What Investment & Development Ventures does

Investment & Development Ventures, LLC (IDV) is a Houston-based real estate investment and development firm focused on the acquisition, ground-up development, and long-term stewardship of industrial assets including warehouse, distribution, and manufacturing facilities. The firm's platform integrates site selection and feasibility, entitlement, capital structuring, construction oversight, leasing, and asset management across the full investment lifecycle, with projects on land sites ranging from five acres to over 500 acres. Since inception IDV has developed approximately 13 million square feet of industrial space, with an additional 4 million square feet currently under development, and leadership has helped capitalize more than $2 billion of real estate assets against a current pipeline exceeding $1.5 billion.

The firm pursues opportunities in high-growth Texas markets — primarily Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Waco — where demographic trends, infrastructure investment, and tenant demand support long-term industrial fundamentals. Its customer base consists of institutional capital partners, joint venture investors, and end-user industrial tenants served through a relationship-driven, enterprise-focused go-to-market motion. Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time gains on real estate development and disposition, recurring asset management fees on stabilized holdings, and professional services for development fees and construction oversight. Pricing is transaction-based and quote-driven, with no publicly disclosed fee schedule.

IDV is led by Co-Founders Timothy C. Harrington (CPA), D. Tyndall Yaap (SIOR, CCIM), and Jarrad E. Coulter (CCCA), supported by Principals, Directors of Development and Construction, a Director of Finance and Portfolio Management, and development coordinators. The firm operates as a privately-held LLC domiciled in Texas with no disclosed parent company or institutional investor backing, and maintains its headquarters in Millennium Tower in Houston.
