About Ayres Commercial Properties
Shaping Southern California since 1905
Our Story
1905
In 1905, Frank H. Ayres took a $2 train ride from Ohio to California with his wife and young son, Donald Sr, to explore land development opportunities for his employer. Eventually, Frank H. Ayres formed a company of his own and continued to develop land throughout Los Angeles County.
1920's
The Ayres Family continued to expand, venturing into residential and commercial real estate. In the roaring ’20s, the Ayres began homebuilding and developed single family home sites, apartments and commercial units in the Pico/Robertson areas. It was then that the Ayres’ brand of high-quality property development made its mark on Southern California.
1950's
In the mid-1950’s, the son of Don Ayres Sr, Don Ayres Jr, joined the firm to perpetuate the family tradition and brought along foresight, versatility and innovative thinking that eventually led to the development of the first Ayres Hotel in the early ’80s. Now, the Ayres Family owns, operates and manages 24 hotels and resorts in Southern California.
