Recent Acquisitions
Properties We’ve Acquired
Real deals. Real problems solved. Here’s how we’ve helped commercial property owners move forward.
Commercial Land — 10 acres
NC – Along I-85
Vacant commercial parcel
The seller of this 10 acre parcel off I-85 wanted a quick closing without rezoning or entitlements. We were able to give them a cash offer based on the existing agriculture land value and close in a few weeks. The seller had sold off a portion of the land to another developer years ago and had no interest in developing it or waiting for it to be rezoned or entitled. We purchased as-is, updated entitlements, and moved forward with our development plan.
Industrial Land — 5.8 acres
Acquired Q3 2025
Industrial-zoned land
6 acres of industrial-zoned land in the Charlotte metro. The partnership that owned it had been trying to sell for two years through a broker with no success. We closed in 45 days with no financing contingency.
Infill Commercial Land — 6 acres
Infill development site
6-acre infill parcel in South Carolina zoned for commercial use. We completed Phase I due diligence, confirmed no issues, and closed on schedule. The seller avoided months of re-listing uncertainty.
General Business Vacant Land — 10 Acres
Vacant commercial land
We purchased this 10 acre site that was listed with a broker. We completed a survey and our entitlement work and we closed on time and as promised

Rock Hill Market
Rock Hill Commercial Land Market
Rock Hill’s commercial land market is energized by I-77 corridor development and South Anderson Road redevelopment initiatives. Commercial land averages $98,149 per acre (37 properties, average listing $1.17M). The I-77 corridor from Anderson Road northward is the focus of the South Carolina Commerce Corridor Study, with specific recommendations for manufacturing and industrial land development. Rock Hill’s proximity to Charlotte creates strong logistics demand.
The I-77 corridor and South Anderson Road represent primary IOS opportunities in Rock Hill. Companies seeking Charlotte-adjacent distribution and storage are finding value in Rock Hill’s lower land costs. York Technical College’s campus anchors the South Anderson corridor as an employment and logistics hub.
Rock Hill’s Comprehensive Plan (Rock Hill 2030) specifically identifies South Anderson Road as a redevelopment corridor for business and industrial parks. The South Carolina Commerce Corridor Study recommends incentives for manufacturing location in the I-77 corridor.
I-77 provides direct connectivity to Charlotte (25 minutes). The South Anderson Road and I-77 corridors are the focus of infrastructure and economic development planning. York Technical College campus adds employment and logistics demand.

Demand is driven by population growth, infrastructure investment, and expanding commercial development. Construction costs surging 40-60% since 2019 have made entitled land increasingly valuable as developers seek shovel-ready sites.
Key Submarkets
1
I-77 Corridor / Dave Lyle Blvd
The I-77 and Dave Lyle Boulevard interchange is Rock Hill’s primary commercial corridor, with Knowledge Park, Galleria Mall, and national retailers driving traffic. Commercial land near the interstate benefits from Charlotte commuter traffic and growing local employment centers. Available pad sites with frontage and access are increasingly limited.
2
Downtown Rock Hill / Knowledge Park
The Cherry Road corridor near Winthrop University benefits from steady student and institutional demand. Commercial land along this thoroughfare serves a mix of retail, restaurant, and service users. The university’s ongoing campus investment and downtown Rock Hill revitalization are supporting commercial land values in the immediate area.
3
Tega Cay / Fort Mill
Downtown Rock Hill’s Riverwalk development along the Catawba River has transformed the city center into a mixed-use destination. Commercial land near the amphitheater, sports complex, and restaurant district benefits from public infrastructure investment. The ongoing masterplan buildout is creating new demand for adjacent development parcels.
4
Lake Wylie / Riverwalk
Fort Mill’s proximity to Charlotte and top-rated school district have driven extraordinary residential growth, pulling commercial development south along US-21 and I-77. Commercial land in Tega Cay and along the Gold Hill Road corridor attracts national retailers, restaurant groups, and medical tenants following affluent demographics.
5
Cherry Road / Celanese
The Catawba Ridge and Lake Wylie area west of I-77 is experiencing rapid residential development, creating demand for new commercial services. Land along the SC-274 and SC-5 corridors is appreciating as developers plan grocery-anchored retail centers and medical facilities. This submarket offers the most growth runway in the Rock Hill Metro.
Market Timing
When to Sell Commercial Land in Rock Hill
Several market dynamics make this an optimal window for Rock Hill commercial land owners considering a sale.
Compressed Cap Rates
Institutional capital from REITs, pension funds, and large operators has driven down cap rates in the Charlotte Metro. For small and mid-sized owners, listing on the open market means competing against institutional-grade assets and waiting months. A direct sale to Roth Capital bypasses the institutional bidding process entirely.
Construction Pipeline Pressure
A significant pipeline of new industrial and warehouse space is underway across the Charlotte Metro. For owners of Class B or secondary properties, this creates urgency — more new supply means your existing asset must compete harder. Positioning your property now, before more new inventory delivers, can mean a stronger valuation.
Tech Tenant Volatility
Many tech tenants signed long-term leases during the pandemic boom. As those leases mature in 2025-2027, some tenants are consolidating, relocating, or negotiating harder. If you have tech-sector tenants approaching rollover, a direct buyer can better manage the risk of lease expiration and tenant turnover.
Replacement Cost Thesis
Rising interest rates have made new construction significantly more expensive. Land and construction costs in Rock Hill continue to climb. For owners of well-maintained properties, this creates a favorable backdrop — your asset may trade at or near what it would cost to rebuild. That window narrows as more supply eventually delivers.
Strong Absorption Metrics
Rock Hill’s retail vacancy sits at 2.4% — the tightest of any major NC metro. Industrial absorption reached 368,000 SF in Q4 2025 alone. These fundamentals signal that well-located assets are commanding top-of-market rents and leasing quickly. Sellers who move now benefit from this cycle’s strength.
Why Direct Sale Wins in Rock Hill
Broker-listed deals in the Charlotte Metro can linger 6-12 months while competing against newly constructed Class A assets and institutional-grade buildings. A direct sale to Roth Capital removes that friction. We make a firm offer based on our understanding of your market. We close in weeks, not months. No commissions.

