Continental Properties has been named to the NMHC Top 25 Developers list for the second consecutive year and, for the first time, recognized among the NMHC Top 50 Owners. These rankings are part of the NMHC 50, the organization’s annual lists of the nation’s leading apartment owners, developers, builders, managers, and syndicators.
“To be recognized once again among the nation’s top developers, and to earn a place on the Top 50 Owners list speaks to the collective effort of our entire team,” said Kim Grimm, Chief Development & Construction Officer at Continental Properties. “The multifamily market is navigating a period of transition, shaped by recent supply levels, evolving capital markets, and sustained demand for attainable rental housing. Our focus remains on being disciplined, adaptable, and forward-thinking as we continue to deliver communities that meet the needs of residents today and position us for long-term success.”

Last week, members of Continental’s Marketing team, Garrett Hrncir, Gazelle Liss, Andria Kimble, and Pieper House attended the 2026 Apartment Innovation and Marketing Conference (AIM) in Huntington Beach, California.
During the three-day event, the team explored key topics including AI readiness and governance, AEO and renter search, reputation management, and emerging technology. The team also connected with industry peers, including our partners at Apartment List and Zillow.
“AIM continues to be a valuable opportunity to step outside of our day-to-day work and engage in thoughtful conversations about the future of multifamily marketing,” said Gazelle Liss, Communications & PR Manager. “The conference reinforced many of the priorities already guiding our work at Continental while offering a fresh perspective on how we can continue strengthening our marketing strategy in a rapidly evolving industry.”
Happy Mother’s Day from Continental! 💐
This weekend, we’re celebrating the many ways motherhood shows up - from biological moms, stepmoms, adoptive and foster moms, grandmothers, expectant and bereaved moms, and all the mother figures who lead with love, strength, and care.
To the incredible moms on our team: we see everything you bring to our workplace, your families, and the lives around you. Your dedication, compassion, and resilience inspire us every day. Wishing you a Mother’s Day filled with joy, gratitude, and special moments with those who matter most!

Last week, Beth Ann Meckstroth and Kyle Rich attended Workhuman Live 2026 Conference in Orlando, FL - an energizing experience centered on the future of work and the power of connection!
From thought‑provoking speakers on the evolving workforce to meaningful conversations with HR and people leaders, the conference reinforced an important message: while technology will continue to evolve, people will always be the true differentiator.
Beth Ann shared, “This experience reinforced how important connection is and why people will always be a company’s most valuable asset. It was energizing to be part of conversations that put relationships and learning at the center of the work we do.”

🎬 Tuesday sparked creativity with Favorite Show or Movie Character Day, featuring both coordinated team looks and individual character moments.
👔 Wednesday showcased Favorite Pattern Day, with bold stripes, classic polka dots, and standout prints across teams.
📍 Thursday celebrated Local Pride Day, highlighting hometowns, current cities, favorite teams, and places that matter most.
