Development

As a licensed architect, design is very important to Domus Development founder, Eric Jakimier. From the buildings to the interiors to the marketing, it all matters.

Jakimier has designed everything from creative pool cabanas, majestic churches to master planned international airports. While versed in all areas of real estate development, bringing function and style to student housing in secondary and tertiary markets is a main focus for Domus Development, the development arm of Domus Student Living.

The Domus team tailors each property to its market and differentiates it through creative and purposeful design. The goal is to be the best apartment, the best retail; the best development of any type in that city. Domus always continues to strive higher.  Not only for themselves but encouraging development partners, subcontractors, service providers and also students who live in Domus Student Living communities to all strive higher.

Empowering people is what Domus does.

Bringing tier one amenities to tier two universities provides foundational support that every student deserves regardless of the size of their higher learning institution.

Domus Development was born in 2010, not long after the height of the global financial crisis. While other real estate development companies were idling down, Domus was gearing up. With an eye on the future, there is no time like the present to manifest your dreams.

Professional due diligence, creative design, careful project management and good old-fashioned hard work resulted in student living communities such as Legends Nacogdoches, Lofts Nacogdoches and Legends Kingsville opening at 100% occupancy.

From a West Texas ranch house theme to a contemporary take on a New Mexico ski lodge to a colorful, modern tribute to renowned Mexican architects, Barragán and Legoretta, each Domus student housing development has its own unique personality.

Careful attention to detail is evident including paying homage to area legends, school spirit and supporting students, our future leaders of the world. Creating community within a community and elevating the experience for everyone is our passion. We love what we do.
