I work for the power company in simpsonville sc which is Greenville county. About 2 years ago we couldn’t keep up installing power with how fast new developments went up and sold. This has drastically changed since 2023. A lot of the developments have many houses move in ready with nobody buying. And price cuts haven’t helped . I cover a big area so I see the Chang on a large area. Definitely coming down! Thanks for all the videos 🙏

Good insight. I mostly just follow the finance industry and the debt instrument structure. Institutional private finance is propping it up, but they will be buying up a lot of new. The main issue is because owning for the elderly is becoming to unstable with insurance and taxes exploding. Renting is a non-commitment option for the elderly. They can have enough savings for the higher rental costs up front, but they can bail pretty quick when the rent goes up. They are retired, so location is flexible. Ten thousand a day of basically leasing America. Sounds and looks like the global finance agenda is on track to a much different future here in the U.S. just a matter of time till the investment big players push the little ones out. Think of it like pharmacies, grocers, and main streets. The independents were and are continuing to be crushed by Wall Street. What does your nation look like when your government only caters to the 1%? Puerto Rico🎯 Almost 50% hovering around poverty. That is what we see taking hold here, every year worse, with no government oversight to what kind of nation institutional private finance is creating. A sad retreat into a purely gilded age.

We are leaving Wilmington as fast as we can. We have lived here for three years to be near our family when my husband worked remote. I grew up in Brunswick county and sadly a lot of the developments going up are poor quality in my opinion. My husband took a new position and can no longer work remote but I'm fine with that. We will move back to central NC area where we lived for 20 years prior to our move. Being a nurse also the healthcare is less to be desired in Wilmington. Due to the growth, people can wait up to 10 months to see a healthcare specialist. The reputation of the local hospital is not highly regarded. Also the insurance companies wanted to raise the home insurance this year in some areas here as high as 99%. The NC insurance Commissioner said no but if NC follows the trends in California and Florida, I think major insurance companies will eventually pull out of NC coastal areas due to high risk. Things to consider when you move to an area. You need to really research it to see if the quality of life is there. I seen so much growth with little thought to the infrastructure here in Wilmington and it is starting to show.

Stay safe. Thanks Travis. I'm in Florida. West Coast 45 minutes north of Tampa the home prices have skyrocketed since we are on the western coast line. Small town feel in Citrus County. Been here for 23 years and the prices are just nuts. All insurances from homeowners ,car and health care have increased. Duke Energy is no sweet deal either. Garbage haulaway has increased and there is no industry just service jobs. The permits being pulled in the county are numerous. Cant get into see a doctor for two months and everywhere you go lines of people at the store as one register and multiple self check-out lanes which people are not interested in. The area has become consumed with high end buyers wanting to knockdown the current homes and build mini mansions on the lot lines. There are lots of retirement folks no longer interested in staying. Where to go? I placed my home in FSBO at an elevated rate and will move when the pay me to do so. New hotels coming the roads have been updated and we even have electric car hook ups at Wawa. I'm not overly concerned with the influx but I am concerned with what type of community it will become!

You are already seeing this in the grocery store lines. They don’t have and can’t get the help they need because a person who makes $15 an hour isn’t going to drive 30 miles to work. And that’s especially in FL, where a person making $15 an hour may not be able to afford the insurance on a car at all. Personally, I have a lot of convenience where I live now. I am seriously considering an RV so I can just roam around until I find what I really want.

Investors like yourself are difficult to work with most of the time. But that is not all investors. It's a different mindset, than the average consumer. Because of my experience in both Mortgage and Real Estate, I carry an investor mindset with all my clients. I look at the money, not the fluff. If I feel that I have supporting evidence that the price is wrong or the money is wrong, I tell my clients. On the other hand, I don't have the fluffy language that sometimes is needed. It's the money and budget first, then the home. If it all fits, i feel good about what I am doing. It gets wild sometimes with the offers from an investor and it's no place for chickens. The way it is approached is everything. I take an investors demand and short language and formulate a way to present it to get the results we are looking for.

@@thebucketlisttripoutwest8487 I’m not a real estate investor. I have bought and sold about 15 properties. But I’m just looking for the next place to live. My last properties I paid cash for. I 100% percent believe that a realtor who is a buyers agent should be paid out of pocket by the buyer. And the realtor sellers agent should be paid 100% out of pocket by the seller. Those two Transactions should never ever be on the same ticket. It’s a massive conflict of interest.

The Wilmington area is a touristy area. So perhaps all the rentals are hopefully for the mostly seasonal workers who can’t afford to purchase?

I knew you'd eventually get confronted by a "Karen". Well, I guess in this case a "Daren". Lol

Thanks for coming to Wilmington. I have conversed with you before. I see you did get your Part 107 license. I feel like I am a lone wolf here. I carry a real estate license and a mortgage license. I live in Wilmington. The realtors just do not like me because I speak the truth. You missed a subdivision or two that could be a little help. One is on Sidbury road with 1400 homes. Every realtor here says that there are bidding wars. There are not. They don't listen when I tell them the situation we are in. Your partner has added a lot. I wanted to thank you for doing this video. Please give me a shout if you come back.

All the areas he mentioned at the beginning are in Brunswick County and not Wilmington. 🤷🏻♀️ And it’s Bo-liv-e-a…..not ball-I-ve-a 😅 We left Brunswick County (Leland) in 2021. They are destroying all the trees and land all for $$$$$.

Ugh. I guess maybe if you are retired and just HAVE to move to that area…..and it’s the only way….. This is why so many of us like the 1980s-2000 built homes.

Wilmington is a retirement community, also easy access for people from Raleigh or Fayetteville for second homes by the beach. Your retirement pool is not just people that don’t want to retire to Florida. NC has a lot of military bases especially in eastern NC, so you can retire and still have easy access to the military bases with your healthcare access and the commissary and exchange. We live north of Wilmington. All of eastern NC is a great place to retire. We also in this area have easy access to the Raleigh area for some of the best healthcare in the country. I had surgery at Duke a few years ago and had one of the top surgeons and researcher for my condition.

You might cover more if there are nearby amenities, rec centers, shopping, etc. Driving far for daily activities is sad. In many of these developments one can’t walk or bike to anything, etc.
