Carolina Holdings, Inc. (CHI), a company known for creating successful developments and relationships, was formed in 1986 and will celebrate its 22nd year of business in September. The Company's primary emphasis is to develop, lease, and manage investment-quality commercial and residential properties.

We offer our clients solid real estate development experience, efficient project and asset management, and effective marketing and leasing with hands-on responsiveness. The company maintains a team approach with its clients, architects, general contractors, legal counsel, lenders, and engineers. This type of approach helps distinguish Carolina Holdings as a valued leader that generates the best results for all parties involved in the process.

The long-standing relationships with clients, communities, and lenders have been developed over time from an understanding and ability to meet the needs of all parties and provide a solution that serves their interests -- today and tomorrow. Our extensive brokerage network, combined with our experience, ensures that we possess local market knowledge necessary to create successful strategic investments.  Consequently, CHI values and enjoys repetitive transactions.

Each development begins with an informative analysis of the proposed development and its viability. CHI conducts extensive market studies and prepares comprehensive packages in order to develop an effective assessment of the proposed site or project. For tenants, this involves furnishing them with extensive data on surrounding demographics, market dynamics and other vital information to help them decide quickly if the site is right for their needs.

The Company’s re-development and asset management clients include such major institutions as Protective Life Insurance Company, Wachovia, The Travelers Companies, Koll Management and MICCO Corporation. The Company has developed properties which include retail clients such as Sears, Belk, Borders Books & Music, McDonald's, TJ Maxx, Toys ‘R’ Us, BI-LO, OfficeMax, Cinemark, Circuit City, Pier 1 Imports, CVS Pharmacy, Staples, Goody's, Barnes & Noble, Applebee’s, Starbucks, Kirkland's, Blockbuster Video, Advance Auto, Merchant’s Tire, and BP Oil.
