Exhibit 10.76

FORBEARANCE AND CONDITIONAL RELEASE AGREEMENT

THIS FORBEARANCE AND CONDITIONAL RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of November         , 2009 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and among COMSTOCK HOMES OF RALEIGH, L.L.C., a North Carolina limited liability company (the “Borrower”), COMSTOCK HOMEBUILDING COMPANIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (“CHCI”), and FIFTH THIRD BANK, an Ohio banking corporation, successor by merger with Fifth Third Bank, N.A., successor by merger with First Charter Bank (the “Lender”).

RECITALS

Pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated May 31, 2007 by and between the Borrower and First Charter Bank (the “Bank”) (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, extended, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), the Bank agreed to make available to the Borrower a construction loan in the principal amount of up to $4,500,000 (the “Loan”), the proceeds of which were to be used to acquire and construct up to 31 lots in a subdivision known as Brookfield. The Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loan with interest is evidenced by the Borrower’s Master Promissory Note dated May 31, 2007 in the original principal amount of $4,500,000 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, extended, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Note).

The Borrower’s obligations in connection with the Loan are secured by, among other things, a Future Advance Deed of Trust dated May 31, 2007 from the Borrower to certain trustees for the benefit of the Bank (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, extended, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Deed of Trust”), which Deed of Trust covers certain real property owned by the Borrower and located in Wake County, North Carolina (the “Property”).

As used herein, (a) the term “Loan Documents” means collectively, the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Deed of Trust, the Forbearance Documents (as hereinafter defined) and all other documents previously, simultaneously or hereafter executed and delivered by the Borrower, or any other party or parties to evidence, secure, or guarantee, or in connection with, the Loan, and (b) the term “Obligations” means collectively all obligations of the Borrower under and in connection with any or all of the Loan Documents.

The Borrower is now in default under the Loan Documents by virtue of the Borrower’s failure to make interest payments as set forth therein (the “Existing Defaults”).

Lender acknowledges that CHCI is not a guarantor and has no liability under the Loan, but is a party to this Agreement solely for inducement of Lender to release Borrower and foreclose on the Property, as further described herein.

The Borrower has requested that Lender agree to modify the Loan Documents to allow for cooperative foreclosure of the Collateral, hereafter defined. Lender, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, has agreed to this request.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the representations and mutual agreements made herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Confirmation of Recitals and Other Matters. As a material inducement for Lender to enter into this Agreement, Borrower agrees with Lender, and represents and warrants to Lender, that (i) the statements set forth in the recitals to this Agreement are true and correct and contain no material omission of fact, (ii) the Loan Documents are in default and all obligations under the Loan Documents are fully matured and immediately due and payable in full without offset, defense, or reduction, (iii) Borrower has received or waived any notices to which it is entitled with respect to the Existing Defaults under the Loan Documents, and (iv) but for this Agreement, Lender, may, at its option and without further notice to or demand upon Borrower or any other person, exercise and enforce any and all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.

2. Forbearance Covenant. Notwithstanding the Existing Defaults under the Loan Documents, but subject to the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement, Lender agrees that it will not take any action or file any proceedings, at law or in equity, to enforce the rights and remedies of Lender against Borrower or CHCI other than the Foreclosure Proceedings (hereafter defined).

3. Foreclosure of Collateral. Borrower acknowledges that Lender intends to commence proceedings to foreclose its security title, lien, and security interest in and to all Property securing the Loans, as described in the Deed of Trust and Loan Documents (collectively, the “Collateral”), in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents and applicable law (the “Foreclosure Proceedings”). Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the foreclosure of the Collateral by February 28, 2010. In consideration of the foregoing, Borrower (i) ratifies and affirms Lender’s security title, lien, and security interest in and to the Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents, (ii) acknowledges and agrees that Borrower has received commercially reasonable, timely, and accurate notice of Lender’s intention to foreclose its security title, lien, and security interest in the Collateral and that Lender is satisfied all requirements set forth in the Loan Documents relating to commencement of the Foreclosure Proceedings, and (iii) covenants and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Lender in connection with the Foreclosure Proceedings, including but not limited to, executing and returning an original waiver of right to notice and hearing in form and substance attached hereto as Schedule III.

