Virginia Business //September 2, 2025//
As leader of one of the largest real estate development companies in the southeastern United States, Leon is responsible for all company operations and new business development. Founded in 1906, Nusbaum has a property management portfolio exceeding 30,000 multifamily units.
Among other deals, the company is handling Texas convenience store chain Buc-ee’s expansion into the commonwealth, which includes the new Rockingham County location — the first in Virginia — that opened June 30. The chain has plans for at least two more locations in Virginia: one in New Kent County and one in Stafford County.
In March, Nusbaum negotiated LS GreenLink USA’s purchase of 96 acres in Chesapeake, where it is building a $680 million advanced cable manufacturing and port facility.
Leon earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia and his MBA from the University of Miami. He serves on the Old Dominion University Real Estate Foundation and Downtown Norfolk Council boards, among other civic duties.
