You should do rental prices to. Especially if someone doesn't want to buy

[@giantgeoff]

Lost my comment laying out my bonafides but absent any other data a good rule of thumb is monthly rent being roughly 1% of the fair market value of the unit.

[@RK-bx1by]

​@@giantgeoff Is the market value also inclusive of land in your calculations? If so, a rental yield of 12% is considered exceptionally good. And with the median house in America currently being around $430,000, it would imply that the median monthly rent would be somewhere around $4300 a month...

[@giantgeoff]

@@RK-bx1by True, hence the disclaimer "Absent any other data" A 4-5 Bedroom Single Family Residence in our area that is in 1 Standard Deviation of the Median price for such homes. The other way of guesstimating prices is how much would it cost to build a similar unit on locally available buildable land and what level of that kind of building is occuring in the area. None , the area is depressed and there is an over supply of existing housing stock. Some building on on the occasional vacant and previously overlooked lots basically that's kind of equilibrium. Lots of new housing developments especially condos and townhouses that's a boom and there's outside source of funds expecting a short term return on their investment, finally no land available and existing houses torn down for new build is the far end of this spectrum. All of this comes from my personal experience over the last half Century and there's lots of variation. Comes down to people need shelter and the means to pay for it.

[@Carvel0]

4 towns on the list are all next to each other. Apex, Cary, Holly Springs and Morrisville. Central NC is fantastic. Moved here last year and absolutely love it

[@giantgeoff]

Sister moved to the "Containment Area for Relocated Yankees" in the late '80's along with many folks from the Hudson Valley.

[@WorldAccordingToBriggs]

It is a nice area.

[@davidlandry3487]

If I had to move again, and had my choice on where, it would be the Triangle region of NC.

[@tedmaynard7326]

The reason that the Raleigh area is growing so much is the high-tech jobs - it is a given that workers must be imported for these jobs. The reason that there are so many good jobs is that it is such a nice area - beaches to the east, mountains to the west, and a vibrant college scene with UNC, Duke, NC State, and not so far away is East Carolina. Ergo large corporations such as Apple, Google, Facebook (Meta), ... locate in the Raleigh-Durham-Cary-Chapel Hill area.

[@SweeneyJeffreyJ]

North Carolina is pretty nice, I’d say Hendersonville, Weaverville and Waynesville near Asheville are worth mentioning too. I live just over the state line in East Tennessee. We have lower taxes and a lower cost of living but Tennessee is less affluent. I love the Blue Ridge region of both states. In general North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee are growing very fast. These states are becoming more affluent as well. The Southeast is a nice part of the country.

[@ShaqElliot]

I love me some Pennsylvania and Connecticut, but North Carolina is slowly becoming my favorite state!

[@Jjjaaahhnn]

Curious to know why those 3 states.

[@ShaqElliot]

@Jjjaaahhnn tell me your favorite states! PA has great proximity to many places and cities that you would love to visit and move to. CT Is between Boston and NYC in particular. That alongside the Long Island sounds beaches and fall foliage makes it great in my book. NC has the Smoky Mountains, multiple up and coming metro areas. Calm weather, the outer banks, sports culture, southern cuisine. All 3 places seem fairly priced to boot.

[@Jjjaaahhnn]

@@ShaqElliot I assumed that was your reason for CT. Eastern and western PA does. Central PA is more boonies especially the further north you go. I don't really have a favorite tbh. I've been all over the country. They all have their pros and cons. I'd say in terms of just quality of life and purity Vermont would be my favorite state, but it's hard to live there due to high costs and limited housing. I used to really love Washington state, Oregon, and Arizona, but after being there several times I realized they have some harsh problems of their own. It's tough. I don't necessarily need the beach, mountains, or city. At this point I'll take Kansas lol.

[@ShaqElliot]

@Jjjaaahhnn appreciated your feedback, seems you are well traveled and well read about states and living dynamics.

[@TRSWOODWORKING]

I've always thought the triangle area were all independent major cities. I was stationed at Fort Bragg, NC 1995-1999 and drove all around that state to get away from my fellow high and tights. I loved the western and eastern small towns. The middle area not so much. Great video as always.

[@Aggie4life77]

lol! I’m from the middle area and couldn’t agree with you more! I haven’t actually lived in NC in over 20 years though. Me and my wife are looking to by more investment properties and western NC or Eastern NC are on the top of the list. We may do both.

GREETINGS FROM THE PPRC VERY INTERESTING VIDEO, THANKS FOR DOING IT FOR US.🇺🇸🍺🍺

[@Dxeus]

So, a couple of weeks back, I was in Raleigh, Durham NC, for this meeting, right? Stayed in a hotel that was super close to the office, like half a mile away. I step out of the hotel and guess what? There are no sidewalks anywhere. Just roads, trees, and bushes everywhere. I had to walk on the side of the road to get to the office, and it was wild - nearly every car passing by flashed their headlights at me! I'm there, hustling with my travel bag, trying to get off the road ASAP. And get this - even the big office building didn't have any sidewalks. Seriously, how do folks in North Carolina manage? Does no one ever walk around there, even for like, lunch breaks or something?

