CES Properties, Inc. is a trusted real estate investment firm with a 50+ year track record, delivering durable returns through disciplined asset management, rigorous underwriting, integrity-led leadership, and the creation of thriving, high-quality communities.
Creating Assets.
Investing for Performance.
Since its founding in 1969, CES has built a strong reputation for creating equity and delivering consistent returns.
Through a strategy grounded in partnership and performance, we’ve integrated nearly every facet of the real estate industry into our business model.
Our capabilities span a wide range of services — from managing commercial spaces and storage facilities to investing in single-family and multifamily developments. We also provide project financing, structure equity partnerships, and have overseen the construction and development of multifamily communities we proudly own and operate.
At CES, we’re dedicated to building lasting value — for our partners, our investors, and the communities we help shape.

A Legacy of Vision, Growth & Performance
More than 50 years ago, Charles Ed Springman recognized the potential of the Pacific Northwest and invested in what would become one of the nation’s most dynamic real estate markets.
Today, this region stands among the most valuable in the country, with CES playing a defining role in shaping its communities and developments.
For decades, CES has delivered consistent, above-market returns—earning the trust and loyalty of investors who have remained with the firm for generations. Because of this strong demand, equity offerings have often sold out within hours, creating a highly competitive environment among investors looking to participate.
As a new generation steps forward to carry on the CES legacy, exclusive investment opportunities are emerging for forward-looking investors. CES continues to be a cornerstone for those seeking performance, partnership, and a proven tradition of real estate excellence.
