We spend three months a year on Hilton Head Island. It is our second home. We rent and try different houses. We especially enjoy taking the boat from Hilton Head Island to Savannah. He says that gas is less…it is amazingly and sadly much lower than Maine.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

My wife and I both grew up going to Hilton Head for family vacations. Because of that we always go to HHI for the beach vs. Tybee Island. That video was done in May 2020 when gas was much cheaper. We are still cheaper than most of the country according to Triple A. Thanks for watching🌴

[@MidnightinSavannah]

My, my how things have changed in Savannah in a year and a half. A small 1 br apt downtown would have been under $200,000 and now runs $240,000 plus. Gas is now $3.29 a gallon, Savannah is one of the highest places for gas in the state of Georgia

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

YES, things have changed in the last year and half. We are all feeling the pinch at the pumps but, we are much better off than those on the west coast and northeast are paying. Thanks for watching!

When is the PIN, id number created for new construction. We are buying new construction at The Pines and it is under the city limits and are trying to calculate property tax? I have all the info about the house and property size.

[@84GKAllDay]

YES - So tired of living in 20 degree Boston!

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

WOW! it was sunny and 70 degrees here today! 🌴🌴🌴

[@MsSasha4444]

Boston (to our south) is rather balmy in comparison. Maineiac

[@datingsupport1428]

Rentals are HIGH. Downtown homes cost ALOT. I am from there

[@stephaniern3345]

I’m a a RN in Chicago looking to relocate to Savanna by the end of the current year 2021. My husband is in the education field. What would be a good area for us to relocate?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Thank you for what you do to help people on the front line these days! There are many great areas to live in Savannah, we can have a discussion to learn more about your needs and wants to find the best options. Thanks for watching! 🌴

[@MsSasha4444]

I would buy a house…even a car from this gentleman (if I were in the market for either). He reminds me of the plethora of great people we have met down south.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Thanks Glenn! Appreciate the kind words. I have been called a "Used Car Salesman" before on the channel. We came to visit Maine a few years ago, and want to come back. When you're ready to leave the cold NE for good, call me!

[@ExRegnar]

Sir I’m looking to start some small multifam investing /buying there once I retire from the military in the next few months. What would be the best meet-ups / places / ways to meet others to gain knowledge, insights and possible connections with? I appreciate ya

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

[@kadinethompson7454]

I love it here so much and play tourist everyday during my lunchtime.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

We have done the same. It's a great way to learn more about Savannah. The trolly tours are the best! Thanks for watching. 🌴

[@emmanuelhabte4491]

Thank you. Great look and good city

Lowest gas prices but utilities are + 9 percent... ?

[@KarinCarr]

Oh my gosh, I’ve been pronouncing Talahi wrong all this time! So embarrassing... 🤭

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

It's all good - we mispronounced "Whitemarsh" when we first moved to Savannah. Thanks for watching!

[@bawesome5039]

I want to know about the critters. Can the kids just run and play out in the woods? That's a big concern about the south. My sister's kids could never go outside, snakes and things.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

All depends on your environment around your home and what critters could be found nearby. Thanks for watching 🌴

[@johnwalters2264]

Ive seen some of your other videos too and they are very informative! Thank you! Im really wanting to relocate to Savannah from washington state. I know its best to have a job before moving but wondering how hard is it to find work there? Would it take months to find something or is it possible to find something right away?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

I'm glad they have been helpful. Thanks for watching. What industry or type of work would you be looking for? 🌴

[@johnwalters2264]

@@PhilipRandolphREALTOR I have about 20 years experience painting houses and doing historic restorations up here. Is there a lot of construction in the area? I would be open to a change though, the marine industry sounds interesting.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

There always seems to be restorations going on downtown and in the historic district. Your experience would be a great asset to a company here in Savannah and/or your own business.

[@kelvindavis1528]

Looking to relocate to the area of richmond hill. Is there major flooding in that area. Plz advise?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

We have a great resource to look at properties to determine which ones are more at RISK of flooding in the event of lots of rain or other storms (hurricanes). This would help us determine if flood insurance is REQUIRED or NOT from a mortgage company on a specific property for sale. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for watching!

[@bryantwiseguy5763]

We are looking to move in the next year or so, are you still there? We will be coming from Memphis TN.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Reach out to me by email and let's discuss your plans to move to the Savannah area - [e-mail]. Thanks for watching 🌴

[@megyndecarlo818]

Hello ! Thank you so much for your videos I’ve learned so much. I am looking to make the move down within the next two years. On average how much is property tax ??

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

That is a pretty broad question as it all depends on home you purchase and where you live. If you live in city limits of Savannah, you'll pay both county and city taxes. We can talk more specifics if you want. Thanks for watching 🌴

[@avishverma6674]

I am looking for a job in Savannah in perry lane hotel...can you tell me the average cost for living and food...at Savannah

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

What specific information are you looking for. Where are you moving from, this could help determine the difference in cost of living from your current city. Thanks for watching🌴

[@burningspears8237]

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Many options for housing based on your budget. In Savannah we have the Chatham Area Transit - CAT - Thanks for watching! 🌴

[@burningspears8237]

@@PhilipRandolphREALTOR geat i'll search about all of that! Thank you for your time

[@YeYozWayYo]

The CAT bus system is terrible compared to other major cities I strong recommend you do NOT take the public bus in Savannah unless you absolutely need to.

[@tamekkaknuth9612]

It's gorgeous!!

Thanks for watching 🌴

[@GTPhan]

Is Pooler and Savannah GA located in flood zone during hurricane/storm season? Thanks

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Great question. There are different Flood Zones throughout Savannah and into Pooler. It's a really broad question - we just have to look at the flood maps when looking a properties determine the amount of risk, if any for those properties. Thanks for watching 🌴

[@bawesome5039]

Are there house boats to buy?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Not in the Savannah area.

[@oliviagrant-deal1430]

What about rent? How much is it for a studio apt or one bedroom apt?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Olivia Grant-Deal - all depends on location and amenities offered. Rentcafe.com suggest the average rent is $1,479 for average size of 966 sf. (as of FEB 2022) Thanks for watching 🌴

[@thornbird6768]

What’s the apartment rental market like ?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

rentcafe.com suggest that the average rent for an apartment is around $1,200.00/month. Of course this will vary or differ based on where in Savannah you live. Downtown, the islands, south side, Pooler, etc. Thanks for watching 🌴

[@carolyngriffin7214]

Extremely high a 1,200 1 bedroom is almost non existent. Watch out for scammers on Facebook and craigslist posting places they dont own, there are lots of them.

[@gordonharris7020]

Do Pooler or Georgetown flood?

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

Being on the coast, all areas of Savannah including Pooler and Georgetown have their own areas at risk for flooding. Some more than others. If you have something specific, we can look at using a great resource we have to look at flood maps. Send me an email and we can show some examples. [e-mail]. Thanks for watching! 🌴

[@carolyngriffin7214]

I moved here from the west and this is not true right now, housing is very high, low inventory, poor quality. Home owners insurance is triple what I paid. No title company, must have attorney do title search. I could go on and on.

[@PhilipRandolphREALTOR]

That video was true at the time of filming in May 2020, before the world went crazy and inflation had hit our economy. Thanks for watching🌴

[@marielajamesrawlinson2429]

Any airforce or army base ?
