Charleston, S.C.–based developer Greystar has announced plans to add more than 1,300 units to its portfolio in the Pacific Northwest, where housing is strained due in large part to the tech boom. The company is nearing completion of six new communities, three in Seattle and three in Silicon Valley, Calif.
