Ms. Haywood,
I have considered the likely impact of the proposed Parrish Road PUD in Harnett County,
North Carolina.
The scope of this assignment is to address the whether or not the proposed development will substantially injure the value of adjoining property, and whether or not the proposed
development will be in harmony with the scale, bulk, coverage, density, and character of the
neighborhood in which it is located. To this end I have reviewed the site plan and considered
the potential impacts on adjoining properties. I have not been asked to assign any value to any specific property.
This letter is a limited report of a real property appraisal consulting assignment. My client is
Forestar represented to me by Ms. Laura Haywood. The intended use is to assist in the permit
application. The effective date of this consultation is June 5, 2024.
Proposed Use Description
The subject property is owned by Senter-Coffield LLC and comprised of 100.530 acres. The
property is zoned RA-30 by Harnett County and is proposed to be developed with a mix of 123
single family lots with minimum dimensions of 60’x150’, 58 single family lots with minimum
dimensions of 75’x120’, and 167 townhome lots. A total of 348 residential units on 100.53
acres for an effective density of 3.46 units per acre. The project includes 34.383 acres of open
space and the amenity package will include a dog park, pool with clubhouse, and a
commercial outlot at the north end of Parrish Road near Chalybeate Springs Road.
The map on the following page shows the subject property.

The adjoining uses are primarily residential single-family homes on lots to the south on Parrish Road as well as agricultural land surrounding this use on the east and west sides and
Drakes Landing Shooting and Hunting club to the north across Chalybeate Springs Road.
The land to the east and west is owned by William Daniel Andrews, the same owner of the
Drakes Landing property. The three adjoining parcels to the south include:
594 Parrish Road owned by Dawn Michelle German with a single-family home on 0.70 acres
595 Parrish Road owned by Dwight D. Parrish et ux with a single-family home on 1.42 acres
615 Parrish Road owned by Walter Dean Parrish with a single-family home on 27.37 acres
There are seven other single-family homes further south on or off Parrish Road, which is a
dead end road.
The proposed project has the single-family homes located primarily on the east side of Parrish
Road and the townhome units will be located on the southwest side. The commercial lot is to
be located on the west side of Parrish Road near the north end of the tract at the pool and
amenity area.
The closest townhome to an adjoining residential use is 435 feet north of 594 Parrish Road.
The second closest distance to an adjoining residential use is 610 feet north of 595 Parrish
Road.

The single-family lots on the east side of Parrish Road will include four lots that adjoin 595 Parrish Road. There is HOA space separating these two uses that is 50 feet wide and then the
home sites would be further separated by the yards of the two uses. The exact location of a
home on that lot has not been determined, but based on a likely location the home would be
150 feet from the nearest point of the home located at 595 Parrish Road.

Other Nearby Uses
The subject property is located between Angier and US Highway 401 at Chalybeate Springs
Road. There are numerous developments on either end of this range with subdivision
developments on either side. The subdivision near the south end of Parrish Road is Victoria
Hills which has single family homes on 0.5 acres to 2 acres each. To the southeast there is Kinnis Creek and Neills Creek Farms subdivisions with a mix of lots from 1 acre to some larger
ones up to 20 acres. Also to the east along Chalybeate Springs Road is Cross Link Place with
homes on 0.5 to 6 acres, with most being on that 0.5-acre size.
There are a number of other subdivisions located along Atkins Road to the northeast such as
Southern Acres with homes on 0.30 acre lots up to 1 acre lots.
Neill’s Point is a new subdivision past Atkins Road on Chalybeate Springs Road with lots
averaging 0.16 acres each. The first three phases of this development included 82 lots on
23.6776 acres, or 3.46 units per acre. This is the same density proposed at the subject
property. The trend shown by Neill’s Point and the proposal at the subject property is an
ongoing trend for smaller lots in an attempt to make homes more affordable than traditional
building patterns.
Another nearby development shown in the map below is just northwest of the solar farm
outlined in green. This development is proposed to include a total of 393 single family lots
and 80 townhomes for 2.27 units per acre.
Ongoing development of the vacant land between these two centers is anticipated.

