CREID - Commercial Real Estate Investment Discussions

It's CREID night. Join us this evening for Happy Hour at 5 PM — sponsored by Duff Co | Duffey Construction — followed by our monthly meeting at 6 PM. Sam Coryell of TLC Properties shares the story of building a 2,700-unit Midwest portfolio over 38 years. Sunshine Event Center, Plaza Towers, Springfield MO. Free to attend. See you there.
CREID - Built to Pivot: TLC Property's Multi-family Story

In 1988, TLC Properties started with a single 12-unit apartment community. Today they manage nearly 2,700 apartment homes across the Midwest. That kind of growth doesn't happen by accident — it happens by being willing to adapt, pivot, and put people first, decade after decade.

This Thursday, CREID welcomes Sam M. Coryell for a candid conversation on 38 years of building through change: shifting markets, operational challenges, and the leadership decisions that shaped what TLC is today.

Whether you're in development, investment, or property management — or just looking to grow your perspective — this is a session worth showing up for.