4. Deliveries by Borrower. Borrower covenants to Lender that within fifteen (15) business days after each written request therefor (to the extent that any of such items are in the possession or direct control of Borrower), Borrower will deliver or cause the following items relating to the Collateral to be delivered to Lender whether such request is made prior or subsequent to the date of this Agreement or the foreclosure of any of the Collateral: (i) any certificates of occupancy, licenses, and other governmental permits or notices; (ii) any surveys, plats, drawings, engineering reports, maps, plans and specifications, and other similar matters; (iii) any tax assessments, notices, bills and/or statements; and (iv) any keys necessary to obtain full access to the Collateral.

5. Lender Release. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Lender will enter into and issue a conditional release (the “Release”), pursuant to which Lender will fully and unconditionally release Borrower and CHCI (collectively, the “Obligors”) from any and all claims, liabilities, and obligations under the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to the Loans and the Collateral which will become effective upon the Release Issuance Date. In no event shall the Release act to release CHCI from its obligations pursuant to the Deficiency Note (hereafter defined). The form of Release shall be as set forth on Schedule I attached to this Agreement. The Release shall be executed by the Lender and shall be held in escrow by Borrower’s counsel (the “Escrow Agent”) until the completion of the foreclosure of the Collateral by Lender (the “Release Issuance Date”) and shall thereafter be delivered to Borrower and CHCI by the Escrow Agent without further requirement or consent of the Parties. For the purposes of this Agreement, the completion of the foreclosure of the Collateral shall be the date on which title to all of the Collateral has been transferred by a recorded substitute trustee’s deed. So long as Lender completes the foreclosure of the Collateral by February 28, 2010, CHCI shall enter into an unsecured promissory note naming Lender as note holder and CHCI as Borrower for the sum of Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($25,000) (“Deficiency Note”). The Deficiency Note shall be executed concurrent with this Agreement and delivered to Escrow Agent to be held in escrow until Lender successfully completes the foreclosure of the Collateral. The form of the Deficiency Note shall be as set forth on Schedule II attached to this Agreement. If Lender fails to complete the foreclosure of the Collateral by February 28, 2010, the Deficiency Note shall be void and returned to the Obligors by Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the foreclosure of the Collateral is not complete by February 28, 2010 due to the imposition of an automatic stay resulting from a bankruptcy filing affecting the Borrower, then the February 28, 2010 deadline set forth in the preceding sentence shall be extended to a date no earlier than ninety (90) days after the date on which an order lifting the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral is entered. Failure to complete foreclosure of the Collateral by February 28, 2010 shall have no effect on the binding nature of the Release.

6. Reaffirmation of Obligations. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, no action of Lender under this Agreement or otherwise shall act to release Borrower from its obligations to Lender under the Loan Documents, and any and all other indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of Borrower to Lender (collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Obligations”), and all of said Obligations are hereby ratified and affirmed the same as if repeated on this date, and Borrower acknowledges that it has no legal or equitable defenses or offsets with respect to the Obligations until such time as the Release Issuance Date. Borrower ratifies and confirms all terms and conditions of the Obligations and the Loan Documents, and acknowledges that the same are in full force and effect and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms.

7. Borrower Release. In consideration of Lender’s entering into this Agreement, Borrower and for itself and its respective heirs, executors, successors and assigns, hereby jointly and severally fully and forever releases, relinquishes, discharges, settles and compromises any and all claims, cross-claims, counterclaims, causes, damages and actions of every kind and character, and all suits, costs, damages, expenses,

3

compensation and liabilities of every kind, character and description, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, in law or in equity, which it has, had, may have, or will have against Lender, and/or any of its affiliates, parents, directors, agents, representatives, officers, employees, attorneys, consultants, or contractors (collectively, the “Released Lender Parties”) on account of, arising, or resulting from, or in any manner incidental to, any and every thing or event occurring or failing to occur at any time in the past up to and including the Effective Date hereof, including, without limitation, any claims relating to the Loans, the Loan Documents, any act and event relating to Lender’s administration of the Loans or the other Obligations, and any act and event relating to any Released Lender Parties. The foregoing does not act as a release of liability for obligations arising out of performance of this Agreement which shall be administered in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be enforceable by all Parties.

