“To be on the Inc. 5000 for 13 years is a rare and remarkable feat,” says Don Wenner, founder and CEO of DLP Capital. “It’s an affirmation of the resounding demand for attainable workforce housing across the country, and a testament to the lasting dedication and trust that our investors, sponsors, residents, and employees have put in us.”
The Inc. 5000, published once per year by the New York City-headquartered Inc. Magazine, is an annual ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing companies as measured by cumulative revenue growth over the past three years. To be eligible for the 2025 Inc. 5000, companies must be “privately held, for profit, based in the U.S., and independent.” In addition, contenders must have generated no less than $100,000 in revenue in 2021 and at least $2 million in revenue in 2024 to qualify.
“To be on the Inc. 5000 for 13 years is a rare and remarkable feat,” says Don Wenner, founder and CEO of DLP Capital. “It’s an affirmation of the resounding demand for attainable workforce housing across the country, and a testament to the lasting dedication and trust that our investors, sponsors, residents, and employees have put in us.”
This year, DLP ranked #3,821 on the Inc. 5000, #344 in Florida, and #86 in the real estate category. “Disciplined thought, disciplined people, and disciplined action have led us to where we are today,” says Wenner. “Looking ahead, we aim to multiply our impact on America’s housing crisis by bringing Thriving Communities to life across our expanding portfolio of multifamily, build-to-rent, manufactured, and short-term vacation rental homes.”
DLP Capital joins an exclusive cohort of companies that have managed to grow despite inflationary headwinds, high interest rates, and mounting economic uncertainty. This year, the top 500 companies on the Inc. 5000 list achieved a median three-year revenue growth rate of 1,552% and collectively contributed over 48,000 jobs to the American economy during the same period.
