Our Story

We, Mark and Matt Ivey, were introduced to the residential construction industry in 1984 when our father, Jake Ivey, started building homes in the Augusta area. While the opportunity was there to work for our father after college, we both felt it was important to establish ourselves independently, with us having other aspirations at the time. Mark went on to be Vice President of a statewide engineering firm, while Matt became a Vice President for a multi-national real estate firm. While both of us experienced success in our respective fields, the entrepreneurial bug we picked up from our father never left us.

 

In 2004, Ivey Residential was formed. When we started our company, we wanted to differentiate ourselves from the competition. We knew that with our name as part of the business, we did not want to just be the lowest price per square foot builder. With the success we’d had prior to starting Ivey Residential, Mark’s civil engineering degree and Matt’s master’s in real estate, we felt like we could create a system and environment where we could offer a better home at a very competitive price while providing good personalization choices and options, and in a framework that made the process easier.

 

Despite the ebbs and flows of homebuilding, from recessions to pandemics, we’ve continued to do well. We've now expanded our business to multiple operations all under the umbrella of our parent company, Ivey Group. Ivey Residential has grown to be a top 200 builder in the US, Ivey Development is one of the largest neighborhood developers in Augusta, and we've now built or developed over 750 units of rental development.

 

Ivey South takes our skills in the multifamily construction field and merges it with our experience in the residential development space. With over 40 years of exposure to the residential construction industry, we understand the struggles that development companies face during the planning and pricing process.

​

Ivey South doesn't just provide construction services; we offer insight during all stages of development. Our background in constructing multifamily developments enables us to help you avoid common challenges throughout the project development process.  

 

When you work with Ivey South, you benefit from over 40 years of industry expertise and a commitment to excellence that ensures every project is handled with the utmost care and professionalism. Trust in Ivey means trust in quality, innovation, and a seamless construction experience from start to finish.​
