A key aspect of Amy Johnson’s role at Minnetonka-based multifamily housing developer Roers Cos. is to ensure that newly constructed properties open at or above the company’s occupancy targets. She also leads staff and contractors in tackling all facets of marketing for two corporate brands and approximately 40 property brands.

Johnson’s tenacity helped ensure that Roers’ portfolio improved its occupancy numbers in 2020 over 2019, despite the past year’s challenges. Thanks largely to her hard work and creativity, two new Roers property brands that were launched last year opened ahead of projections.
