Andrew N. Tanner

Andrew Tanner joined The NRP Group in 2000 and soon became the Chief Financial Officer of the company. Tanner is an NRP Principal, Director and a key member of the NRP Executive Committee. As NRP CFO, Tanner leads all phases of strategic planning, corporate and project finance, accounting, capital markets, property disposition, legal, investor relations, tax planning, risk management, asset management and information systems.

Through his 20 years with The NRP Group, Tanner has developed best-in-class systems, processes and tools that have enabled NRP to deliver top-tier investment returns and outstanding long-term performance. In that time, the company has developed nearly 40,000 units of multifamily residential real estate representing over $6 billion in development cost with market rate dispositions representing more than $1.5 billion.

During Tanner’s tenure, The NRP Group has been named the 2020 NMHC #6 Top Multifamily Builder in the U.S. and #7 Top Multifamily Developer, and Affordable Housing Finance has named The NRP Group #4 Top Affordable Housing Developer and #12 Top Owner in the U.S. The NRP Group is a three-time recipient of the National Association of Builders Multifamily (NAHB) Pillars of the Industry award for national “Development Firm of the Year,” and has become the top multifamily developer in the U.S. that creates both affordable and market rate housing at national scale. Tanner has earned a well-deserved reputation for combining the best people, process and technology to deliver consistent stand-out bottom-line performance. He believes that trust drives business relationships and results directly from having excellent people who deliver predictable modeled outcomes while engaging in industry-leading communication and transparency. In the past five years, Tanner has been instrumental in leading The NRP Group through the successful retirement of two of the original company founders and the onboarding of TriPost Capital Partners, a private equity firm that has brought tremendous value to the business. Since that time, The NRP Group has continued to accelerate topline growth and profitability. Prior to joining NRP, Tanner spent eight years with Medimetrix Consulting, a Cleveland-based management consulting firm where he performed strategic planning, interim financial management and mergers and acquisitions services. Before that, Tanner served as an auditor with Arthur Andersen & Co. and held various other roles in accounting and financial management. In 2018, Tanner joined the advisory board of The Ohio State Center for Real Estate at Fisher College of Business. He also sits on the Board of Trustees of Westside Christian Academy where he leads the school's facility planning activities and serves as co-chair for its ongoing capital campaign. Previously, Tanner participated in Cleveland's Business Volunteerism Council where he served on the advisory council of the Benjamin Rose Institute on Aging. He also guided the strategic planning process of New Directions, a behavioral healthcare provider for chemically dependent adolescents. In 2010, Crain's Cleveland Business named Tanner CFO of the Year.

Tanner holds an MBA from The University of Chicago and a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Bowling Green State University.
