Long-Term Investment Approach
Dollinger Properties has taken a long-term investment approach to property development, buying and renovating existing buildings, constructing new properties, and maintaining ownership of assets. Today, we are the largest landlord of multi-tenant space in the Silicon Valley. Unlike most developers in the area, Dollinger Properties takes a hands-on approach by combining development, construction, leasing and property management services within a single organization. Our portfolio of premier R&D/Industrial Flex and Retail properties reflects our management skills and four generations of experience.
Who We Are

The firm and its principals are the general partners of numerous partnerships that develop and own properties in California and Arizona. The Dollingers own DPM Property Management Inc.

Corporate Gifting
Giving Back and Supporting the Communities That Support Us
Dollinger Properties and its founders have a long-standing commitment to giving back and supporting the communities that support us. We believe that strong communities build strong businesses, and we’re proud to lead by example through our value-driven approach. One way we achieve this is by offering a corporate matching program for our employees, which matches charitable donations up to 10% of their annual salary. This initiative not only amplifies the impact of our team’s generosity but also reflects our shared dedication to making a meaningful difference beyond the workplace.