[@kathyannpardi9888]

Wow, that's crazy, and dangerous.

[@giantgeoff]

Sidewalks are so Yankee! We have have to save those tax dollars somewhere!

[@BologneseJones]

It's because these areas used to be rural.. not so many city people and most people drove cats..no need for sidewalks..now that the population has exploded there is a need for sidewalks.. no one bikes or walks like that unless they are in their own neighborhood and it's walking dirt roads.. cultural differences

[@vincentfalcone9218]

Typical of the entire South really. No walkability.

[@joedunbarjr]

Where I live in North Carolina if we go for a walk, it is in the parks, trails, and woods. In town/city we drive from place to place. This is from most of this area having been rural not so far in the past. Public transportation and walking paths are being added but at a very slow rate. Simply they are low on the priority list.

[@tg426]

Great list! We moved from Long Island NY to Davidson NC two and a half years ago and never looked back. Like you mentioned, when we were here about a month, it felt like we were here for 20 years...just the perfect place to live. We spend a lot of time on Lake Norman and visiting Charlotte 20 minutes to the south. Being a car guy and NASCAR fan, there is no better place. In addition, we are 2 hours from the mountains for snow skiing and nature, and about 3 hours to the beach. Charlotte area is the "Goldilocks" of the east coast...everything is just right!

[@tg426]

Actually...this place sucks, don't come here! Haha 😅

[@halluvmeat]

​@@tg426not even here for 3 years AND from Long Island, brother you wouldn't even let yourself into this state 😂

[@hokieplaya]

Don’t be too quick to crown Charlotte area the Goldilocks of the east coast just cos you moved there. As apparent from the video the Raleigh Durham suburbs are even better.

[@tg426]

​@@hokieplayaagreed...Raleigh is a great area but we got a better vibe from the Charlotte area. As avid boaters, Lake Norman was a huge draw for us and the Charlotte feels more like a traditional city without the extreme liberalism we had up in NY. And just like Raleigh...a couple hours to the beaches or mountains, a major airport and more temperate climate, either city is a great place.

[@megzin00]

Just far enough away from the larger cities but close enough to Raleigh / Durham to make it a short drive. I have six acres on a flag lot where all I see is woods from any window in my house. Seven years ago, I spent $170,000 for a 2000 square foot home. Can't say enough good things about this area. The people / neighbors in this region are wonderful and very polite. They are there to help but do not intrude on your privacy. All I need is 15 to 20 minutes away with downtown Durham about 30 minutes down the road. If you are moving to this area and love the country lifestyle this is someplace you should look into.

I used to live in Holly Springs. All that is true about it. Holly Springs & Apex are safe & expensive just like Cary. It was those west suburbs of Raleigh that drew me and my family to the Raleigh area in 2007 from the Washington, DC suburbs. We were amazed how nice people were, how safe the area was, how clean the air was, and how traffic wasn't so bad. I know traffic is heavier now. So many people have been moving here in the last several years, & everyone has to have a car. I still live in Raleigh to this day, and I actually have no intention of moving anywhere else. I can't really afford to return to the west suburbs anyways.

@@davidlandry3487 Illinois gave me a $100 ticket from a camera for taking a right on red with no cars coming so I have a distaste for them for that lol

Your pics of Holly Springs are not Holly Springs NC. Must be another Holly Springs.

Cary and Gary couldn't be more different if they tried.

Why the heck isn’t Concord, NC on this list? It’s one of the fastest growing cities in NC and is a very desirable area.

[@ashleydericco]

But don’t move there folks, it’s too crowded LOL! Thanks for the video Briggs 😊

@ 13 mins-ish I also had to stop myself from saying Indiana....oh N.C. right lol.

Some tech jobs in Cary pay so dirt cheap it's like a Slap in The Face. I had recruiters call me for a job and I laugh at them when they tell me the salary.

[@giantgeoff]

Some of that is a legacy of "Big Blue" offering cradle to grave employment security and awesome benefits in exchange for loyalty and lower salaries combined with perceived lower cost of living in NC. Agree that none of that exists any longer.

NC is awesome, but the hurricanes can be bad and summer is brutal. Best place to live in NC would be closer to the mountains. Coming from a stubborn citizen in Morehead City paying an arm and a leg for house insurance due to hurricanes. Only 4 insurance companies cover east of I 95 and they are greedy. Nationwide is one of them and they are pulling thousands of coverages a year
