Hawthorne Residential Partners was founded by Ed Harrington, Shoff Allison, and Samantha Davenport. All have been friends and co-workers for years and share the same principles, desire, and entrepreneurial drive that have shaped the trio of services offered: property management, acquisitions, and development. Phil Payonk joined Hawthorne as Chief Investment Officer and Principal in 2010. Today, Hawthorne's portfolio consists of more than 30,000 units. Hawthorne's rapid growth since the company's inception in early 2009 can be attributed to the strong network of friends and business associates developed over many years.
