Capital Square Achieves Ninth Consecutive Year on Inc. 5000 List, Highlighting Sustained Growth in Real Estate Sector

Capital Square has secured its position on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies for the ninth consecutive year, underscoring the firm's consistent expansion in the competitive real estate investment sector. With a three-year growth rate of 54%, the company ranked No. 4,918 nationally, 271 in Virginia, and 118 in the real estate category, reflecting its strategic focus on tax-advantaged investments and development projects.

Louis Rogers, founder and co-chief executive officer, attributed the sustained recognition to Capital Square's three-pillar approach: "Capital Square is built on three pillars: Invest – the firm invests in tax-advantaged real estate. Build – we develop real estate in opportunity zones and elsewhere. Manage – we manage the firm's assets. Each of these pillars contributes to the overall growth and success of the firm." This integrated model has enabled the company to navigate market fluctuations while maintaining growth momentum since its founding in 2012.

The significance of this achievement extends beyond corporate recognition, highlighting Capital Square's evolving role in the real estate landscape. Whitson Huffman, co-chief executive officer and chief investment officer, emphasized the broader implications: "It is a testament to the talent and dedication of the Capital Square team that we have earned a place on the Inc. 5000 list for nine consecutive years. Ranking among the top real estate firms nationally and as one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S. highlights Capital Square's strong position in a highly competitive industry."

Capital Square's expansion strategy includes significant development initiatives, particularly in qualified opportunity zones. The company launched its development arm in 2019, which has delivered 979 mixed-use apartment units and is currently building or planning 1,020 additional units. Notable projects include Otis, recognized as CoStar's 2024 Multifamily Development of the Year, and Maeve, recipient of ENR Texas & Southeast's 2025 Award of Merit in Residential/Hospitality. These achievements position Capital Square as one of the nation's most active sponsors of qualified opportunity zone funds, contributing to urban revitalization efforts while generating investor returns.

The firm's vertical integration strategy further strengthened with the 2023 launch of Capital Square Living, a wholly owned subsidiary managing over 40 apartment communities across the Southeast. This division's rapid ascent was recognized by Multi-Housing News' Top Multifamily Property Management Companies of 2024, ranking No. 71 nationwide in only its second year of operation. The company's comprehensive service approach was further validated in January 2024 when Capital Square earned the prestigious AMO® accreditation from IREM®, joining an exclusive group of real estate management companies worldwide.

Capital Square's track record includes sponsoring more than 140 investment offerings and acquiring more than 175 real estate assets, with investor distributions exceeding $543 million since 2012. The company's continued growth and industry recognition signal stability and innovation in the real estate investment sector, providing confidence to investors seeking tax-advantaged opportunities through vehicles like Delaware statutory trusts for Section 1031 exchanges and qualified opportunity zone funds.
