Highwoods Properties, Inc. is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on office properties. The company's strategy includes owning, developing, acquiring, leasing, and managing properties primarily within what it defines as the "best business districts (BBDs)". Its portfolio is concentrated in the major cities of Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Nashville, Orlando, Raleigh, Richmond, and Tampa.
Highwoods Properties continues to execute a capital rotation strategy focused on shedding non-core, older vintage properties to fund expansion into high-growth Sunbelt markets and return capital to shareholders. The company is currently targeting a leverage-neutral capital rotation plan, aiming to sell between $190 million and $210 million of assets by mid-year 2026 to finance recent acquisitions. Highwoods is also actively repurchasing its own stock through a newly authorized share repurchase program. The company continues to operate under the strategic shift initiated by its large 2022 entry into the Dallas market, a historical transaction that transitioned its portfolio away from purely legacy development and toward higher-quality properties located in Best Business Districts (BBDs).
