Part 2 : Driving Distance to the Other Side of the future Tiny Home Community, the Hospital & More

[@Breezyquarters1]

We are proud of Abbeville. Thank y’all for being so kind and showing us off

[@carolschristiancottage42477]

Since this is your town, may I ask if the crime rate is as bad as reported? When I looked you guys up this is what I found, and I quote, "With a crime rate of 35 per one thousand residents, Abbeville has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 28". Being a senior citizen, this is concerning for me.

[@teanajohnson5311]

I saw the same video you did, and was wondering the same thing… Maybe that was just a person Giving their opinion would also like to know if the the statistics are real

[@janiefox3458]

It is a lovely town, similar to the nearest town up here in West Virginia. I was stationed at Ft. Gordon in Augusta for a couple years and loved that area -- but I see more history in Abbeville (wish I love).

[@donnadiesburg7451]

Seems like people who live here are nice! Not woke. I love the cleanliness.

[@donnadiesburg7451]

​@teana johnson, thank you so much for checking on this. It makes a big difference.

[@shirleywhite708]

So convenient if you have a road open for easy access to hospital 🏥 for seniors. A lot of seniors think of that in considering where they will be living.

[@denisekoenig9479]

This is true but will the senior community that's already there want all of the traffic and such coming through their quiet little area

[@denisekoenig9479]

Ok right after I typed this you spoke about it so nm lol

[@SoulMaeven]

Randy this is what we all wanted to hear- that it won’t be a straight grid and that the houses will be limited! This has the potential to be the most beautiful and quaint tiny home property! ❤❤❤

[@alisonastair777]

I agree with you completely! I just wanted what did property but I’ve always dreamed of living in a small town where I could walk to stores. This town is just perfect and it sounds like he’s going to design it uniquely the way he did the mountains. Thank you Randy and Amanda for always thinking of others. And reaching out to change peoples lives ! ❤️❤️

[@arleen12]

You could offer a southern porch option on the homes to make them fit with the old world charm of the town.

[@michaelclark4357]

Reference Southern Porch Scenes -> Classic Andy Griffith Show episode - "Man In A Hurry" about an impatient fast paced man whose expensive car breaks down in Mayberry/Abbeville S.C. circa 1960's on Sunday when the town is basically closed.

[@Uncommonsensesc]

I've heard rumors where Northern homes have porches. :)

[@MagnoliaEmporium]

The great thing about the mayor there is he has a strong background in construction so he can easily see the vision for ITH... as a matter of fact the company he works for, their offices are just in Matthews outside of Charlotte near me..

Saw him speaking on some news reports ... he seems like a great guy who cares about this little town and her residents.

[@Faithful525]

Lovely, and nice quiet neighbors! Ace approved 😍 YES, winding roads through the community that follow the terrain. YES! I love the idea of having only ITH Model Homes around the outside perimeter of the land here, so our community blends in with the historic character of the town. Have the modern homes and I-boxes inside the property. And this is affordable for a vacation home, or seasonal getaway, too. Full time living or part time.

[@sandymclemore538]

I might come back to NH for the summer, lol.

[@timeforchange3786]

That sounds good. It would be nice to have different sections. For example, a Woody line, Abingdon (cottage look), etc in one section. Maybe a southern homes sections in the colors of the town, light yellow, white, two story, a porch with columns (similar to what you have seen at home depot), a section for homes like the Birmingham and Charleston, and section for the incrediboxes. It would make it look orderly.

[@MamaLlama007]

Would love to see a tiny home community near Raleigh, NC - International airport for retirees/traveling. You're doing great things!!

Amanda and Randy, thank you so much for doing a fantastic job showing the town and property! I cannot believe how convenient everything is especially the hospital! My friend and I have our money in for two lots! We are so excited to move there in the future. We tried several times to purchase lots in Newport, but different events made it impossible… but maybe it’s because we were meant to live on this property!! I so hope it will happen!!!

[@michaelclark4357]

Keep in mind that it will take some time in phases to gradually slowly get each phase & section ready so the last part(1/3 or 1/2) may very well be in 2024.

[@suzonlommel3737]

A town like this that can support 2 big libraries is my kind of town. What a beautiful town it is, and saving on living gives us the means to buy locally. I'm so very much in.

[@cathyhill2965]

I'm so happy y'all are here in Abbeville. Y'all don't know what this means to me! You truly don't Randy and Amanda. I knew I wanted to buy a home from you but the one thing that always got me in the gut is that I couldn't move to TinyTown. Now y'all are here planning on creating a ITH community here! Seriously! If I can just run into you or Amanda I'd probably give you the biggest hug ever!!! I'd even give Ace a hug. He's so dang cute. Anyhoo.... Just a bit of reference (my jaw dropped btw when I watched this to see just how close the land really is to me) the 4 corners, CVS & BK; across from them is Abbeville Medical Center (or as I call 'em Family Medicine) & Abbeville Administration Building (town planning,taxes, etc); across from them(Center St.) Savitz Pharmacy (small town pharmacy) across from them is Pizza Hut. Down Center St. on the corner is the nursing home but if you notice the building they pass with the sign UCMAC...United Christian Ministries of Abbeville County... among a few other things they offers services to help those who for whatever reasons don't have medical insurance. Then the Senior center. When they are at that intersection, instead of turning right going back to town square, turn left and go straight on Hwy 72 for about 30 - 40 min and you will cross the GA/SC state line. In a way Abbeville is in the middle!! It's awesome. One way to GA., 45 min to Anderson,SC & Interstate 85 (can take you to ATL 2 hrs 30 min) another way, yet another way an hour drive to Greenville. Charlotte, NC is almost 3 hrs drive another way.

