Wallick Celebrates Grand Opening of Oak View, First Project in North Carolina
On Tuesday, October 29, Wallick celebrated the Grand Opening of Oak View, our first project in North Carolina.
As the developer and owner of this new $14 million community, we’re thrilled to contribute to new beginnings and much-needed affordable housing in Siler City and the Triangle area, in collaboration with Partnership Property Management, who serves as the community’s manager.
