Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc., Abode Properties, and affiliates own and operate properties in 14 states, with over half being in the top 30% of top US states for business. For the past decade, TCI has been strategically focused on acquiring or developing new apartments in specific areas of the country. “It was most interesting to see how ChiefExecutive.net’s rankings aligned with our view of the various markets around the country,” noted CEO and President Daniel J. Moos. “Though it was no surprise that Texas was ranked number 1, it was equally interesting that the 6 states where the bulk of our assets and development activity reside are in the top 25% of the overall rankings.”

The ranking is compiled by surveying hundreds of top CEOs across the country.

“Chief Executive's ranking just proves what we have long known to be true,” continued Moos. “Our assets are in the best states for real estate development and investment, major corporate headquarters, and overseas investment.”
