Gig Harbor, Washington , Sept. 17, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Harbor Custom Development, Inc. (“Harbor” or the “Company”), (NASDAQ: HCDI), an innovative and market leading real estate company involved in all aspects of the land development cycle, today announced that it has entered into a fully executed Purchase and Sale Agreement to acquire 48 acres currently in the entitlement process for 145 undeveloped lots located in Belfair, Washington. The purchase price for the acquisition will be $3.915M and closing is expected to take place upon preliminary plat approval on or before March 15, 2021.The Belfair site, known as Olympic Ridge, represents Harbor’s continued expansion into (North) Mason County, which is adjacent to Kitsap County, where Harbor continues to develop numerous single-family residential communities as it has over the last six years. Belfair is approximately 20 minutes from the Kitsap Naval Base, a major contributor to a robust defense economy with approximately 40,000 employees tied to the military and defense industry in the area. Harbor’s current plans for the site would result in the largest new single-family subdivision constructed in Mason County in the last decade. “The opportunity to expand our footprint in Mason County was extremely attractive to us due to our intimate knowledge of the surrounding area that has been a key to our success,” stated Sterling Griffin, CEO and President of Harbor. “Belfair offers families traditional suburban and rural settings for home ownership while providing the convenience of a short commute to major employment opportunities. The Olympic Ridge property is only a 20-minute commute to downtown Bremerton and the west coast’s largest Naval Base, and 45 minutes to Tacoma’s urban corridor. Given the location, size, and purchase price of the property, we are excited to take this next step and add the Olympic Ridge acquisition to our portfolio of properties.”About Harbor Custom Development, Inc.Harbor Custom Development, Inc. is a real estate development company involved in all aspects of the land development cycle including land acquisition, entitlements, construction of project infrastructure, home building, marketing, sales, and management of various residential projects in Western Washington’s Puget Sound region.
