Women in Real Estate 2020: Rachel Edwards of The Davis Company Serves Pioneers In Multifamily Sector

With more than 14 years of experience, Rachel Edwards, Vice President of The Davis Companies, has built a reputation as one of the top multifamily professionals. Since taking on her position, she plays a central role in pursuing value-add and Opportunity Zone transactions and has expanded the company’s multifamily investment business.

Edwards previously served as Vice President of Acquisitions at Winn Development, generating over $900 million in acquisitions across 13 states. She supervised the sourcing and acquisition of residential housing properties, including rehabilitation of historic buildings and fracture condominium developments with a focus on the creation of mixed- and low-income housing. Her deal sourcing experience, savvy and detailed underwritings, and tenacious pursuit of quality projects or acquisition opportunities make her invaluable to The Davis Companies.

These are just a few of the reasons we chose Edwards as one of the 2020 Women in Real Estate Award winners. Connect Media’s Women in Real Estate Awards honor the achievements and inspirational stories of women who have reached respected positions of leadership and play key mentorship roles for others.

Never one to hesitate from uplifting others, Edwards ensures that others utilize the insight that she has gained through experience, helping others develop their careers. Currently, she is a member of the Government Affairs Committee and sits on the board of the Real Estate Finance Association at the Greater Boston Real Estate Board.
