Caviness and Cates Named Home Builder Of The Year

November 19, 2010—Fayetteville, NC – Caviness and Cates, of Fayetteville, NC, has been awarded the Home Builder of the Year Award by the Home Builders Association of Fayetteville. The Home Builder of the Year Award was established 22 years ago to honor the builder member who went above and beyond as a builder and to recognize their many years of outstanding service to the Association, to the home building industry, and to their commitment in assisting others to realize the American dream of home ownership.

Caviness and Cates Communities, a home builder based in Fayetteville NC, was added to the distinguished list of the Home Builders Association of Fayetteville - Home Builder of the Year. This honor has been bestowed upon Caviness and Cates as a result of their quality and dedication to customer satisfaction, and by ensuring that the employees and trade partners of their company go to great lengths to see that each home is built to exceed the expectations of the individual homebuyer.
Chris Cates of Caviness and Cates Communities accepted the award Tuesday night, “We want to thank everyone at the Fayetteville Association of Home Builders; I was very honored to accept the award on behalf of our entire Caviness and Cates team.” Caviness and Cates is grateful to their clients and is proud to provide hundreds of military and civilian families in Southeastern North Carolina with a new home to call their own.

In addition to serving the home needs of their clients, Caviness and Cates created the HomeFront Project. Through this project, Caviness and Cates has pledged to donate a portion of their 2010 home sales to the men and women of the military and their families. In January, Caviness and Cates will make an announcement demonstrating the success of the HomeFront Project.

These two distinctions demonstrate Caviness Cates’ strong commitment and contribution to the North Carolina economy and its military and civilian families.

Another buyer has found their Fayetteville dream home!

Thank you Melissa McKinney - Another buyer has found their dream C&C home in Summer Grove.

Summer Grove is a wonderful neighborhood in the Jack Britt School District! This Buyer started their search on my web site www.FayettevilleNcHomeFinder.com, where searching for a home online is easy! Once they spoke to the loan officer to get their pre approval we took their list of homes and ran with it! Really didn't take them long to fall in love with this 2 1/2 story home in Summer Grove.

This is a new construction home built by Caviness and Cates, a great builder to work with here in Fayetteville NC. They have a wonderful warranty on this property, what they call the 1,2,10. One year the roof and everything under it, two years mechanical and ten years structural! If that does not show how much they stand behind their product I don't know what does.

Fayetteville area gears up for growth at Bragg, beyond

An exciting article from the News and Observer

BY MARTHA QUILLIN - Staff Writer

FAYETTEVILLE -- Kelly Edge has always hated computers, never felt the need for anything more high-tech than a good blow-dryer and curling iron at her Leading Edge Salon in Fayetteville. Six months ago, her 9-year-old shop didn't even have a Web page.

Then one of her regulars asked her: How are any of the thousands of new people moving into town in the next year going to find you?

Those people are soldiers and civilian employees from Fort McPherson, the U.S. Army base outside Atlanta that the military is closing. The prospect of gaining some new customers from all those soldiers and their families finally got Edge to put her shop on the Internet. Though the Georgia-to-North Carolina migration has barely begun, she has already seen an increase in business.

"I'm very excited about it," said Edge, a lifelong Fayetteville resident. "I feel like you can't get too crowded."

Much of the state is still slogging through a slow-to-recover economy. But in Fayetteville NC, the broader region around Fort Bragg and even as far away as the Triangle, planners are bracing for an influx of about 40,000 people who are expected to come with - or follow - two major Army commands moving to Fort Bragg.

Forces Command, led by a four-star general and the largest command in the Army, oversees the training, mobilization and deployment of most of the Army's troops. Army Reserve Command, led by a three-star general and under the direction of Forces Command, is in charge of all reserve units.

The two commands will bring nearly 3,000 new soldiers and civilian military employees to Fort Bragg, many of them from much higher pay grades than the typical new recruit. But it's the other money under Forces Command's control that is generating most of the hype. The command has an annual budget of $30 billion to train and equip soldiers, and hundreds of contractors competing for their share are expected to move from Atlanta or elsewhere to be closer to the generals who sign the checks.

With them would come spouses and children and hundreds of millions of dollars in salaries to be spent on goods and services. In all, studies say, the move could generate up to 19,000 new jobs in an 11-county area. Coupled with normal growth, the influx of people could push population in the region from about 950,000 now to more than 1million when the relocation is complete.

Members of the commands' advance parties began arriving last month, with about 300 expected to be here by the end of the year. Within a year, Fort Bragg, already the country's largest military base, will have more generals than any place outside Washington.
