McKee Homes Expands Building Operation Into Raleigh Bedroom Communities

The Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill areas in NC have rated in numerous surveys as some of the best places to live in the United States. Money Magazine, Bloomberg, Business Week, and Kiplinger all have ranked the Triangle in the top ten of exceptional areas of the country in which to live. This tri-city area enjoys unemployment ratings well below the national average and a plethora of jobs, many of which are in the high-tech sector due to the proximity of the "Silicon Valley of the East" aka Research Triangle Park (RTP). Exceptional educational and health care opportunities abound, largely due to the influence of the universities in the area, and the region is home to the nation's hottest college basketball rivalries. Duke University, North Carolina State and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are all within 30 miles of each other. With this in mind, one of North Carolina's top general contracting firms, McKee Homes, recently announced the expansion of their building operation into the suburbs of the Raleigh area, specifically into the attractive bedroom communities of Knightdale and Fuquay-Varina.

According to statistics released by CNN Money, new homes sold at an annual rate of $417,000 in the month of March, a gain of 1.5 percent over February, but an 18.5 percent increase over March 2012. Recent months have seen several factors affecting the recovery in the housing market including a drop in unemployment rates, rising home prices and close to record-low mortgage rates. Additionally, fewer available foreclosures have helped encourage buyers to re-join the hunt for new housing.
