About Us

By the early 1980s, TDC owned and managed properties across Houston, San Antonio, Lake Jackson, and South Texas, including mini-warehouses and retail centers before eventually expanding into Florida by the mid-1980’s.

By the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, TDC had further broadened its footprint across the Southeast and Midwest, diversifying into retirement housing, condominiums.

In the early 2000s, TDC strengthened its leadership team with the addition of Brian Dinerstein and John Caltagirone. In 2004, the company sold a portfolio of 28 student housing assets to GMH Communities, facilitating GMH’s IPO. During this period, TDC transitioned into working with larger, institutional investors and opened its first West Coast office in Los Angeles in 2007. Brad Dinerstein joined the following year in 2008, bringing with him a further emphasis on design efficiency and collaboration.

During the 2010s, TDC focused on larger-scale, sustainable developments, including podium-style, mixed-use, and high-rise multi-family and student housing projects. The company soon became one of the largest developers of LEED-certified apartments in the country, earning the U.S. Green Building Council’s Builder of the Year award in 2015.

Since 2011, TDC has capitalized over $5 billion in new developments and acquired over $1.3 billion in residential and mixed-use properties and launched a full-service investment management platform.

Today, TDC is a nationally recognized, vertically integrated firm specializing in development, construction, property management, and investment management of multifamily, student housing, and build-to-rent properties across the country.

TDC celebrated its 70th anniversary as a private, family-owned business. While our company and the apartment industry as a whole have evolved and grown significantly over the decades, TDC has operated continuously with the same core values and mission since day one: to do right by our residents, employees, and partners, improve the areas in which we work, and to develop sustainable communities that endure.
