Why multifamily & mixed-use works the way it does in Highlands
About Highlands, NC. Highlands is a small Macon County town sitting at over 4,100 feet of elevation, the highest incorporated town east of the Mississippi and the centerpiece of the Highlands-Cashiers luxury mountain market. The year-round population is small, but the seasonal population multiplies several times over with second-home owners from Atlanta, Birmingham, and Florida.
What it means for multifamily & mixed-use. Macon County permitting and the Town of Highlands both apply depending on parcel, and the town's own watershed and steep-slope rules carry weight on hillside parcels above town. Construction season is genuinely short, and getting concrete, drywall, and finish materials up the mountain in winter is an operational consideration the budget needs to absorb. Common work is high-end custom retreats in clubs like Highlands Country Club and Cullasaja, deep luxury remodels of older mountain homes, and stone-and-timber outdoor-living additions.

Our Process
How We Approach
Multifamily & Mixed-Use
Stakeholder Alignment & Pro Forma
Multifamily is a multi-party sport — owner, equity, lender, architect, civil engineer, eventual property manager. We align scope, schedule, and budget against the pro forma so units lease on the date debt service starts.
Site Work, Vertical Build & Trade Coordination
Heavy civil, foundations, vertical framing, and the dance of MEP across hundreds of repetitive units. We sequence trades to keep critical path tight — ground broken to vertical complete, vertical to drywall, drywall to TCO.
Phased Delivery & Lease-Up Hand-Off
Buildings handed over in phases so leasing can start before the last unit is finished. Property management gets a clean punch list, certified building systems, and unit-by-unit deficiency reports. The first lease signing is on the calendar we promised.
