Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Tuesday, January 27th, 2026

Chapco Design Build, a division of Jim Chapman Construction Group (JCCG), is marking the fifth anniversary of it constructing the amenity package at The Cottages at Ridge Pointe in Athens, Georgia. This project helped establish the firm’s approach to high-performing amenity construction and set an early benchmark for its growing portfolio.

Completed in 2021, the amenities supported Jim Chapman Construction Group’s first build-to-rent development and served as one of Chapco Design Build’s formative amenity projects. The scope and execution showcase the firm’s focus on durability and long-term operational performance, principles that continue to guide its work today.

“The Cottages at Ridge Pointe amenities represent more than a single project,” said Jay Kiger, president of Chapco Design Build. “They reflect our approach to amenity construction—disciplined planning, quality materials and spaces designed to perform over time for both residents and owners.”

The firm established its signature amenity package at The Cottages at Ridge Pointe, including a resident clubhouse with a fitness center, a resort-style swimming pool and an outdoor kitchen. It has since broadened its offerings to include dog parks, sports courts and other outdoor amenities.

Chapco Design Build continues to expand its footprint across the Southeast, delivering amenity complexes, retail centers and light industrial facilities for developers and investors seeking reliable execution and long-term value. Under the leadership of Jay Kiger, the firm has recently overseen the construction of more than 48,000 square feet of amenity space across 12 communities.

“Our reputation has been built project by project,” Kiger said. “The Cottages at Ridge Pointe is an early example of how thoughtful execution and attention to detail translate into repeatable success across multiple asset types.”

The amenity package at The Cottages at Ridge Pointe remains a reference point for Chapco Design Build’s growth, illustrating how early projects helped shape the firm’s construction platform and support its continued expansion across licensed markets in the Southeast.
