Greystar Sustainability Report 2024

UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

7

Our commitment to sustainable real estate management is reflected in our alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), with a particular focus on how our sustainability initiatives can increase positive impact and decrease negative impact on our surrounding environment and communities. In 2024, Greystar initiated a SDG mapping exercise that examined our value chain activities (e.g., design, construction, operation) to identify where we have the most potential to strengthen our properties’ positive impact. Working with external advisors, we strategically mapped our initiatives to our core sustainability focus areas and objectives. By leveraging our real estate expertise, market presence, and stakeholder relationships, we are positioning ourselves to directly contribute to specific SDGs, particularly SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). This targeted approach enables us to create meaningful, measurable impact that aligns with Greystar’s broader sustainability strategy while delivering tangible value for our stakeholders. Our 2024 progress across these priority SDGs is detailed in the table that follows on the next page.
