Our Company's History

Started in 1987 by Mr. Ruel M. Hamilton, AmeriSouth Realty Group (then Olympic Realty) originally began by providing fee management for multi-family and commercial properties owned by various savings and loans, the FDIC, the then RTC and managed the assets for institutions of that type all over the State of Texas. Around 1991/1992, the company began concentrating on the management of C class multi-family apartment communities. At that time, the company took over a number of properties, and completed the turn around of these properties and the fee management for both individual and commercial owners and investors.

In the beginning of 1995, the company began purchasing interests in properties themselves, and that is what they continue to focus on today. The true objective of the company involves the acquisition, operation and brokerage of C class multi-family housing. AmeriSouth strives to emphasize the acquisition and renovation of their properties while preserving that property's current market sector.

The company officially became AmeriSouth Realty Group in September of 2000. AmeriSouth currently owns and operates just over 4,000 units, contained in 25 properties located throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, as well as in Austin and Texarkana. AmeriSouth has embraced technology to efficiently operate our portfolio, utilizing a variety of web based applications and collaborative tools to give our management team access to real time information.

AmeriSouth retains over 150 employees, and sees their people as a primary focus of the business. Part of the AmeriSouth business plan has always been to train and retain as many good people for the long term as possible. AmeriSouth has several veteran employees that have been with the company 20 years.
