Get to know our world
Universal Living is the residential property management subsidiary of Universal Development & Construction (UDC), a vertically integrated multifamily developer, contractor, and manager of apartment home communities. Since our inception in 1998, we’ve been dedicated to crafting exceptional living spaces across Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. With more than 5,000 multifamily homes constructed and more than 1,500 currently in the pipeline, our commitment to quality and resident satisfaction has never wavered. We believe how a property is maintained is just as important as how it’s built, which is why we approach property management with the same high standards that define our construction process.
Universal Living Joins our universe
Universal Living was established with a clear mission to ensure our properties are managed with the same level of care and attention to detail that shaped their development. We are committed to offering premium amenities, such as resort-style pools, modern fitness centers, and beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces, as a bonus to spacious and beautifully designed homes. Our philosophy is simple: you should be able to pay less and still get more, “ Living Redefined.” It is not just a slogan; it’s our foundation of creating communities that are functional, stylish, and affordable, ensuring you enjoy a lifestyle that truly exceeds expectations, all while staying within your budget.
value: exceptional living experience
Adding value goes beyond just a place to live; it’s about creating a community where comfort, quality, and convenience come together seamlessly. It’s about satisfaction and putting a smile on your face. At Universal Living, we’re committed to creating communities that embody value, a sense of belonging, and that smile. When you step into your home, you experience comfort at every turn with thoughtfully and spaciously designed living spaces, stylish furnishings, luxury amenities, and genuine hospitality. With Universal Living— Living Redefined is more than a promise; it’s our way of life.
Quality matters
Our approach to quality is simple: every detail matters from, function to beauty. We design our spacious living spaces with high- efficiency heat pumps, Energy-Star-rated appliances, upgraded LVT flooring, along with the aesthetic touches like stainless-steel kitchen appliances, brushed nickel fixtures, and premium finishes. Our homes are designed with you in mind. We believe better living spaces should be accessible to everyone, which is why we focus on delivering distinctive touches and thoughtful designs without compromising affordability.
convenience: make your life easier
Convenience is at the heart of our communities. Your time is valuable, and we’ve designed our apartments and townhomes to simplify your life. Our onsite maintenance and dedicated property management teams ensure everything in your home runs smoothly, allowing you to focus on enjoying life. You will experience the ease of everyday living with convenient features like parking at your front door for easy access, having a private garage in select units, and the highly desirable benefit of in-unit washer and dryer hookups. Along with our prime locations of quick access to shopping, dining, and working, it makes it effortless to connect to your community. With Universal Living, your home becomes more than just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive.
