The market has slowed a bit, but has not seen the decreased values that are common in some other areas of the country. Hillsborough is a small, quaint, southern town, and homes within walking distance to downtown tend to sell for a higher dollar per square foot. Many are older, smaller and in the Historic District.&#13;
Surrounding downtown, are rural areas. Homes were selling close to the 97-100% of the asking price during the spring market. That list to sales ratio has dropped a bit, but homes are still increasing in value. This likely makes it one of the better times to buy in our area.</description><pubDate>Sun, 20 Jan 2008 17:42:15 -0800</pubDate></item><item><title>Answer by Stanton Homes</title><link>http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Home_Seller-Raleigh_NC-108548/</link><guid>http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Home_Seller-Raleigh_NC-108548/</guid><description>Hillsborough is a very pretty, desirable area for homeowners commuting to Durham.   Only 14 miles west of Durham, Hillsborough is accessible by a straight shot on I-85, which makes it very easy to get to.   The downtown area has a terrific reputation for shops and original homes and streets.  &#13;
&#13;
If you look at homes sold recently in the area, you'll see that the price per square foot can be quite high - as everything else, it depends on the neighborhood, area, age of home, and many other factors.   There are new homes in the mid to upper $200s, all the way up to some in the 1.5mil range.</description><pubDate>Thu, 10 Jan 2008 02:53:18 -0800</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
