Real estate in Canton occupies an important role in both the city's economy and society. Since its inception as a railroad town, Canton has been known for its development potential – particularly with respect to real estate properties that are situated near major transportation corridors (such as I-85 and I-75). As such, real estate has long been considered to be one of the key drivers of growth within the city – particularly with respect to commercial properties (which are typically more expensive than residential properties) and multifamily housing developments (which are often favored by businesses seeking to locate near their employees).

Today, real estate remains an important part of Canton's economy – both with respect to traditional investments (such as single family homes) and more innovative forms of investment (such as rental apartments). In addition to serving as an important source of income for property owners/investors/developers/sellers/brokers/etc., real estate also plays an important role in shaping community dynamics – particularly with respect to how residents interact with each other (and with regard to how they use their property rights). Accordingly, it should come no surprise that real estate remains one of the most popular investment vehicles within Canton – both among individual investors/property owners/developers/sellers/brokers/etc., as well as among institutional investors / financial institutions / hedge funds / etc..
