When budgeting, it's important to remember the advertised price of a new construction home may only be the starting point. The complete cost can include increases for a homesite premium, structural or design upgrades, HOA fees, closing expenses, taxes, insurance, and features that may not be included.

Having Hillsborough Real Estate Group on your side can help you understand what is included, identify additional expenses, and compare the complete cost with your other options.

Considering new construction? Call Hillsborough Real Estate Group before you visit the model home, and we’ll help you look at the full picture. In many cases, the builder offers compensation to the buyer’s agent, so having your own representation may be at no additional cost to you. Compensation varies and should always be confirmed.

At Hillsborough Real Estate Group, we know the Western Triangle isn’t one market. We understand the details that make each community different. Sometimes your next favorite place, or your next home, is just down the road.

Ready to explore? Let’s talk.

It's our job to watch the market and help you make a smart move when the time is right. Realtor.com named - on average - September 27 through October 3 the best week to buy a home nationally for 2026. This is when buyers may find more choices, less competition, and greater price flexibility.

The best opportunity still depends on your budget, the local market, and when moving makes sense for you. If making a move has been on your mind, let's talk.

in 1947, Bill France Sr. and four other racing entrepreneurs incorporated the Hillsboro Speedway in Orange County with the aim of bringing auto racing to central North Carolina.

Racing, however, long had been a pastime in the area. The land on which the speedway was built was located on property previously owned by to***co magnate Julian Shakespeare Carr, who constructed a horse racing track. The site of the track later became the site of the Occoneechee Speedway.

It was in the late 1940s that Bill France Sr., an auto-racing organizer from Daytona Beach, saw the racetrack from the air as he was flying over Orange County. He gathered investors and secured the land. Less than a month later, France and a group of racing promoters formed the National Association for Stock Car Automobile Racing, that is, NASCAR.

The original plan was to build a one-mile oval racetrack with 5,000 seats but, when finished, the Occoneechee Speedway had wooden grandstands that held 10,000 and sloped hillsides that could fit 25,000 more. The track opened in June 1948 with a 10-mile NASCAR race watched by about 20,000 fans. It closed in 1968, and the site is now on the National Register of Historic Places.
