the trail more deeply into the community, creating a seamless connection between new developments and existing neighborhoods. STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS AND LONG-TERM VISION Kings Mountain’s appeal to investors lies not only in its strategic location but also in its forwardthinking approach to development. With its proximity to Charlotte and substantial investments in infrastructure, the city is an attractive hub for residential and commercial projects. Phil Dee, Managing Partner at True Spec Global LLC, discusses what initially drew his company to Kings Mountain. “What brought us to Kings Mountain initially was the proximity to Charlotte. Fifteen years ago, we started investing in various projects here,” he explains. One such project is a residential development on the north side of town, focusing on easy access to the 74 bypass.“It’ll be 140 homes in the $450,000 to $600,000 range, aimed at the commuter market from Charlotte.” Dee emphasizes the strategic nature of their investments, including land banking for future commercial development. “We’ve assembled a 20-acre parcel on US 74 for a future grocery store commercial site. Once we have the rooftops, we can develop that.” The influx of new residents, spurred by other developments in the area, will eventually support this commercial growth. The city’s substantial investment in infrastructure is another key factor in its attractiveness to developers. “That’s why we can build here,” Dee emphasizes. Combined with quality-of-life factors like proximity to parks and Moss Lake and easy access to Charlotte Airport, Kings Mountain offers a compelling package for investors and residents alike.
