Today, Horst Group consists of three core business units: Construction Services, Insurance & Benefits, and Management Services. This enables us to tap into decades of experience and significant expertise to more effectively manage commercial properties, condo & homeowner associations, and senior living facilities.
Horst’s vision is to perform with a passion for excellence, while doing the right things the right way.
