High Point, NC
High Point sits at the center of the Triad, known internationally as the Furniture Capital of the World and home to the High Point Market — the largest home furnishings trade show in the world. The city's manufacturing and logistics employment base creates consistent workforce housing demand that has historically supported stable multifamily occupancy.
High Point's multifamily market is anchored by its manufacturing and logistics workforce. The furniture industry — while smaller than its peak — still employs thousands of workers in manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution. High Point University, with its rapid enrollment growth and significant campus investment, has added a student and faculty housing component that is reshaping the university corridor.
The High Point market offers some of the most attractive acquisition pricing in the Triad. Assets in established neighborhoods near the university and the downtown corridor offer consistent occupancy from the city's stable workforce housing demand base. Value-add opportunities exist in older assets that have not been updated to match the expectations of the university's growing student and faculty population.
