About NORF Companies
Founded in 2013 by Tulane University alumni Alex Hernandez and Mike Niemtzow, NORF Companies is driven by a mission to execute tax-incentivized historic redevelopment and urban renewal. Rooted in New Orleans but operating nationally, the firm has acquired over sixty properties across diverse asset types, consistently delivering successful outcomes on complex, high-profile projects that others often avoid.
NORF is headquartered in New Orleans, with additional operations in Tyler, TX, and Miami. The firm has built a strong reputation for disciplined execution, analytical rigor, and results-driven performance. Guided by a commitment to excellence, innovation, and collaboration, NORF fosters a well-balanced corporate culture that values diversity, professional development, accountability, and hard work. Through the redevelopment of historic buildings and the revitalization of underutilized neighborhoods, the company generates compelling returns for investors while creating lasting economic and social impact.
The Opportunity
NORF Companies is seeking a Real Estate Development Intern to support real estate development, financial analysis, and market research initiatives based in New Orleans. This internship is designed for high-performing undergraduate business students seeking hands-on exposure to real estate investment, development strategy, and business analytics within a fast-paced entrepreneurial environment.
This role offers a flexible schedule, ranging from part-time to full-time during the summer and part-time during the academic year.
