As President of Property Management at Lloyd Companies, Christie Ernst merges her passion for community and family with her role as a second-generation family member working in a business founded by her parents, Craig and Pat Lloyd, in 1972. She oversees a portfolio that includes 2 million square feet of commercial space and over 11,000 apartment units across multiple states. In addition to managing these assets, Christie is responsible for developing new business ventures and apartment communities. She collaborates closely with the design, marketing and training teams to enhance property aesthetics, market differentiation and continuous learning.
Christie’s passion for real estate and its impact on communities, employees, and investors has been a driving force in her career. She serves on the Lloyd Asset Management board and investment committee, where she gained valuable insights from her father, Craig Lloyd, on balancing asset stewardship with investor returns.
