Greystar
Greystar is a vertically integrated rental housing company offering expertise in investment management, property management, and development globally. We own, operate, and develop rental housing, including traditional multifamily, mixed-use, student living, active adult, and corporate housing. Back in 1993, when Founder, Chairman, and CEO Bob Faith set out to build Greystar, he saw a highly fragmented multifamily industry that was more focused on assets than people. He envisioned the need for an industry leader, a company that operated with the highest integrity and character in delivering world-class services to residents, property owners and investors. With a winning strategy and a focus on people, Greystar set out to meet that need -- guided by the mission of enriching the lives we touch by doing things the right way. “Our core values and our people are at the heart of everything we do,” says Bob. “Though times and technology may change, it all comes back to people, and it’s our people who’ve made Greystar the global multifamily housing leader.”
