GID Expands Multifamily Development Platform Into Texas With Senior Managing Director Matt Miller

3 min read

GID, a vertically-integrated real estate owner, operator, developer and investor with $32.8 billion in assets under management, announced July 16 the expansion of its GID Residential Partners national development platform into Texas, with industry veteran Matt Miller joining the firm as Senior Managing Director to lead the initiative.

The move formalizes GID's development presence in Texas under the GID Residential Partners banner, which the firm launched as a dedicated national multifamily development platform. GID said the Texas expansion reflects its continued focus on private market real estate strategies in markets where fundamentals — including population growth, employment trends and housing demand — have historically supported real estate investment activity.

Platform Growth and Texas Rationale

GID Residential Partners has established a pipeline of approximately 3,500 homes across Atlanta, Houston, Austin and Denver since its launch. The platform is currently expanding in the Mid-Atlantic, Florida and Georgia, with plans to move into key markets in the Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and West, according to the firm.

"GID believes that Texas has long been one of the most compelling markets for multifamily development in the country, and we are excited to formalize our presence there as we continue scaling GID Residential Partners," said Sean Caldwell, President of GID Residential Partners. "Matt's deep regional knowledge, development experience and familiarity of the local landscape make him ideally suited to lead our efforts and drive meaningful growth across the state."

John Gagnier, President of GID Development, echoed that assessment. "Texas is a natural fit for our residential platform, underpinned by strong population growth, robust job creation and sustained housing demand," Gagnier said. "Bringing on experienced leaders like Matt is central to our approach as we expand into these high-priority markets."

GID's vertically-integrated platform includes in-house development, design, construction and property management capabilities, which the firm said provides alignment with partners and consistency across projects.

Matt Miller's Background and Role

Miller brings more than seven years of real estate development experience in Texas and Oklahoma. His background spans regional strategy, land acquisitions, entitlements and project delivery, with a career encompassing 15 communities, 4,200 rental homes and $800 million in multifamily development.

Prior to joining GID Residential Partners, Miller served as VP of Development for Dallas–Fort Worth at Wood Partners and oversaw Quarterra's Texas operations.

"GID's vertically-integrated platform and clear vision for national growth made this an outstanding opportunity," Miller said. "I look forward to leveraging my experience across the Texas market to help build a strong pipeline and deliver high-quality communities that meet the region's growing demand for housing."

GID's Broader Development Track Record

GID has delivered projects including Waterline Square in New York, High Street in Atlanta, and Cirrus and Stratus in Seattle. As of March 31, 2026, the firm owns and/or manages $32.8 billion in assets under management across more than 57,000 apartment units and more than 28 million square feet of industrial and commercial space. The firm maintains corporate offices in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Dubai, New York, San Francisco and West Palm Beach.

GID Residential Partners continues to build on GID's vertically-integrated platform as the firm works to expand its visibility in the national multifamily market. The firm said it plans to continue adding leadership and entering key markets across multiple regions as the platform scales.
