Hey there Triangle residents! Ever wondered what your favorite Carolina Hurricanes players do after they hang up their skates? Well, for Tim Brent, a former center who played for the Canes from 2011 to 2013, the answer is real estate development!

From Slapshots to Speculative Development

That’s right, Brent recently launched his own development company called Longleaf Industrial, headquartered right here in Raleigh. Leveraging his business acumen and passion for the industry, Brent is focusing on the Triangle’s dynamic industrial real estate market.

Building a Legacy Beyond the Rink

Longleaf Industrial aims to identify strategic locations and construct high-quality industrial buildings. These projects have the potential to create jobs, bolster the tax base, and contribute to the overall economic growth of the region. Brent’s experience at Oppidan Investment Company, where he spearheaded major projects like the Wendell Commerce Center, positions him well to make a significant impact.

Adapting to the Market

While the Triangle’s industrial market is experiencing a slight cooling period, Brent remains optimistic. Longleaf Industrial’s commitment to “delivering best-in-class industrial projects” ensures they’ll be well-positioned to attract tenants and contribute to the market’s continued growth.

Looking Ahead: A Promising Future for Longleaf Industrial

The launch of Longleaf Industrial is a positive development for the Triangle’s real estate scene. With Brent’s strong background and Longleaf’s focus on quality, this new venture has the potential to be a major player in the industrial development landscape. We’ll be following Longleaf Industrial’s progress closely, so stay tuned for updates!
