Essex Property Trust is a self-administered and self-managed REIT focused on the ownership, operation, management, acquisition, development, and redevelopment of apartment communities predominantly along the West Coast of the United States. As of December 31, 2025, the company owned or had ownership interests in 259 operating apartment communities comprising 63,077 apartment homes. The company employs a research-driven investment approach, targeting major metropolitan areas exceeding one million in regional population with supply constraints driven by limited developable land, political growth barriers, and natural limitations. Essex evaluates markets based on job growth, high median incomes, and rental affordability relative to for-sale housing costs, and regularly adjusts its geographic portfolio allocation in response to cyclical regional economic conditions.
