Huntley Knoll Rental Community in Pelham Is Fully Leased

Lease-up comes as Birmingham-area multifamily market adjusts to increased supply

Tower Homes announces that Huntley Knoll, its newest rental home community in Pelham, Alabama, is now 100 percent leased. The milestone reflects continued demand for well-designed rental homes in the right locations, even as the Birmingham-area multifamily market adjusts to an influx of new supply.

Huntley Knoll is part of a growing housing category commonly known as Build-to-Rent, which refers to neighborhoods of newly built, single-family homes designed specifically for renting. At Huntley Knoll, residents enjoy private entrances, no shared walls, fenced backyards, and a true neighborhood setting. Leasing and day-to-day management of the community are handled by Fairin.

The 42-home Huntley Knoll community is located near Huntley Park, a 37-home rental neighborhood also developed by Tower Homes. Despite the addition of new rental homes to the immediate area, Huntley Park remains fully occupied, reinforcing the strength of renter demand in Pelham for this type of community.

Over the past 18 months, the Birmingham metropolitan area has seen a significant increase in traditional apartment supply, which has softened occupancy across much of the multifamily sector. Against that backdrop, the lease-up of Huntley Knoll highlights the appeal of premium rental homes that offer more space, privacy, and a neighborhood feel.

“Leasing up Huntley Knoll while maintaining full occupancy at Huntley Park shows that Pelham continues to resonate with renters who want something different from a conventional apartment,” said Clint Johnston, President of Tower Homes. “Many renters today value the space and privacy of a single-family home, along with the flexibility of renting and the support of a professional management team.”

The Huntley communities are within walking distance of Publix and offer immediate access to major transportation corridors, creating a lifestyle that blends suburban comfort with everyday convenience. This location and design approach appeals to a wide range of residents, including young professionals, right-sizing households, and families.

The success of Huntley Knoll is part of Tower Homes’ broader expansion in the Pelham area. In addition to its rental communities, the company is currently selling new construction homes at Huntley Ridge and has announced plans for Silver Ridge, a future community along Highway 11 that will include a mix of rental and for-sale homes.

Easy Ways to Refresh Your Home for Spring

By Lease Fairin • February 17, 2026

Even though winter is still lingering, February is the perfect time to begin preparing your home for the fresh energy of spring. Before schedules fill up and warmer days arrive, a simple refresh can make your space feel lighter, brighter, and ready to welcome the season ahead. It doesn’t take much to create a meaningful reset in an already well-designed home. Just a few intentional updates can make all the difference. Start with a Simple Reset Before adding anything new, simplify. Clear surfaces and countertops of clutter to instantly open up the space. Edit and reorganize storage areas. Take it a step further and donate any items you no longer use. A clean foundation instantly elevates your home and makes every room feel more expansive. Lighten Up Textures & Layers As temperatures begin to shift, so should your layers. Swap heavier throws for lighter knits or cotton. Change pillow covers to soft neutrals or subtle pastels to reflect the season. Replace darker florals with airy arrangements, and open the blinds daily to maximize natural light for an instant mood boost. The right ambiance makes all the difference. Bring the Outdoors In One of the best parts of leasing with Fairin is the seamless connection to outdoor space. Add potted greenery to your front porch or create a simple outdoor seating moment in your private backyard. Indoors, introduce fresh-cut flowers to your kitchen countertop or entry table. Even small touches of greenery can completely transform the feel of a room. Elevate Everyday Spaces Spring is a great time to refresh the spaces you use most. Update bathroom towels for a crisp, spa-like feel. Restyle your coffee table with fewer, thoughtfully curated pieces. Organize closets to prepare for seasonal transitions and store away winter coats and sweaters. Subtle updates go a long way. A Fresh Season Starts at Home Spring is about renewal, and your home should refle ct that. With spacious layouts, private outdoor areas, and elevated finishes, refreshing your home for the season is simple and satisfying. Looking for a fresh start this spring?
