Investment Overview

Marcus & Millichap is pleased to present Howell Court Apartments, an 11-building community located at 3032 Howell Court in Columbia, South Carolina. The property offers investors the opportunity to capitalize on Columbia’s strong demand for affordable, high-quality housing. Current ownership has invested $5,000–$6,000 per unit in renovations since 2023, including updated flooring, kitchen cabinets, countertops, appliances, bathroom vanities, and modern fixtures throughout. These upgrades enhance the community’s appeal and position it to capture higher rental rates in a supply-constrained market. Tenants are responsible for electricity and billed back for water at a flat rate, minimizing operating expenses. Columbia, the state capital and second-largest city, is home to over 144,000 residents and continues to attract new growth due to its affordability and central location in the Midlands. Major employers such as BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina, Prisma Health, and Fort Jackson provide economic stability and thousands of jobs, while the University of South Carolina contributes to a highly educated workforce of over 40,000 students. Residents of Howell Court benefit from proximity to key employment hubs, retail destinations, and recreational amenities, as well as excellent connectivity via I-26, I-20, and I-77 to the broader Columbia metropolitan area.
