A Maryland native, Stanley Greenberg founded Tidewater in 1989. He didn’t stray far from his alma mater, the University of Baltimore, where he graduated with a degree in engineering. A later degree in accounting rounds out Stanley’s expertise. After auditing for the City of Baltimore and years of practical experience managing thirty shopping centers, Stanley opened Tidewater Property Management. What started life as a home-grown property management firm, was destined to grow into a full-service Real Estate company. Stanley provides leadership to the Property Management, Maintenance and Realty Group divisions of The Tidewater Companies. He’s also dedicated to preserving Tidewater communities’ best interests and works with builders and developers, formulating governing documents, developing budgets, and setting up associations throughout the state. While Stanley and the team remain the utmost professionals in their responsibilities, Stanley also ensures that his employees enjoy their work environment. His favorite aspect of The Tidewater culture is the balance between “working hard and having fun.” Stanley’s commitment to the industry and the community extends into his personal life. He has served as a board member of several charitable organizations and associations in addition to contributing to several charities and community events as a way of “giving back” to the community.

Reesa grew up in Baltimore and has been happily married for twenty-five years. She is the mother of two gorgeous daughters.
