City land sales boosting housing market

Along with adding some extra jingle to the city coffers, recent sales of surplus municipal land are helping to provide more housing in a tight market locally. “When we sold these properties, the intent was to build houses on them,” City Manager Darren Lewis said last Thursday night when the latest transaction was approved by the Mount Airy Board of Commissioners. That involved a site of about one-half acre on Carolina Avenue. It is one of 11 different parcels declared surplus property by city officials last year and put on the auction block, some of which are outside the city limits Included were lots on North Franklin Road, East Wilson Street, North Main Street, Fancy Gap Road, Lakeview Drive (three parcels), Carolina Avenue (three parcels) and Lyn Avenue. Only the property on Lyn Avenue remains unsold from that list, which is located in the Westwood area near North Franklin Road. Lewis said after Thursday night’s meeting that plans for “10-plus” houses have resulted from the sales of surplus property, meaning officials saw no future use for it by the municipality. To market the land, Mount Airy has been using GovDeals, an online marketplace geared toward government, educational and related entities

Ryan Homes to build new homes in Roanoke after hand-off from ABoone Real Estate

For the past few years ABoone Real Estate has moved away from the full cycle of residential development, from planning through construction, focusing now on site preparation and any zoning issues – then handing off the actual building of houses to publicly-traded Ryan Homes, a northern Virginia-based developer that operates in many markets and can purchase construction materials in bulk at lower prices. The Wilton South subdivision of single-family detached homes that Ryan Homes will now develop after ABoone did the early prep work are priced from around $700,000 and up.