Market Data - Townhomes
I have considered the proximity of the nearby homes to multifamily uses focusing on townhomes.
Brookmere Townhomes
Brookmere Townhomes are located off NC 55 West in Angier with apartments to the north
and single-family homes to the south in Cambridge Subdivision. The MLS shows 22 homes
having sold in Cambridge Subdivision since 2020 with homes.
The home at 117 Cambridge Drive sold on December 9, 2021 for $260,000 or $198.32 per
square foot. This home is 174 feet from the nearest townhome, but located near a future
townhome site that would be only 114 feet away. This is well above the average and median
rates for the neighborhood and shows no impact due to proximity and adjacency to the
townhome.
I also looked at 21 Cambridge Drive that sold on December 22, 2022 for $300,000, or $208.33
per square foot. This home is 121 feet from the nearest townhome and sold near the very top

end of prices in the neighborhood showing no impact due to adjacency to the townhome. This measurement is shown below.

Sterling Subdivision
This subdivision includes a mix of townhomes and single-family homes with the closest home
being 45 feet away with no expectation of impact on property value given they were developed
together.
The most recent sale identified is 224 Sterling Way that sold on August 30, 2021 for $240,000, or $182.51 per square foot. This home is 58 feet from the nearest townhome. I found 7 total
sales in this development since 202 and this sale at $240,000 is near the high end of the
range, above the average and at the high end of the range on a per square foot as well. No
sign of an impact from the townhomes is observed.

The Landing at Arnold Park
The Landing at Arnold Park is located in Fuquay Varina near Harnett County off Wagstaff
Road. This mix of townhomes and single family includes townhomes being located directly
across from single family homes on Citrus Petal Drive with homes as close as 80 feet. These
are all part of the same development with no expectation of impact on property value.

Lake Park Luxury Townhomes
The townhomes at Lake Park Luxury Townhomes were built in 1996 and are located off E.
Williams Street and adjoin the park.
The single-family homes to the north are all approximately 80 feet north of the townhome
units. The townhomes have recent sales prices ranging from $210,000 to $235,000.
Three of the homes to the north have sold in recent years. 384 E Smithfield Street sold on
June 1, 2020 for $155,000 for this 1,173 s.f. ranch on 0.23 acres. 398 E Smithfield Street
sold on November 5, 2021 for $208,000 for a 1,310 s.f. home on 0.23 acres. 408 E Smithfield
Street sold on May 16, 2022 for $285,000 for this 1,248 s.f. home on 0.23 acres built in 1993. This sale had a $4,000 financing concession for an effective purchase price of $281,000. This
property sold for over $20,000 above the asking price of $259,900. This was a recently
updated property with new appliances and roof with a fenced backyard and storage building.
Clearly there is strong appreciation being shown for these homes over time. Focusing on the
most recent sale in 2022 I have considered similar nearby home prices that are not adjoining
townhomes or the park. The purchase price at $281,000 for 1,248 s.f. works out to $225.16
per s.f.
I have compared this to 587 Circle Drive that is a newly built single-family dwelling that sold
on December 29, 2022 for $323,500 with $14,998 in financing concessions which works out
to an effective purchase price of $308,502. This was 1,492 s.f. built in 2022 on 0.26 acres.
Assuming the recent updates at 408 E Smithfield balance out the difference in age with the
inclusion of the fencing and the storage building, this works out to $206.77 per s.f. which is
less than the price paid for 408 E Smithfield Street, which strongly supports a finding of no
impact on value due to the adjoining townhomes.

Lionsgate Townhomes
Lionsgate Townhomes are located in Clayton and adjoin single family housing to the south
within the Lionsgate subdivision. These units were built in 2018 and are all owned by Lionsgate Townhomes, LLC. The single-family homes within Lionsgate subdivision adjoining
the townhomes are as close as 50 feet from the adjoining townhomes.
One of the closer homes in Lionsgate Subdivision, 251 Fieldspar Lane, sold on November 30,
2020 for $230,000 for a 1,477 square foot 1-story dwelling built in 2016 with a 2-car garage. I have compared this to 85 E Lumber Court that sold on October 13, 2020 for $218,000 for a
1,477 square foot 1-story dwelling built in 2018 with a 2-car garage. This home is similar and
the same floorplan and is located a block south and within the same subdivision, but not
adjoining a townhome.
The homes have the same floorplan, year built, and a similar sales time period. The primary
difference is that the 85 E Lumber Court sale is on a 0.310-acre lot and the 251 Fieldspar
Lane sale is on a 0.11-acre lot. Comparing these two sales I see no basis for any impact due
to the adjacent townhome and actually suggests a positive impact given that the home next
to the townhomes on a smaller lot sold for more than the identical home on a larger lot.
The adjoining townhomes are within 135 feet of the dwelling that sold on Fieldspar Lane.

