Hilltop Residential Ranks No. 8 on the 2026 Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate™ List

Hilltop earns a top-10 national ranking among 100 small and medium-sized companies recognized for exceptional workplace culture

HOUSTON, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hilltop Residential, a vertically integrated multifamily real estate investment and management firm, has been named No. 8 on the 2026 Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate™ List in the Small and Medium category, placing Hilltop among the top 10 of 100 companies recognized nationwide.

The recognition is based on confidential feedback from employees who participated in the Great Place To Work® Trust Index™ Survey. Great Place To Work evaluated more than 28,000 survey responses from employees at companies eligible for the 2026 Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate list. To be eligible, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified™, have at least 10 U.S. employees and operate within the real estate industry.

"Being recognized as one of the top workplaces in our industry is an incredible honor, but what makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it is based on feedback from our own employees," said Greg Finch, Founding Partner of Hilltop Residential. "From the beginning, we have believed that building a great company starts with creating a place where talented people feel valued, supported and empowered to succeed. This recognition belongs to our employees, whose commitment to one another, our residents and our communities has shaped the culture we are so proud of today."

The Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate list recognizes companies that have created consistently positive employee experiences across their organizations. Rankings are based on employee feedback measuring key aspects of workplace culture, including trust in management, connection with colleagues, pride in their work, fairness and opportunities to contribute and grow.

The national ranking builds on Hilltop's Great Place To Work Certification™, which is also based directly on employee feedback. Together, the recognitions reflect Hilltop's continued focus on creating an environment where employees can grow, collaborate, and make a meaningful impact.

"At Hilltop, culture isn't something we view as separate from the success of our business," said David Wylie, Founding Partner of Hilltop Residential. "Our people are the foundation of everything we do. As Hilltop continues to grow, maintaining the culture and values that brought us here will remain one of our highest priorities."
