Hi Jane,
I have worked with many families relocating to this area. I have lived in the Cary/ Raleigh area for over 30 years, and very familiar with the area. I have had buyers that did not see the home they were purchasing personally due to timing, and moved into their home after they purchased it. I took pictures and collected information and sent it to them.
Go to www.livingincary.com to get all the information you need about purchasing a home (there is no obligation in using this service or my website).
You can sign up for a listing alert by putting your criteria and receiving emails of listings that match your criteria. If you need demographic information about a neighborhood or want to compare two zip codes, make sure you sign up for "Market Insider". I could also set up the listing alert for you once I know your criteria. Feel free to contact me for more information. Email: azitaw@livingincary.com

You've gotten some good answers, but I'd like to add that this is where the need for a good agent comes in. They will be able to search the MLS using filters, as well as touring possible homes to make sure they fit your needs, saving you time and frustration.... more
I would suggest getting an FHA loan. That way you can purchase the home outright and still get a great interest rate. Also, you may look into a HUD home. Some HUD homes only require $100 down.
Good luck.

I have been in the Meritage homes in Holly Springs and they are beautifully built and have many great details like cabinet built ins, granite island with seating in the kitchen, and trey ceilings. Really, these homes are nice and a great value.

The answer is no. You must have continuity of obligation which means at least one person on the note must remain. You could refinance and add him, but he cannot refinance without you.
lemshu,
I have a listing @ 1400 Laura Duncan Road in Apex by the High School. This one is still for sale.

There are no registered sex offenders in Sunset Hills. If you want, you can check for yourself on http://www.familywatchdog.us/. I am not sure what Stephanie is talking about....
Get a buyer's agent! The answer varies by builder and subdivision. You save NOTHING by not having an agent to represent you, and an agent can give you information that you cannot find on your own. I know that some people think of us like car salesmen... all rushing for the sale. But we DO offer a good service to buyers. Pick a good agent and put them to work!
Good luck!... more
Walden Creek is a great neighborhood... Nice amenities, great location, and the swim team is huge! The location in Apex is fantastic. I personally live in Cameron Park, just off of Olive Chapel. Schools around here are all good. Check out www.ncreportcards.org for detailed information and comparisons on each school. It sounds like there may be upcoming changes, so verify assignments at: http://wwwgis2.wcpss.net/cgi-bin/prod/mainscript/MainScript.pl
If you have specific questions on a specific house, you can email me directly. Good luck!... more
HUD properties are a gold mine. Are all HUD homes gems? No, but if you are diligent about looking daily for deals, they are there for the taking. I am a certified HUD agent and I have seen them!