Life Changes
Selling Because Something Changed? You’re Not Alone.
Most owners don’t sell because they want to. They sell because the property or the situation around it changed. If any of the scenarios below sound familiar, a direct, as-is sale may be the fastest path to certainty.

Or call/text 704-600-3839
Common scenario
Tired of Managing It
Commercial properties can drift when management, maintenance, or collections slip–even if the location is solid. If you’re dealing with constant tenant issues, selling can be the reset.
Common scenario
Tenant Leaving or Lease Rollover
With pandemic-era tech leases maturing across the Charlotte Metro in 2025-2027, rollover risk is real. Selling while income is still in place commands stronger pricing than carrying vacancy through a re-leasing cycle — especially if tenant improvements are needed.
Common scenario
Vacancy or Deferred Maintenance
Rock Hill’s new construction pipeline means tenants have options. If your building needs repairs, capex, or a lease-up plan to compete, that investment may not pencil. We buy as-is–vacant, partially occupied, or with deferred maintenance–so you can exit without funding improvements.
Common scenario
1031 Exchange Timing
When you’re up against exchange deadlines, certainty matters more than “testing the market.” We can move quickly and coordinate with your qualified intermediary to keep timing tight (confirm with your tax advisor).
Common scenario
Partnership Disagreement
When partners disagree on hold vs. sell, reinvest vs. cash out, the property stalls. In a market moving as fast as Rock Hill, indecision costs money. A direct sale converts an illiquid asset into clear proceeds and lets everyone move forward.
Common scenario
Estate or Inherited Land
Inherited properties often come with unclear records, deferred maintenance, or multiple decision makers who may not be local to Rock Hill. We keep the process simple and coordinate with attorneys and executors for a clean closing.
Common scenario
Quiet, Off-Market Exit
In a market like the Charlotte Metro where competitors, tenants, and employees monitor listings closely, some owners value privacy. If you want a discreet sale with clear terms and no public listing, a direct acquisition is the simplest path.
Common scenario
Loan Maturity or Refinance Pressure
If your note is coming due, today’s rate environment can change the refinance math quickly–DSCR, reserves, lender requirements. Selling before a maturity deadline protects value and avoids last-minute concessions to lenders.
Why Roth Capital
My wife and I built this business hands-on, starting with over 120 renovations across the Carolinas over six years. We have personally acquired 119 properties and completed 200+ total transactions since 2019.
When you sell to Roth Capital, you are dealing directly with me. No analysts, no committee, no layers of approval. I evaluate every deal, make every offer, and show up at every closing.

We buy IOS properties with or without buildings, paved or unpaved, improved or raw.

If your commercial land is sitting empty, we can make a cash offer based on the property’s repositioning potential.

Absolutely. We purchase commercial land as-is — deferred maintenance, needed capital improvements, or operational issues are all things we underwrite and handle. You do not need to make repairs or improvements before selling. We have acquired properties with significant deferred maintenance across the York County and handle all repositioning post-closing.
How fast can you close on a commercial land in Rock Hill?
We typically close in 30-60 days from signed LOI. Because we are a direct buyer with capital in-house, there is no waiting for bank underwriting, investor approval, or SBA loan committees. If you need a faster or slower timeline, we can accommodate that too — we have closed in as few as 21 days when the situation required it.

Yes. We acquire industrial-zoned parcels, commercial pad sites, entitled development land, and raw commercial land across Rock Hill and the York County. Whether your land is entitled, zoned, or has development potential, we can evaluate and make an offer.

We are value-add focused, meaning we typically look for properties with operational upside or minor repositioning opportunities.
