Highwoods Properties, Inc. is a Real Estate company. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). 4 insiders have disclosed 4 filings since 18 October 2025.

Insider buying of Highwoods Properties, Inc. has been absent for the past year. Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 2 days after the trade. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4.
In the same sector, recent insider purchases at Simon Property Group Inc /DE/ and Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc. also feature in our signals. Source: insider filings from SEC (Form 4). Past trades are no guide to future returns.

About Highwoods Properties, Inc.
Highwoods Properties, Inc. (NYSE: HIW) is a United States-listed real estate investment trust focused on office real estate. Headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, the company was founded in 1978 and went public in 1994. For French-speaking investors, Highwoods is best understood as a specialized office-REIT platform with exposure to premium office markets in the U.S. Sun Belt and Southeast. The company describes itself as a fully integrated operator, meaning it is involved across the value chain: ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, property management and related customer services. ([highwoods.com](https://www.highwoods.com/?utm_source=openai))
Highwoods’ core business centers on office properties located in what it calls the “best business districts” or BBDs. Its portfolio is concentrated in Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Nashville, Orlando, Raleigh, Richmond and Tampa, and the company also references Pittsburgh among its markets on its website. This geographic footprint matters because it gives Highwoods a focused presence in relatively resilient, growth-oriented submarkets where corporate demand, transport connectivity and long-term leasing liquidity can be stronger than in weaker office locations.

Strategically, Highwoods occupies a niche between large national REITs and smaller local landlords. Its competitive positioning is built on disciplined market selection, a long operating history in office real estate, and an emphasis on high-quality urban and suburban office assets. Rather than pursuing broad diversification, the company concentrates on office properties where it believes it can create value through tenant service, active asset management and selective development. That approach is consistent with its “work-placemaking” branding, which signals an emphasis on workplace experience, not just rentable square footage. ([highwoods.com](https://www.highwoods.com/?utm_source=openai))
Highwoods’ principal products and services include office leasing, property management, development, redevelopment and construction-related services. According to its 2024 annual report, the company owned or had an interest in 27.8 million rentable square feet of in-service properties, 1.6 million rentable square feet under development, and land with about 4.9 million square feet of potential office build-out. Those figures indicate a meaningful development pipeline and a sizeable operating platform for a REIT of its profile. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/921082/000092108225000014/hiwannualreport12312024.pdf?utm_source=openai))
Recent company news has been active. In 2025 and 2026, Highwoods announced acquisitions such as 6Hundred at Legacy Union in Charlotte and the Advance Auto Parts Tower in Raleigh, alongside a $250 million common share repurchase program and additional financing activity including bond issuance. These actions suggest a management team that is still allocating capital selectively despite a challenging office backdrop in the United States. For investors, that creates a mix of opportunity and risk: Highwoods can benefit from its focus on top-tier office districts, but it remains exposed to office-market fundamentals, capital-market conditions and tenant demand trends that continue to evolve.
