History
Songy Highroads
Songy Highroads, LLC (‘SHR’) Principals David B. Songy, Perry M. Waughtal, and Todd W. Nocerini formed their first company in 1992. The Principal's original business plan was to acquire office buildings at prices well below replacement cost – an opportunity that occurred after the overbuilding of the 1980s.
The firm quickly expanded with projects throughout the Southeast, relocating its headquarters to Atlanta in 1998, and has recently aggregated a sizeable and diversified apartment portfolio.
The entrepreneurial spirit of SHR has enabled the company to recognize and seize urban-infill opportunities, primarily in the office and hotel markets. Each project is typically capitalized through a combination of equity provided by SHR and that of a selected institutional or family office partner.
The premise of SHR’s business model has been to acquire income properties in select markets that require extensive renovation. Once renovation is completed and peak operating levels are reached, SHR repositions these properties for refinancing or sale. We also develop ground-up office buildings, hotels and apartments on high profile sites in select markets.
Since inception, SHR has acquired and/or developed more than 5 million square feet and has over $2 billion in 50+ investments completed or underway.