Summerwind Plantation
Summerwind Plantation is located in Clayton and adjoin single family housing to the west
within the Village at Cleveland Springs and to the north within Trace at Summerwind. These
units were built in 2008. The single-family homes within the Village at Cleveland Springs
adjoining the townhomes are as close as 70 feet from the adjoining townhomes. The single-family homes within the Trace at Summerwind are as close as 45 feet from the adjoining
townhomes.
One of the closer homes in the Village at Cleveland Springs, 98 Outwater Ridge Drive, sold on
February 19, 2021 for $293,000 for a 2,107 square foot 2-story dwelling built in 2015 with a 2-car garage.
I have compared this to 344 Outwater Ridge Drive that sold on June 7, 2021 for $305,000 for
a 1,855 square foot 2-story dwelling built in 2019 with a 2-car garage. This home is similar
and is located to the north and within the same subdivision, but not adjoining a townhome.
I have adjusted the comparable downwards by 2% for market conditions, downwards by 6%
for a newer year built and upwards for the difference in s.f. This indicates a value of $305,826
for the comparable sale at 344 Outwater Ridge Drive. The indicated impact for being adjacent
to the townhome is negative 4.4% which is an indication of a negative impact for being
adjacent to the townhome. However, this is within typical market friction and is an indication
of no impact for being adjacent to the townhome.

I have compared this to 35 Pine Creek Court that sold on December 30, 2020 for $275,000 for a 2,495 square foot 2-story dwelling built in 2016 with a 2-car garage. This home is similar
and is located to the northwest and within the same subdivision, but not adjoining a
townhome.
I have adjusted the comparable upward by 1% for market conditions, downwards by 2% for a newer year built and downwards for the difference in s.f. This indicates a value of $246,536
for the comparable sale at 35 Pine Creek Court. The indicated impact for being adjacent to
the townhome is positive 19% which is an indication of a positive impact for being adjacent to
the townhome.
I note that the adjoining townhomes are within 77 feet of the dwelling that sold on Outwater
Bridge Road. One matched pair shows a mild negative impact, while the other shows a
significant positive impact.

Summerwind Communities
This is another example of the interconnectivity between multifamily and single family uses
and how they are common in the market. This includes the Summerwind Apartments,
Summerwind Plantation (Townhomes on previous page), Cleveland Springs Townhomes, the
Village at Cleveland Springs subdivision and Summerwind Trace subdivision. This is in Clayton and shows compatibility between multifamily and single family uses in the market
area.

Garden Spot Townhomes
Garden Spot Townhomes is located in Clayton and adjoins single family housing to the west
within the Stonebrook subdivision and to the east within the Glen Haven subdivision. These units were built in 2001. The single-family homes within the Stonebrook subdivision
adjoining the townhomes are as close as 100 feet from the adjoining townhomes. The single-
family homes within the Glen Haven subdivision are as close as 150 feet from the adjoining
townhomes.
One of the closer homes in the Glen Haven subdivision, 105 Mitchell Avenue, sold on February
19, 2019 for $167,000 for a 1,423 square foot 1-story dwelling built in 1997 with a 1-car
garage. I have compared this to 205 Hunter Way that sold on June 7, 2019 for $173,000 for
a 1,538 square foot 1-story dwelling built in 1998 with a 1-car garage. This home is similar
and is located to the east and within the same subdivision, but not adjoining a townhome.
I have adjusted the comparable upward by 2% for market conditions, downwards by 2% for a
newer year built and downwards for the difference in s.f. This indicates a value of $165,169
for the comparable sale at 205 Hunter Way. The indicated impact for being adjacent to the
townhome is negative 1.1% which is within typical market friction and is a basis for a finding
of no impact on value. Comparing these two sales I see no basis for any impact due to the
adjacent townhome. I note that the adjoining townhomes are within 150 feet of the dwelling
that sold on Mitchell Avenue.

