The Triangle · NC
A publication about houses, run by someone licensed to sell them.
That order is the whole positioning. The reporting is the product. It is written to be useful whether or not you ever get in touch — and it is the reason the people who do get in touch already know what they want.
Placeholder image. FPOHow is any of this reported?
By going there. Every neighbourhood study on this site describes streets that have been walked, commutes that have been driven at the hour they actually happen, and covenants that have been read. Nothing is assembled from listing descriptions.
Where a page states a fact about a place — an era of construction, a road, a trail connection — it is something that can be checked, and the page says how to check it. Where a page states a number, it carries the source and the period it describes, or it does not appear.
Where something is not known, the page says so. There are empty tables on this site, and they will stay empty until the data behind them exists and has been checked. That is a deliberate cost: a table of plausible figures would make every real figure here less believable.
Corrections are made in place, and the Updated date at the top of each page moves when they are.
What this covers, precisely
A narrow beat, deliberately. The alternative is a site that is vaguely about real estate everywhere, which is useful to nobody.
- 01
Where
Cary, Raleigh, Apex, Morrisville — Wake County and Durham County, North Carolina. Not the whole state, not the whole metro.
- 02
Who for
Two groups: people already in a Triangle house who want the next one, and people moving here who need to work out which part of the region they are moving to.
- 03
The specialism
Sequencing a move-up purchase without moving twice, and listing a house so that it lands in the right search band the first week. Both are covered in the open on this site.
- 04
The evidence
Seller-side transactions are published with list price, sale price, days to contract and the date each was checked. See the results.
- 05
The licensed side
eXp Realty LLC, NC Licence 365605. The publication is independent of it, and pages that touch a transaction say so.
Working out a move?
The first conversation is usually about the shape of the problem rather than about houses. It is short, and it saves a lot of time later.
