Washington, D.C.-based EYA LLC announced that Robin Bettarel has joined the company as Head of Multifamily.

Bettarel’s hiring follows EYA’s efforts over the past few years to expand its successful urban townhome business by developing a robust market-rate and mixed-income multifamily rental pipeline, totaling more than 2,000 units in the DMV.

With over two decades of experience in multifamily and urban infill development, she brings a proven record of leading complex mixed-use projects throughout the greater D.C. region and expertise spanning site acquisition, entitlements, financing, and construction management.

At EYA, Bettarel will lead the development and expansion of the company’s multifamily pipeline. She most recently served as Managing Director of Development at Middleburg Communities, where she led the planning, entitlement, and execution of multifamily development across the Mid-Atlantic.
