property owners and investors across the United States.