Capital Creek Apartments
Capital Creek Apartments are just east of the Crossings at Heritage apartments that are
discussed next and are located directly north of a section of The Homestead at Heritage as shown above. This is a mixed-use development where the developers intentionally co-located
these uses with no anticipation of negative impacts. The apartment buildings are 100 feet off
the property line of the homes to the south. These three-story apartments were built in 2016
and the single-family homes were developed in the same time frame starting in 2015.
These apartments are 3-story apartments adjoining single family housing with only 100 feet
between them.
First and foremost is the fact that the developer of both the subdivision and the apartment
site were one and the same and they chose to locate these two uses in this manner, which shows no expectation of a negative impact with this similar situation.
I also considered the most recent home sale adjoining these apartments which was 3425
Mountain Hill Drive that sold on October 6, 2020 for $445,000 for a 3,114 square foot 2-story
home built in 2018 with a 2-car garage. I have compared this to 2017 Higley Drive in the
same subdivision but not adjoining the apartments. That home sold on June 9, 2020 for
$478,000 for a 3,477 square foot, 2-story home built in 2016 with a 2-car garage. Adjusting
that sale upward by 1% for growth in the market, upward by 2% for difference in year built,
but downward by 10% for the difference in size, I derive an adjusted indication of value for the
non-adjoining home of $444,540. This is very similar to the indication of value for the home
adjoining the apartments.

This matched pair does not support a negative impact for the adjoining 3-story-apartments to the single-family dwelling at 100 feet off the rear property line. This a strong indicator of no
impact on adjoining and nearby home values.
Ms. Laura Haywood
June 5, 2024
17
Crossings at Heritage Apartments
Crossings at Heritage Apartments as shown above directly adjoins another section of The
Homestead at Heritage subdivision. This is directly west of the Capital Creek Apartments discussed above. This is another mixed-use development where the developers intentionally
co-located these uses with no anticipation of negative impacts. The apartment buildings are
50 to 55 feet off the property line of the homes to the south. These one-story apartments were
built in 2005 and the single-family homes were not developed until 2015.
The most recent home sale adjoining these apartments was 3373 Mountain Hill Drive that
sold on August 26, 2020 for $467,000 for a 3,304 square foot 2-story home built in 2017 with
a 2-car garage. I have compared this to 3356 Mountain Hill Drive in the same subdivision but
not adjoining the apartments. That home sold on June 28, 2020 for $413,000 for a 2,893
square foot, 2-story home with some stone façade, built in 2015 with a 2-car garage. Adjusting
that sale upward by 2% for difference in year built and upward by 14% for the difference in
size but downward by 4% for the stonework, I derive an adjusted indication of value for the
non-adjoining home of $462,560. This is a much closer co-location of single family housing
and apartments, which strongly supports a finding of no impact at the subject property.
This matched pair does not support a negative impact for the adjoining apartments to the
single-family dwelling at 50 feet off the rear property line.

Conclusion – Proximity to Townhomes
The chart below summarizes the findings where I have compared individual home sales next
to townhomes to the larger subdivision. The sales prices show home prices between the
Median and High end of the range in all instances identified. The sales price is the high end
of the range in one of the four examples at Lake Park in Angier.
The second chart below identifies specific paired sales shown on the earlier pages. The paired
sales show a range of impacts from -4% to +16%. Excluding the highest and lowest indicators
the range is +0% to +9%. The median indicated impact is +1%. Market impacts between +/-5% are within typical market imperfection and does not support any impact at all. For this
reason, I consider the set of paired sales to provide strong support for no impact on homes
under $470,000 at distances around 80 feet or more.
The proposed use is typical for new developments in the area with a mix of housing types.
While the density is higher than immediately adjoining development, they are typical and fall
within common single family development densities as shown through comparison with Neill’s Point to the east. Similar mixed neighborhoods with townhomes and single-family housing
have shown compatibility and harmony between these uses at similar distances as shown in
this report.
I conclude based on the data presented that the proposed development will not substantially
injure the value of adjoining property. The closest townhome to an adjoining home will be 435
feet away. Paired sales supports no impacts for numerous comparables at much closer
distances than that with most supporting no impacts starting at or before 100 feet of
