Build to Rent in the Carolinas
Build-To-Rent Home Construction in Charlotte and Raleigh, NC for Developers & Investors
Developing a successful Build-To-Rent community requires an expert team; from managing the budget, to finishing property construction on time and supporting the sales and leasing teams. It’s even more challenging when residential contractors are difficult to work with. Our solid reputation in the community means Charlotte and Raleigh-area Build-to-Rent developers trust Copper Builders with their Build-To-Rent projects.

On Budget

Adding Value Without Cost
Copper Builders specializes in projects that look beautiful and command top dollar without additional costs. Our extensive review of plans and specifications will eliminate costly re-work and waste before a hammer is even swung. With proper planning we will make your project better overall.
Accurate Pricing
Build-To-Rent projects live and die by the numbers. We use a Fixed Pricing system, where we agree on the exact price of your project before we build it. We believe in Fixed Pricing because it’s fair, accurate, and it holds us accountable. Our consulting services provide a high-level estimate to help underwrite the project early and give confidence in proceeding forward.
Making Building Easy
We streamline the process with our proactive approach. Our internal processes and systems like CoConstruct provide fast, efficient responses from our team. Budgets, schedules and selections are organized in our cloud software, making it easy to track your project from anywhere in the world.
We have built some of Charlotte and Raleigh's most notable projects.
