SAVANNAH, GA – May 15, 2025

JLM Living, a leading real estate development company specializing in build-to-rent communities, today announced that the first rental units at the highly anticipated The Eleanor Savannah will begin vertical construction soon. Located on Little Neck Road in Bloomingdale, GA, this 253-unit community is on track for its initial unit deliveries in the 1st quarter of 2026, signaling a major milestone for JLM Living’s growing build-to-rent portfolio in the Southeast.

Future residents and investors will soon see the tangible results of JLM Living’s strategic development. 

The Eleanor Savannah will boast an array of desirable amenities, including a state-of-the-art community center, a fully equipped fitness center, a refreshing pool, and expansive walking trails, all meticulously designed to enhance the resident experience and foster a vibrant community atmosphere. These features are critical drivers of tenant satisfaction and retention, directly contributing to the long-term value and investment appeal of the property. 

“The Eleanor Savannah’s exceptional location and construction progress underscores the rapid realization of our vision for our build-to-rent platform,” said Chris Votaw, Co-Founder & Partner. “This project represents the attractive investment opportunities JLM Living offers its investors under the rapidly growing and fundamentally strong build-to-rent asset class, particularly in the robust Savannah market. We are positioned to deliver strong, risk-adjusted returns to our partners as we prepare for the first residents to move in.” 

The entire Eleanor Savannah project is slated for completion in November 2026, with attractive rental units being turned over for occupancy each month prior. JLM Living’s efficient development timeline and proactive management approach aim to maximize yield and control risk for its investors.
