Skybrook is a fantastic community at the edge of Huntersville NC (just north of Charlotte).  It straddles the Mecklenburg and Cabarrus County lines in an area that was once farm/rural and is now a sea of subdivisions.  (In fact, the original owners of the land on which Skybrook sits were third generation dairy farmers.)This is the entrance to the neighborhood-lovely, isn't it?Skybrook has many opportunities currently-both for resale homes and townhomes and for new construction homes and townhomes.The townhome section of the neighborhood is built by Ryan Homes, with homes starting in the $280s (all come with a two-car garage and many 'upgraded' features are standards here).  About an eight month build time currently.The single family sections of Skybrook are in a wide price range.  You c... 02/24/2007

Price bands are not 'range pricing', as used so effectively by Broker Bryant.  Price bands are another way of gauging your inventory and absorption rates in different price breaks.Tonight I have been preparing a market analysis for a property in Huntersville NC (just north of Charlotte, on the south end of Lake Norman).  Pretty hot market overall, new construction is handled pretty tightly by the town since they don't want the town to become a sea of concrete.The property in question is scheduled to be completed next month.  My buyers need to sell it as soon as it's complete, since they have already been transferred back out of town.  The builder isn't going to let them out of the contract without a hefty penalty, and since the overall market is up since they contracted, we'll turn arou... 12/27/2006
