CHARLOTTE, N.C. - ncarol.com -- South Carolina-based developer Taylor Davis of NHE knows the situation all too well, after spending more than 25 years of his career involved in developing and managing quality, affordable housing properties across the Carolinas. Need far outstrips supply.

Now, with the groundbreaking of Ovata at Reedy Creek in Charlotte, Davis is undertaking development of his third affordable community in North Carolina – this designed for seniors 55 years of age and better – to help address the soaring demand for quality affordable housing while faced with a significant undersupply in communities across the country.

"Throughout the Carolinas and across America, there is a startling deficit of high-quality, affordable housing for families, senior citizens and those of lesser means," says Davis, President & CEO of NHE, a South Carolina-based developer and property management organization. "Every American deserves the opportunity to live in a quality place where they can be happy, safe and host friends or family in. We want to continue to do our part with the development of Ovata at Reedy Creek."