8. Representations and Warranties. In addition to all other representations and warranties set forth herein, Obligors represent, warrant, and covenant to and with Lender, which representations, warranties and covenants shall survive until the Obligations are indefeasibly released or otherwise satisfied in full, that:

(a) Obligors have the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to incur the obligations and consummate the transactions described herein and therein, all of which have been authorized by all proper and necessary corporate action where applicable.

(b) This Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of Obligors enforceable in accordance with its terms and does not violate, conflict with, or constitute any default under any law, government regulation, organizational documents, or any other agreement or instrument binding upon or applicable to Obligors.

(c) No approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any governmental official, board or authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, except such approvals and authorizations as have been received, such actions as have been taken, and such filings as have been made.

9. Consent to Relief from Stay. Borrower further agrees that, in the event that Borrower (by its own action or the action of any of its beneficial owners) shall, prior to the completed foreclosure of Collateral (i) file with any bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction or be the subject of any petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, (ii) be the subject of any order for relief issued under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, (iii) file any petition seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, receivership, or similar relief under any present or future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors, or (iv) seek, consent to, or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator, or liquidator, Lender will thereupon be entitled to relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of the United States

4

Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to Lender as provided in any of the Loan Documents, and as otherwise provided by law, and Borrower hereby waives the benefits of such automatic stay and consent and agree to raise no objection to such relief.

10. No Waiver by Lender. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of Lender to exercise any right, power, or privilege under any of the Loan Documents will affect any other or future exercise of such right, power, or privilege. Any departure by Lender from the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents prior to the date of this Agreement will not limit or restrict Lender’s right to require that Borrower strictly perform and observe the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents until Obligor’s receipt of the Release.

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement among the parties relating to the specific subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes any prior agreements, commitments and understandings between the parties. The Recitals are incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth in the body of this Agreement.

14. Invalid Provision to Affect No Others. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement shall involve transcending the limit of validity presently prescribed by any applicable law, with regard to obligations of like character and amount, then ipso facto the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity. Further, if any cause or provision herein contained operates or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Agreement, in whole or in part, then such clause or provision only shall be held for naught, as though not herein contained, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect.

14. To the extent any transfer, payment or distribution of assets with respect to all or any portion of the Senior Debt (whether in cash, property or securities and whether by or on behalf of any Obligor as proceeds of security or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to any Obligor, the estate in bankruptcy thereof, any third party, or a trustee, receiver or other similar party under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, then if such payment is recovered by, or paid over to, any Obligor, the estate in bankruptcy thereof, any third party, or such trustee, receiver or other similar party, the Senior Debt or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment or distribution had not occurred, and this Paragraph 8 and the agreements and subordination contained herein shall be reinstated with respect to any such transfer, payment or distribution. No Agent shall be required to contest any such declaration or obligation to return such payment or distribution.

15. Each holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness intentionally and unconditionally waives and relinquishes any right to challenge the validity, enforceability and binding effect of any of the Senior Security Documents or the other Senior Loan Documents, and any lien, encumbrance, claim or security interest now or hereafter created thereunder, or the attachment, perfection or priority thereof, regardless of the order of recording or filing of any thereof, or compliance by the Agents, or either of them, or the Senior Lenders, or any of them, with the terms of any of the Senior Security Documents or any of the other Senior Loan Documents, by reason of any matter, cause or thing now or hereafter occurring, nor shall the holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness raise any such matter, cause or thing as a defense to the enforcement thereof.
