Updated employment figures of hiring jobs in Raleigh NC and the Triangle area surged to 17,500 new jobs lowering the unemployment rate to single digits in the most recent economic data. Raleigh continues to show signs of an improving economy. PRA International adds to the Triangle area’s clinical research industry and has doubled it’s staff in the last six months with over 400 employees. In the past week Toyota motors also announced it’s hiring another 250 employees.

Job growth is steadily improving even though we have seen some M & A activity with businesses and some having announced layoffs. It may be somewhat early to ring the bell that were well on our way to recovery but with the recent 35% uptick in Raleigh real estate sales early in 2012 it’s hard to ignore.

The Triangle area of North Carolina offers many alternatives for those who want to live in a golf community. The allure of such neighborhoods being for those who are pondering retirement, upscale living or a fully amenitized neighborhood. Surprisingly, more and more families, couples and individuals seek the high quality of life, but may not necessarily be golfers.

Interestingly, just having access to these amenities is the atttraction. Although, in the past 18 months some newer communities have clearly suffered due to economic conditions. Some simply teetering on the brink of extinction, major capital infusion requirements and in some cases a redevelopment plan.

Either a glass half full or empty analogy required or simply put an opportunity. Whichever way you look at it we do have some wonderful communities in the Triangle area.
