Arlington, Va. | March 31, 2026 – RHO Residential is proud to announce that it has been named a finalist for the 2026 National Apartment Association (NAA) Top Employers Award, marking the fifth consecutive year the company has received this national recognition.

Presented annually by the National Apartment Association, the NAA Top Employers Awards recognize management companies and suppliers across the rental housing industry that have gone above and beyond in fostering workplace cultures centered around employee growth, engagement, and contribution.

The awards are divided into four categories, including supplier companies and management companies categorized by size: small businesses with up to 100 employees, medium businesses with 101–500 employees, and large businesses with more than 500 employees. Winners and finalists are determined directly by employee feedback collected through anonymous satisfaction surveys, making the recognition especially meaningful.

“At RHO Residential, our people are the foundation of everything we do,” said Brenda Cioce, President and Founder of RHO Residential. “Being recognized for the fifth consecutive year as an NAA Top Employers finalist is an incredible honor because it reflects the voices and experiences of our team members. We have always believed that creating a workplace where people feel supported, valued, and inspired directly impacts the communities we serve.”

Since its founding in 2019, RHO Residential has continued to grow throughout New Jersey and beyond while maintaining a strong people-first culture rooted in collaboration, positivity, professional development, and resident-focused service. The company has earned national recognition for its workplace environment, employee engagement initiatives, and commitment to cultivating meaningful career opportunities within the multifamily industry.

The NAA Top Employers program provides participating organizations with employee sentiment insights through confidential survey feedback, helping companies strengthen workplace culture and team experience across all levels of the organization.

“This recognition reflects the culture our teams have built together,” said David Schoer, Chief Financial Officer of RHO Residential. “As we continue to expand our portfolio and operations, maintaining a strong employee experience remains one of our highest priorities. We are proud of the environment we’ve created and grateful to our teams for making RHO such a special place to work.”
