CP Group announced that Christopher “Tex” Cauthen has joined the firm as Senior Vice President. He will be based in Dallas and lead CP Group’s acquisitions, developments and operations in key Southwest markets, including Texas, Colorado and Arizona.

Cauthen brings over two decades of leadership and industry expertise to the organization, with a proven track record in acquisitions, asset management, capital markets and development.

As CP Group grows and diversifies its portfolio, Cauthen’s role as Senior Vice President and market lead will play an integral role in expanding the firm’s footprint throughout the Southwest region. He will also oversee Granite Tower, a 600,000-square-foot, 31-floor office building that marked CP Group’s entry into the Denver market in 2021. 

Cauthen joins CP Group from Harwood International in Dallas, where he served as Vice President of Acquisitions and Capital Markets. During his tenure there, he closed $900 million in transactions and oversaw a portfolio of more than two million square feet of existing Class AA office space as well as a four-million-square-foot development pipeline. Previously, Cauthen also served as Executive Director and National Office Practices Leader at Cushman & Wakefield, leading strategic initiatives, transactional activities and production efforts.
