Griffis Residential Opens Fund VII to Follow $525M Fund VI
Denver-based Griffis Residential has launched its seventh multifamily investment fund, building on a 40-plus-year operating history.
Griffis Residential, a vertically integrated multifamily real estate investment manager headquartered in Denver, announced the first close of its Griffis Premium Apartment Fund VII on Oct. 9, 2026, marking the next chapter in a fund series that spans more than four decades of investment and operating activity.
Fund VII follows its predecessor, Griffis Premium Apartment Fund VI, which raised approximately $525 million. The launch signals continued institutional appetite for professionally managed multifamily assets even as the broader commercial real estate market navigates elevated interest rates and shifting capital flows.

Multifamily has remained among the more resilient commercial real estate sectors, supported by persistent housing demand and constrained for-sale inventory in many U.S. markets.
