Everything we’ve built has had the same foundation: TRUST Since our founding more than 50 years ago, Van Metre Companies have earned the trust and respect of our fellow citizens throughout metropolitan Washington, DC. Continuously family-owned, Van Metre Companies have always been real estate development and construction leaders in the National Capital area. We are a highly acclaimed organization of dedicated, energetic, involved professionals who continually define the benchmark for luxury living and refined commercial development, from Class A office developments to elegant residential communities and custom homes, to signature condominium and apartment communities. Our clients and customers recognize our focus on excellence and our philanthropic commitments. And our peers in the industry applaud — and seek to emulate — our products and practices.

It’s not by chance that The Van Metre Companies has grown into the area’s strongest privately-held multi-faceted residential developer. Guided by personal commitments to quality, honesty and integrity, the company continues to grow and build on its success. It takes a motivated team of professionals to lead the homebuilding industry in Northern Virginia. Four key principals, with a combined Van Metre tenure of some one hundred years, lead the Company.
