EYA Neighborhood News

People who are exploring a new place to live often focus on tangible, measurable considerations: The size of their desired home and the cost of their rent or mortgage; the school choices for their children; or the availability of particular amenities like Metro access. That makes sense, of course, since these factors are often non-negotiable items that affect our bottom line. A far less tangible factor that’s just as important for wellbeing and happiness is the community we become part of: The people we see every day or even a few times a month, the shops and restaurants we regularly frequent, and the essential workers who keep our neighborhoods safe and running smoothly.

2024 has been a year of growth, community and innovation at EYA. Our efforts have resulted in positive impacts not just within the company, but more importantly, in the lives of our homeowners and the neighborhoods where we build. From launching our first two all-electric communities to welcoming over 190 homeowners to their new homes and giving back to local communities, our accomplishments this year further EYA's mission to create distinctly special neighborhoods that positively impact individual lives and communities in a socially responsible way. Below are some highlights from the year.

Last month, EYA celebrated the opening of it's 50th new neighborhood in the greater DC area. Four of these new communities opened within the last year, and two more are coming soon in 2024. EYA's Senior Director of Marketing, Ananth Rao, recently shared his reflections on what it means to be a part of a community opening—how EYA team members come together with a sense of commitment and camaraderie, and how special it is to see future neighbors forging friendships as they camp out overnight to be among the first to buy a home in the new community.
