Who are the major developers of new construction homes in Harnett County, NC?

When looking at new construction homes in Harnett County, NC, you'll often find properties built by D.R. Horton, DRB Homes, Mattamy Homes, Dream Finders Homes and Adams Homes. These developers have been key in shaping the area's new residential areas.

Which areas are seeing the most new home development in Harnett County?

The new construction market here is driven by two distinct commuter flows. The northern tier, particularly Angier and Lillington, is experiencing a boom of buyers moving south from Wake County seeking more affordable pricing and larger lots. In the southern sector, the Anderson Creek area remains a primary hub for military families and defense contractors due to its immediate proximity to Fort Liberty. These locations feature numerous master-planned communities that offer suburban amenities while maintaining a quieter, semi-rural atmosphere.

Are there specific financing advantages for buying new in Harnett County?

Yes, a significant portion of Harnett County is designated as "rural" by the federal government, meaning many new construction neighborhoods may qualify for USDA Rural Development loans. This program allows eligible buyers to purchase a home with zero down payment, a major benefit for first-time homeowners. While the northernmost edges near Fuquay-Varina are becoming more suburban, vast sections of the county—including areas around CoatsErwin, and Dunn—often fall within the eligible map. Buyers should verify the specific property eligibility with their lender.

How does the highway network support commuting from Harnett County?

Because Harnett County sits between two major metros, residents rely on key arterial highways rather than a central interstate. US-401 and NC-55 are the lifelines for those in the northern towns commuting to Raleigh and the Research Triangle Park. For residents in the western and southern portions, NC-87 provides a direct, multi-lane link to Sanford and the gates of Fort Liberty. While I-95 runs through the eastern edge near Dunn, most daily commuters utilize these state highways, so it is wise to test your specific route during peak hours.
