Redwood Celebrates Prestigious Recognition for Online Reputation Management 

Redwood is proud to announce that three of its neighborhoods have been recognized among the Elite 1% of conventional properties for 2024 by J Turner Research and Multifamily Executive.  

The Elite 1% ORA® Power Ranking, now in its 11th year, evaluates over 144,000 properties nationwide to identify those with the highest Online Reputation Assessment (ORA®) scores. This independent ranking aggregates and analyzes online ratings from leading review sites and Internet Listing Services (ILSs) to generate a comprehensive measure of a property’s online reputation.  

A total of 1,371 conventional properties made the Elite list for 2024. These properties had to register a minimum ORA score of 93 as of December 2024 and have at least 20 online reviews to be eligible for the Elite 1% 2024 ranking.  

Redwood is proud to recognize the following neighborhoods for their Elite 1% rankings: 

“It is truly an honor to have more than one Redwood Neighborhood among the Elite 1%,” said Mike VanGelder, EVP of Property Operations at Redwood. “Each time we are recognized for our reputation, it’s because of our incredible people at our neighborhoods. Their dedication to providing a remarkable experience to every prospect, resident, and vendor who walks through the door is clearly making an impact.” 

Redwood’s on-site teams are the highlight of the reviews across sites like Google, Apartments.com and more. Read a few of the recent reviews from Redwood’s ORA Elite 1% neighborhoods: 


“The maintenance crew here at Redwood Canal Winchester is fantastic! They are prompt and courteous when requested for assistance. Andy and Brian were very polite and sociable. Great work ethic and they got the job done!!”

“Had an emergency after hours with our power and had to call 24 hr maintenance. The gentleman that came was amazing. He told me he would be there within 15 minutes and he was. He figured out that consumers accidentally shut our power off instead of another apartments and he stayed until consumers fixed the problem to make sure it was fixed. We love redwoods of Battle Creek and all the staff there.”

I must say, this place exceeded all my expectations. The modern living space and outstanding customer service were exceptional. This is precisely the kind of community anyone would want to live in. Carol & Heather were fantastic, going the extra mile to assist me. As I was relocating, I had numerous questions, and the team at Redwood was incredibly helpful and accommodating. I genuinely appreciated the tranquility and peaceful atmosphere at Redwood North Canton. I almost wish I hadn’t found a home yet, as I would have loved to stay longer. I will definitely recommend Redwood North Canton to my friends and family.
