Coastal Media Co. was founded in 2014 by Greg Meerbaum (CEO) and Tyler Bloechinger (CFO) as the first company established under the Coastal platform — laying the foundation for what would become a diversified portfolio of businesses, real estate investments, and strategic ventures. In 2017, Keith Ahrens joined the leadership team as Chief Operating Officer, helping to accelerate the growth and operational success of Coastal’s expanding platform.

​

Over the past decade, Coastal’s leadership team has focused on identifying, developing, and investing in exceptional opportunities across multiple asset classes. Through a disciplined investment approach and strategic partnerships, the executive team has cultivated substantial interests in businesses and real estate representing approximately $4.7 billion in aggregate asset value.*

​

What began as a small group of family and friends participating in carefully selected investments has evolved into a platform that provides accredited investors access to institutional-quality real estate and alternative investment opportunities. Today, Coastal leverages its experience, industry relationships, and rigorous evaluation process to identify opportunities that align with its long-term investment philosophy.
