absolutely one of the most informative well done videos pertaining to the triangle communities i have ever seen. my family and extended family are fleeing the northeast and was looking for a wonderful small town feel to settle in with good schools and a cute town center. I think Holly Springs may be the choice! God Bless you.

Any recommendation where to buy 3acre plus properties close to commuter towns to offer dog businesses? And which area would be best for horseowners?
@EllenPitts2 жыл бұрын
In the Triangle area the best places to find acreage for horses is going to be Chatham County/Western Apex, Pittsboro, etc. You can also find larger lots up in the Wake Forest/ Falls Lake area. It really depends on price point though. Feel free to send me an email and I would be glad to help cellenpitts@gmail.com

Well we do get occasional hurricanes in this area, but the damage is minimal..at least compared to where I grew up in Florida. But as for affordable, in the Raleigh area I would recommend Knightdale.

My oldest son is going to school for game design. I was actually surprised to learn that video games are really just like interactive movies. I hadn’t thought of it that way, but he’s a writer and artist. Gaming culture combines artistic skills with tech skills and I’m just thankful it’s a way creatives can make a living! 😊 But yeah I’m also too old to really get it. 😂
