G.I.T. is a dynamic, 100% family-owned, real estate investment & management company established in 1966.  We own and operate over 8,000 beautiful multi-family apartments spanning six states. G.I.T. is proud to be one of the few large real estate firms that own every single unit that we manage. We don’t flip properties, we nurture them for decades.

At G.I.T. we are highly invested not only in our properties but in our people. Firstly, we’re invested in the success and future of every single employee. We express this by caring for each team member through industry-leading pay, generous performance bonuses, health benefits paid for by the Company, opportunities for upward mobility growth, onsite apartment rental discounts, and more. Secondly, we’re invested in the 13,000+ residents that we serve every day, with a focus on providing them with excellent customer service and a great place to call home.

At G.I.T. we hire passionate people who take pride in their performance. When you join GIT, you join an agile company that feels large enough to see yourself there for a long time, yet intimate because it will feel like family, and has great power and influence as a predominant and respected player in the multifamily real estate industry.
