Property management and development firm Greystar is expanding its reach into infrastructure with the hire of Michael Hoverman as the Executive Director of Infrastructure.
Greystar's strategy for infrastructure is driven by the shifting landscape of today's cities—primarily in the increased digitization, urbanization, and transitions to clean energy. The company's mission aims to improve supportive infrastructure from waste management to reliable power grid demands.

Other “adjacent thematic opportunities” the company has identified include data center development, transportation, social infrastructure, and logistic facilities. For its existing real estate footprint, Greystar plans to integrate infrastructure such as rooftop solar, cell towers, battery storage, fiber internet, and electric vehicle charging with its housing.
“Expanding into infrastructure is a natural progression for us as we continue to seek opportunities that support better living and provide high value to our residents,” says Bob Faith, Founder and CEO, Greystar. “We’re particularly excited about the opportunities within infrastructure that align with the accelerating urbanization of great cities around the world.”
