srmErnst Development Partners is a full service commercial real estate development firm based in Oakland, CA. We acquire, design and execute projects that transform environments and support the Bay Area’s most innovative industries. Our local focus and familiarity with the Bay Area market and emerging industries allows us to create projects that attract capital, tenants, and buyers. We specialize in value-add urban infill office, industrial and mixed-use, turn-key build-to-suit, and adaptive reuse. We target underutilized or underperforming assets in transit and job center-oriented urban infill, urbanized suburban infill, and business park sites.  

We have built a diverse and accomplished team that excels in focused execution and hands-on involvement across all phases of the development process, from acquisition through exit. We partner with investors and businesses that share our vision to rethink existing properties, and our values of community engagement, job creation, and progressive placemaking.

Founded in 1992 as SRM Associates, a firm often ranked as one of the leading commercial developers in the Bay Area, srmErnst Development Partners continues this legacy having entitled and/or developed $1.5 billion of CRE since 2012 across mixed-use, office/R&D, manufacturing and creative industrial properties.
