The History of Our Company

In 1986, Don Allen started the business now known as Donald H. Allen Development, Inc. The new company quickly became a highly sought-after builder of custom homes. Auburn University's phenomenal growth during this period created the need for new multi-family and student housing as well as related commercial development. This demand prompted the company's crossover from home builder to property development and multi-family residential and commercial construction. As Auburn continued to grow, so did our reputation as builders of quality residential and commercial projects. We also began to enjoy the repeat business of virtually all past customers and a reputation for delivering quality projects at a fair price. A large portion of our work comes from repeat customers who have come to expect the same high standard and on-time delivery of their projects. We believe in the establishment of a strong and mutually satisfying relationship with our customers, and we have incorporated these principles into all facets of our business philosophy. We strive to communicate with each customer clearly and concisely so that there are no misunderstandings or cause for errors or distrust.


Honesty is the Cornerstone of Our Company


We have established ourselves as leaders in the construction of high-quality apartments and condominiums in Auburn and the surrounding areas over our history. As we pursue new opportunities in that sector, we continue to expand our already impressive commercial and industrial construction portfolio. Our expertise and experience enable us to confidently tackle the most challenging projects in the area. As professional builders, we thrive on competition and innovation. Through continuous education, we stay current with the latest technologies, materials, methods, project management practices, safety protocols, logistics, and recordkeeping. This commitment ensures that our customers receive modern facilities at the best possible value.
