TDI, a Class A multifamily investment platform with approximately $3.7 billion of multifamily assets, is proud to announce the addition of Brent Ball as the President and Partner. Ball will lead efforts to maximize the value of TDI’s existing portfolio, expand focus on attainable housing geared for educators, first responders, and other essential workers, and provide third-party capital through preferred equity and tax-exempt bond investments. 

“We have a growing housing affordability crisis for moderate-income households that is perpetuating,” said Ball. “Our passion is to help serve this middle-income tier of families in all cities throughout Dallas-Fort Worth through the state approved Housing Finance Corporation (“HFC”) legislation. I appreciate that TDI has already exhibited their commitment toward this effort by structuring its developments in Anna, Fort Worth, and McKinney to serve such households.”

At Fairfield, he designed and directed the company’s national asset management division to support its development and acquisition/rehab business lines from point of underwriting through monetization on a portfolio of up to 65,000 units. Additionally, he led the company’s disposition activities, property management company, and condominium formation and sales platforms. 

Before joining Fairfield, Ball spent seven years at Archon Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, where he directed the acquisition, asset management, and asset repositioning of the multifamily business line in the Western and Southwestern United States.
