CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Executing on an expansion strategy, JAG Management Company, an affiliate of Jefferson Apartment Group (JAG), is pleased to announce it has expanded its property management portfolio with the addition of nearly 1,400 units in North Carolina.
JAG has assumed management of J501 Estates, a 240-unit community in Durham central to both Duke University and University of North Carolina. The community was a JAG acquisition – its first in North Carolina – in a deal with partner STARS REI that closed in late 2023.
JAG has also assumed third-party management of four other established multifamily communities across the Raleigh-Durham area, bringing JAG Management Company’s total portfolio to nearly 11,000 units up and down the East Coast.
“As JAG grows its multifamily development and ownership in the Carolinas, expanding our property management portfolio in the region is also a strategic focus,” said Patty Holt, President of JAG Management Company. “We have a strong foothold and look forward to further growing our presence across the Carolinas.”
JAG Management Company will add another 350 units to its Carolinas portfolio later this year with the delivery of JAG’s first new development in the region, J Optimist Park, a Class A mid-rise located in the Mill District of Charlotte close to both the Uptown central business district and the NoDa arts district.
To support its growing operations in North Carolina, JAG Management Company hired a new regional manager. Valeri Smiddy, a 20-year property management professional with deep ties in the region, leads JAG Management’s Carolinas portfolio.
