development opportunities in the growing<br />
<strong>Omaha</strong> market.<br />
N. P. (Sandy) Dodge IV followed in his<br />
father’s footsteps—serving in the Air Force<br />
and taking over leadership of the company. As<br />
president and chairman of the board, Sandy<br />
has taken the company into property<br />
management, title services and corporate<br />
relocation. At the same time, residential sales,<br />
land development and insurance have grown<br />
in size and services while the company has<br />
become even more firmly rooted in <strong>Omaha</strong>.<br />
Every day that Sandy continues at the helm<br />
preserves the company’s status as the nation’s<br />
only real estate firm to be led by the same<br />
family from its inception.<br />
Like his predecessor Dodges, N. P. (Nate)<br />
Dodge V got some East Coast seasoning<br />
before settling into the family business. Nate<br />
developed financial training programs for<br />
large banking entities and for training and<br />
management positions at Fannie Mae in<br />
Washington, D.C. He now oversees NP Dodge<br />
Property Management Company, which<br />
maintains and leases over five thousand<br />
apartments in a three-state area. He also is<br />
president of <strong>Omaha</strong> Title and Escrow, one of<br />
the largest such companies in the metro area.<br />
The Dodge legacy is not just commercial.<br />
Contributions of the company and the family<br />
to the community extend beyond the business<br />
world. Work with local civic and charitable<br />
organizations has been a natural extension of<br />
the company’s role in land and community<br />
development. Each generation has been<br />
committed to the growth of <strong>Omaha</strong>, home of<br />
the Dodges and source of their livelihood.<br />
Each family member has been involved in a<br />
multitude of organizations and events to<br />
support the <strong>Omaha</strong> area.<br />
The real estate market has ups and downs<br />
and never stops changing. The company has<br />
responded and adapted right along with the<br />
market, always willing to try new strategies. By<br />
finding the right combination of innovation<br />
and consistency, the company has been able to<br />
maintain its reputation for integrity while<br />
offering a variety of services and products to<br />
capitalize on new markets and economies.<br />
Laws, business practices, customer demands<br />
and market factors change, but N. P. Dodge<br />
continues to do what it does best–real estate.<br />
The various divisions of the company are<br />
thriving. They are independent, yet they provide<br />
a mutually supportive infrastructure that helps<br />
move any venture forward. The company as a<br />
whole continues to flourish because of its<br />
leadership and being committed to the same<br />
solid principles it had in 1855: honest effort,<br />
perseverance, a willingness to innovate and<br />
confidence in the future.<br />
Few businesses have shared–and helped<br />
shape—the fortunes of the metro area as<br />
much as the NP Dodge Company. To learn<br />
