• Community uplift: Projects increase downtown residency and support Fayetteville’s broader revitalization initiatives.

RAJJ Investment Properties is a veteran-led real estate firm in Fayetteville, North Carolina focused on ground-up development and adaptive reuse that elevate underserved neighborhoods. Following the success of its fully leased Adam Street Apartments, the company will add a new quadraplex with family-sized units and create recreational space that encourages downtown living. Simultaneously, RAJJ plans to convert the adjacent American Eagle Inn from a dated motel into long-term affordable housing, transforming an underused asset into modern residences that meet demand from the city’s growing workforce and nearby military base.

Capital raised will refinance existing project debt, fund construction and renovation, and cover furnishings, marketing, and contingencies so both properties can open stabilized and cash-flowing on schedule. By expanding the supply of quality rentals and activating idle real estate, the firm aims to boost property values, support small-business growth, and strengthen community revitalization efforts while providing investors with steady income and a refinance-driven exit. RAJJ’s disciplined, hands-on approach and deep local ties seek to align attractive returns with measurable social impact.
