BRE develops, acquires and manages highly desirable apartment communities in the West\'s most sought-after places to live. We understand the value of home and how to enhance it—for our residents, our communities and our investors. Our business touches one of the most personal aspects of our customers\' lives—the place they call home. We believe this creates not just a responsibility, but a tremendous opportunity to set ourselves apart by seeing things from our residents\' point of view and putting them first in all we do. The power of this viewpoint is what\'s good for our residents is good for our company. As we build relationships with the people and communities we serve, we set ourselves apart in the marketplace and create long-term, income-producing investments for our shareholders.
