Carruth graduated from the University of Georgia with a Business Degree with an emphasis in real estate. Windsong Properties is Carruth’s fourth company, but is his first company focused solely on the active adult market. Carruth, along with co-founder Steve Romeyn, started Windsong to meet a demand fueled by the baby boomers and the change in demographics.
