The University of Alabama at Birmingham is responsible for over 23,000 jobs in the region. The area is also world headquarters for Regions Financial, the second largest employer in the Birmingham metropolitan region. Other major employers in the region include AT&T, Honda, St. Vincent’s Health System, Children’s Hospital of Alabama, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Alabama Power Co., and Mercedes-Benz.

“We are enthusiastic about the acquisition of Emerald Pointe,” said Albert Lord III, Founder and CEO of Lexerd. “Birmingham is a growing market and central to the nation’s fastest growing auto manufacturing region. Emerald Pointe is well-located with easy access to Hoover Public Library, various shopping and medical offices, neighborhood schools, and restaurants.”

Lord continued, “We thoroughly understand the needs of the Birmingham market and the growing demand in the region. Emerald Pointe will serve the community in a meaningful way and be a valuable addition to Lexerd’s portfolio, helping us to serve our mission of achieving strong risk adjusted returns for our investors.”
