BEN TEXLER
Coastal Ridge Management
Ben Texler serves as the president of Coastal Ridge Managementand is a partner of Coastal Ridge Real Estate Partners. He is responsible for directing all aspects of the management operating platform and oversight of the $2.25 billion multifamily portfolio.
Within his role, he is responsible for the long-term strategic growth
of Coastal Ridge. Through the continual refinement of the com-
pany’s operational platform, and the associates who support the
organization, he is constantly defining, developing, executing and
assessing the corporate and operational strategies, plans and pro-
cedures. As a fearless leader, he inspires and motivates not only his
leadership team, but associates throughout the organization to
drive towards operational
excellence while fostering a
collaborative environment. He
lives the five attributes of lead-
ership every day, according to
colleagues. His communica-
tion and management style are
always clear, concise and to the

understand, and buy into the
directive, and is consistently
using communication to moti-
vate and inspire associates.”
While Texler has been a part of Coastal Ridge’s exponential growth
since the very beginning, he also focuses on helping others grow
within. According to one property manager at the firm, he makes
you feel valuable and heard—not an easy task. “I have never
worked for a company where a partner took that much stock in you
as an employee. I would not be at the place I am in my career with-
out him, his vision, and his dedication to excellence.”
