History
Aimco traces its roots to The Considine Company, formed in 1975 by Terry Considine.
Aimco was incorporated on January 10, 1994.[1]
On July 29, 1994, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.[3]
In 1994, Aimco acquired Homecorp, a management company with 5,300 units based in Montgomery, Alabama.[4]
In 1996, Aimco acquired Walters Management Company[5] and the J.W. English Company.[6]
Aimco also acquired a portion of the general partnership of Balcor Asset Management resulting in the addition of 67 properties in 3 states.
In 1997, Aimco acquired National Housing Partnership Incorporated, which owned 87,659 apartments.[7][8][9]
In October 1997, Aimco acquired 8,175 apartment units from Winthrop.[10]
In 1998, Aimco acquired Insignia Financial Group in a $910 million transaction.[11]
In 2000, the company acquired Oxford Realty Financial Group, which owned interests in 36,662 apartment units, for $314 million.[12] Also in 2000, the company acquired the Oxford Tax-Exempt Fund for $206 million.[13]
In 2002, Aimco acquired Casden Properties, founded by Alan Casden. The $1.5 billion acquisition included 17,383 apartments, including 6,356 conventional apartment units located in Southern California and 11,027 affordable apartment units in 25 states.[14]

In December 2020, Aimco was removed from the S&P 500, being replaced by Tesla, Inc., and coinciding with the AIR spinoff.[17] The spinoff left Aimco itself too small for inclusion in any of the S&P indices, while AIR was added to the S&P MidCap 400 Index.[18]
