The rate of increase in Durham County has not been so strong as to cause any concern on my part about oversupply.

I see no short-term change in that situation. Durham has a great supply of relatively inexpensive homes.

At 37 percent new homes, this is a very strong new home market.

I'm sure rising interest rates at some point are going to take some buyers out of the marketplace. Typically, though, this does not happen in a big way until interest rates hit 8 percent and we have a long way to go until it reaches 8 percent.

Their in-house knowledge of how to do these things is very, very good.

While I think (new-home sales) will continue to grow, I don't think it can maintain the pace it had in 2005.
