About Greystar Real Estate Partners

Greystar Real Estate Partners is an institutional investment manager and a fully integrated real estate platform, established in 1993 and headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina. Its mandate covers investment management, development and property management in the rental housing sector. It operates globally on a vertically integrated model, and in the more than three decades since its start it has built a significant presence in the global real estate market, concentrating on long-term value creation through specialized operational expertise. That longevity and scale make it a permanent fixture of the institutional real estate landscape and a stable platform for its investment activities and management services worldwide. Its strategy targets primary asset classes of traditional multifamily housing, student housing and active adult communities, and it has expanded into specialized sectors including single-family rentals, modular housing, logistics and life sciences. Geographically it spans North America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific region and South America. With local market expertise in nearly 250 markets globally, the firm can identify and unlock high-quality opportunities consistent with its vertically integrated approach to development and construction. The approach depends on close coordination between the investment management arm and the operational teams in each market, who handle the complexities of varied rental housing types, adapting to each region while keeping a consistent standard of service and execution across the global portfolio. At an organizational level, Greystar manages more than 1.1 million multifamily units and student beds worldwide. Its clients are institutional investors such as pension funds, endowments and sovereign wealth funds, who gain access to the global investment platform and local market insights. Numerous regional offices give it a physical presence in the markets where it invests and manages properties, supporting its wealth of experience with all product types in its remit and its global client base. The platform pairs large-scale institutional capabilities with specialized local knowledge, giving a comprehensive real estate service that reaches multiple continents and asset classes, and its continued expansion and operational depth keep it a major participant in international real estate investment and management.
