Wrapping up 2021
We are both proud and humbled by the recent achievements within the Kimberley Development family. This year has been full of obstacles to overcome, decisions to be made and a whole lot of hard work by our amazing team and vendors. For over four decades, Kimberley Development has set the standards of excellence in design, quality and technologies in the homebuilding industry.

Showcasing in and Host of HomeShowExpo 2022
This year, we announced that our development, Kimberley Estates will be host in the HomeShowExpo 2022. We have been working on our home to showcase for the event and are thrilled to take on such a rewarding challenge. We are excited to see this former Century Farm become Ankeny’s newest luxury living community. The view in each home will be gorgeous with mature trees, and a tranquil four mile creek. Home sites are going up now, each with something unique and incredible to offer.
Opportunities to Support our Community
During this year, volunteer hours dropped significantly because of the pandemic. One of our priorities this year was to help where we could. Through volunteering, donating, and taking on roles to host fundraisers for such important causes, Kimberley Development Corp. has been an active part in multiple charities throughout Greater Des Moines. Supporting our local community has always been principal within our Kimberley Development family, and we are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to make a difference. We were able to get involved in the Habitat for Humanities Builders Circle, donate and take an active roll in the Good Vibes Movement, and donate to other local charities within Greater Des Moines. Seeing the tremendous effect these causes has on our community and its residents is the fuel to our fiery passion of providing a place for people to call home. We realize that in the face of the great need right now, our donation is a drop in the bucket. But it is our commitment to be better, do better, and build up our community.
We want to thank our entire team and their families for helping Kimberley Development achieve so much success this year. We have built so many gorgeous homes, have continued to provide the best customer experience we possibly can and are able to give back to the community that we love because of each individual who helps us work toward our goals. This years achievements were also made possible because of the many homebuyers who entrusted us with their dream home. We are thrilled to have been able to work with so many incredible families to build homes that will be cherished and provide stunning comfort and beauty that is a Kimberley Home.
Here is to the last few weeks of 2021, it was such a challenging year in so many ways and it made us stronger, it made us better. Thank you.
