Evaluate core opportunities through income durability, credit tenancy, and long‑term yield and appreciation metrics. Prepare and present investment memorandums, underwriting files, pursuit budgets, and recommendations for Investment Committee approval. Manage the internal approval workflow for all potential acquisitions-development, value‑add, and core-ensuring timely and accurate documentation. Due Diligence Leadership (Land, Entitlement, & Building Evaluation) Direct all due diligence for land, including environmental, geotechnical, access, utilities, zoning, and entitlements. Oversee due diligence on existing industrial assets, including property condition assessments, lease audits, tenant interviews, expense reconciliations, tax evaluations, and compliance matters. Coordinate consultants to validate buildable area, infrastructure needs, and development feasibility prior to handoff to regional development teams. Develop clear summaries outlining risks, financial impacts, and go/no‑go recommendations. Cross‑Functional Collaboration Partner with development teams on land opportunities to ensure seamless transfer of underwriting assumptions, due diligence findings, and strategic rationale. Collaborate with asset management and operations teams on value‑add and core opportunities to evaluate operating histories, leasing strategies, and long‑term asset positioning. Work closely with design, construction, permitting, and market research teams to refine underwriting and validate feasibility. Support senior leadership with analytics, reporting, and strategic market insights.

Provide regular updates to executives and equity partners on pipeline activity, market trends, and investment themes. Represent Greystar at industry events, municipal meetings, and capital markets discussions.
