& values.

We combine our deep understanding of each market with 30+ years of expertise and a fresh innovative approach to the apartment industry, to build relationships and places in which people thrive – creating real and enduring value for our residents, investors and associates.

Welcome to Mill Creek!

Mill Creek’s mission and values unify our teams and guide our actions to do the right thing for our associates, residents and stakeholders.

Our company tagline – People. Places. Relationships. – serves as a reminder of this intent. The places and relationships we build with each other, our customers and our stakeholders in turn builds the Mill Creek culture.

It’s what makes us different from other apartment companies. Take a look….

There’s a good story behind the Mill Creek

name.

This is Trammell Crow. A real estate visionary.

Many of us are inspired by the vision of real estate pioneer Trammell Crow. “Mill Creek” was the name of Mr. Crow’s Texas retreat and tree farm which he said was his favorite place in the world.

In 2010, a team of former Trammell Crow Residential executives created Mill Creek Residential Trust - a fresh new company with a long and rich history.

We decided to name our company Mill Creek as an homage to Mr. Crow, who in his own way inspired this whole enterprise.
