Jonathan Rodbell co-founded Atlanta Property Group (APG) in 2003. APG is a real estate investment firm that owns office and industrial properties. Since its founding, APG has owned or operated more than 50 assets totaling 10 million square feet in Atlanta and other Sunbelt markets. Jonathan focuses on strategic initiatives including capital relationships and lowering the carbon footprint of the firm’s portfolio.
Prior to forming APG, Jonathan served four years as Vice President of Apex Supply Company, a distributor of building materials, which was founded by the Rodbell family in 1949 and acquired by The Home Depot in 2000. Jonathan began his career in the acquisition departments of JMB Realty and Lazard Frères Real Estate Investors in Chicago and New York, respectively.

Jonathan is a native of Atlanta and currently lives in Buckhead with his wife, Heather. They have one college-aged and one high school-aged child.
Why the Coalition is important to me:
I am proud to be part of the Buckhead Coalition as its members continue to help make Buckhead, and Atlanta as whole, a better place to live and work. The organization provides a forum for leaders to convene and coalesce around issues critical to the community.
Individual leaders matter. Leaders working together can have an even greater impact.
