Raleigh Relocation Information Center - Moving To the Triangle?

Consumer confidence - in jobs, the economy, and their financial position - has risen dramatically in the past month, as overall conditions continue to improve. 

Confidence in real estate continues to grow too.  We believe it - the available inventory of ready-to-move-into new homes is the lowest we've seen it in years.

What are you seeing?

March Furniture Manufacturing offers Custom Upholstered Furniture

Choose from 70 Styles and Hundreds of Fabrics

March Furniture Manufacturing  is the latest partner in the "Stanton Homes for Heroes" program, offering discounts on its upholstered furniture collections to veterans and military personnel who buy a Stanton Home.

March is a North Carolina based producer of custom upholstery at mid-range prices.

March Furniture Manufacturing was founded in 1992 with 22 employees and has grown to a force of 250 employees.

The majority work in Ramseur NC at a 210,000 square foot facility.

March Furniture manufactures living room furniture including sofas (including sofa-beds and reclining sofas), chairs, loveseats, recliners, sectionals, and other upholstered pieces in a wide variety of sizes and configurations.

March Furniture sells primarily to furniture wholesalers and retailers.

The public can only buy direct from the company at the March Factory Store, which is located about a mile from the factory, on Highway 64 in Ramseur NC.

Customers can come to the store to see March Furniture's entire line of furniture, including hundreds of pieces in 70 different styles, with a choice of millions of combinations of designer fabrics that can be selected from fabric samples available at the store.

Customers can choose from hundreds of fabrics to create an upscale designer look to fit the color scheme and personality of any living room.

Custom orders are produced at the March Furniture Manufacturing factory using high quality materials and expert craftsmanship. 

Production consistently takes less than two weeks - an unusually fast turnaround time which is virtually unheard of in the furniture industry.

March Furniture also produces "All-in-a-Box" sets in eight different collections designed to coordinate with their upholstery groups.

These sets include a cocktail table, two end tables, two lamps, and a variety of coordinating accessories, such as vases, trays, bowls, picture frames, clocks, and other decorative items.

The sets were recently spotlighted in the furniture industry's premiere publication, Furniture Today.  

"March is excited to be joining the 'Stanton Homes for Heroes' program," said Brian Boyers, President of March Furniture. "It gives us another way to show our appreciation for the men and women who have been protecting our American freedom, doing difficult jobs that help guarantee our way of life."

Market Report - Chapel Hill New Homes

Chapel Hill/Carrboro New Home Listings DOWN 32%

Chapel Hill Offers Fewer New Homes

Looking for a new home in Chapel Hill?  Thinking the choices have gotten a little thinner?  You're right....

New Home inventory in Chapel Hill/Carrboro was down 32% in November 2009 versus November 2008.  Chapel Hill has long been one of the most coveted places to live in the Triangle area.

Chapel Hill new home inventory prices will also be affected by the recent increases in impact fees.  The impact fees for a home built in Chapel Hill or Carrboro school districts just increased to $7616.  And it will go up further, to $9,520, for any home beginning construction after Jan 1, 2011.   This is the highest impact fee by far for any location in the Triangle.

New Home Listings by Price Point Chapel Hill NC

There were fewer new home listings in Chapel Hill/Carrboro in nearly every price point.

• Under $300K Chapel Hill new home inventory showed only 4 homes available.
• $300-399K Chapel Hill new home inventory reduced from 13 homes to only 4 homes.
• $400-499K Chapel Hill new home inventory increased from 5 homes to 11 homes.
• $500-599K Chapel Hill new home inventory decreased from 11 homes to 6 homes. 
• Townhomes and condos are the most common kind of new construction in Chapel Hill. 

There are fewer "affordable" homes in Chapel Hill than in any other area.  Homebuyers who work in Chapel Hill often consider Chatham County, Hillsborough, or Durham for their new home. 

 Overall New Home Listings Chapel Hill November 2009

On December 1 2008, there were 181 new homes listed in Chapel Hill/Carrboro.

On December 1 2009, there were only 123 new homes listed in Chapel Hill/Carrboro.

Of those 123 new homes, 73, or 62%, were condos or townhomes.  This area has the highest percentage of townhomes and condos for available new homes.  Raleigh inside the beltline has the second highest at 54%, and Durham County has the third highest percentage, at 44%. 

Builders are building fewer "speculative" homes, and more home buyers are opting for completely custom packages, in every price point (which means the homes are not listed, but completed to the buyers exact specifications). 

What Price Points are getting the most showings Inside the Beltline?

If you're looking to purchase in these price points, you'll have more competition for your new home.

Which price points are most popular inside the beltline?

• Chapel Hill homes in the $1 million+ range saw the most showings in November 2009.
• Chapel Hill new homes in the $600-799K range saw the most showings PER HOME.
• Condos inside the beltline saw the least showings per home.

Fuquay-Varina - Triangle Area Relocation

Moving to Fuquay-Varina NC

Fuquay-Varina is a town just south of Raleigh, and is part of the Triangle Area in central North Carolina. The Triangle is consistently rated as one of the best places to live in the country by national media outlets such as Forbes, BusinessWeek, and MSNBC.

Once just a small town of a few thousand people with no real identity, Fuquay-Varina has grown in the past few years into a bustling area with several unique attractions.

So for people who are thinking about moving to the Triangle, here is a primer of five facts to get you interested about Fuquay-Varina.

1. How do you say Fuquay-Varina?

It's " 'fjuːkweɪ vəˈriːnə", or, in case you're in the majority of people who don't know what that says (like me), FYU-kway Va-REE-nah.

2. Where'd that name come from?

Fuquay-Varina was originally two towns. Fuquay was settled in the mid-1800s by William Fuquay around a mineral water spring. It was officially incorporated in 1909 as Fuquay Springs. Varina was founded in 1880 by a Civil War veteran and named after his wife, Varina. The two towns continued to grow side-by-side, mainly due to the tobacco trade, until their proximity virtually merged them together. They became one town, Fuquay-Varina, in 1963.

3. What was Fuquay-Varina most famous for?

The Fuquay area was most known for its mineral springs.  The most famous mineral spring was discovered by William Fuquay.  He believed it had healing powers, and built walls around it.  The water was eventually bottled and sold to local hotels, while many summer tourists came to stay at local hotels, see the spring and try the water.  The mineral spring was most famous in the early 1900s.

4. Why should I live in a small town?

Small towns, specifically suburbs of larger cities, give you the best of both worlds. You're just minutes away from major shopping centers, nightlife, and businesses that are the highlights of living in a city. In a city, however, you don't get the space, quiet, and sense of community that only comes with living in a small town.  

5. What makes Fuquay-Varina special?

Fuquay-Varina is part of the award-winning Wake County school system. It is minutes away from the Research Triangle Park, the premier technology center of the East Coast. Fuquay-Varina is half way between vacation spots at the coast, such as Bald Head Island and Myrtle Beach, and vacation spots in the Appalachian Mountains like ski resorts and Great Smokey Mountain National Park.