[@Faithful525]

How far of a drive to an ocean beach? I can see miles on the map, but that doesn't always translate well to time to drive it. I'm leaving Oregon to come out there, and know I'll want to take day trips to the ocean from time to time. Thanks for all the detailed info, and for the warm welcome! Oh, any good Thai or Korean or Sushi restaurants in Abbeville???

[@cathyhill2965]

@@Faithful525 Hi, the ocean beaches like Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, Folly Beach, Edisto Beach SC are all going to be between 3 1/2 to 4 hrs. Myrtle Beach, SC is 4 1/2 hrs. So the ocean beaches would be more of a weekend getaway. However there are lakes & rivers in between. As far Asian cuisine, none really in Abbeville. Greenwood yes but I'm not a sushi fan so I wouldn't know. I've asked a friend but until then maybe someone else can share.

Can't find that these days. My daughter lives in Charlestown, SC and I'd like to be close to her for Sunday evening dinner, so I looked into the drive times and it's about 3 1/2 hours' drive not 1 1/2 hours as they said in this video unfortunately. Isle of Palms is absolutely gorgeous, and it's located on the coast @ 30 minutes outside of Charleston SC Historic District. It's the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. I'm considering this little historic town though. Maybe I will open an interior design antique boutique. I'd pay up if it was closer to the beach and Charleston so let's get them to look closer to the coast as their next piece of land development. I have a feeling this project will sell out fast.

My only son/child died in 2010 and I have horrible bouts of depression. It doesn’t help being lonely and no family anymore that I want to have anything to do with. My friend and I will be moving to this location. We tried to move to Newport but lots sol fast so we missed out. I have friends in Oregon and said it is getting so bad there with crime etc. Think about moving to this location I think you will have fun and meet some new friends.

Randy, My husband and I are waiting for a place to open up in Tennessee tiny town. But, if you can create a tiny town here in Pennsylvania- I'll write ✍️ you a check right now 😊!!!

[@lauriegladden6887]

Me too. The only thing for them to think about is the taxes are horrendous where I live in PA. We have about 3 1/2 acres wooded and property tax is $1500 a year but the school tax is $4000 a year. They're taxing seniors out of their homes here in SE York county.

[@araina5896]

@@lauriegladden6887 😂 omg Laurie, I'm also in York, pa. Yes, the taxes are insane around here, as well as the home prices for what you get now.. Not sure if it's possible for your property but if you could sell a piece of a useable acre or even a half, the husband and I would be interested.

[@lauriegladden6887]

@sweetness6500 I live about 5 miles by road from Harford county MD just west of the Susquehanna river right close to Peach Bottom Nuclear Power plant. Still pretty rural area but people from MD are being driven up here as people from the city have moved into eastern Harford county. Unfortunately the people around here keep voting in the same township supervisors which just ticks me off. The state reps just don't do much at all for the school taxes which for us is about $4000 and property tax is about $1500. The people around here don't want businesses moving in to help with taxes. The school board is a joke and they spend our tax dollars frivolously like putting in a astroturf field for the high school which they didn't need and that stuff has been known to cause cancer in young atheletes.

[@lauriegladden6887]

@araina5896 OMG! I've been trying to talk my mom into selling about 2 acres. The only thing is we are on a pretty steep hill in the woods. If you're interested in not having a big yard to take care of it could work. We're a Delta address but live in Peach Bottom township. We're also at the end of the road and it's pretty quiet here except for the neighbors on the other side of the valley. They love fireworks and shooting guns but that's pretty common around this whole area. It's not all the time though...lol

[@michaelclark4357]

If you want that to happen, you'll have to widen your search there, get others involved & check out numerous possiblities & town & county powers that be. ITH doesn't have the time, people or money to check out any possibly viable properties. If its to be, its up to you to be it.

I am surprised they don't have a community in Rogersville, TN. It has an adorable main street with a delicious restaurant with a waterfall, land is cheap. The Walmart is close by. I stayed in the Hale Hotel around Christmas and fell in love.

[@timeforchange3786]

@@Swim136 true, but Rogersville is an extremely historical Tennessee town. Davy Crockett's ancestors are buried there. The Hale Springs Inn had 3 Presidents stay there. It has the 2nd oldest court house in Tennessee. It is home of Melungeons, a tri-racial group of people who tried to avoid discrimination of other areas. Both the Union and Confederates were stationed there during the war. They even have a crazy story about "Wild Bill" Sizemore. Every October they have a historical festival. I would think the town would be thankful for someone to bring a community of people to their town to help preserve the history. Just a thought.

I love this property. I love that there is no brush to clear out. I like the fact that medical facilities and doctor offices within walking distance. Would the homeowner be paying for transport from the factory to Abbeville and if so what would the approximate cost? Congratulations on closing on the Nevada property.

[@lynetteayala531]

I would like to know what the size of each lot will be.

I’m sure the will be a good size hopefully around 50x60. I think I heard him say that they will be the size of the Forest lots.

I've sent messages weeks ago about my friend's property that she wants to develop in northern NV. No response yet, so I hope it's getting put thru to the right people.

[@michaelclark4357]

First she needs to check with the county and any other powers that be to see what is & might be available to do there. It certainly needs a good reliable supply of water. Notice that even with a good reliable water well with good water rights, ITH is limited to 50 residential off grid lots. When they put in another well with water rights I'm sure they can expand that to 100 residential off grid lots. There's is being approved by the state engineer in conjunction with the county water district.
