Clearly there are people that would never survive in the southeast US, however many of us do.
What's your experience with humidity @Randyzzz ?
With global warming maybe you are in the utopia. All I know is my dads family was from G Rapids and my parents got out about 65 years ago. Winter was one of 2 reasons.Dude, lived in east central VA (Richmond) until college and then in Durham for 5 years.
Been there. Done that. Won’t go back after figuring out what four real seasons feel like.
That’s the wrong side of the state. They got all the lake effect snow.With global warming maybe you are in the utopia. All I know is my dads family was from G Rapids and my parents got out about 65 years ago. Winter was one of 2 reasons.
Nice, but considerably out of my price range. I’m hoping to pay cash or at least close.
I was waiting for you to replyCouldn’t give me the house and property and pay my taxes to get me to live full-time east of about Hickory after leaving NC.
I’m more than a little worried that you’ll sell and go to find a new place before July-August when it’s utterly inhumane to be in NC.
Sucks to hear about Michigan![]()
I like the shop on this property-Well if that doesn't scream 'Randy' I don't know what will.....



All nice choices. Property there is much cheaper than near me. That first place would be $1,000,000 near me.I like the shop on this property-

God's country. You don't know what you're missing.With global warming maybe you are in the utopia. All I know is my dads family was from G Rapids and my parents got out about 65 years ago. Winter was one of 2 reasons.
Sometimes it's just plain luck.I'm with Neil on that one. I would be looking at Eastern Tennessee like Pigeon Forge or some place close to the border of North Carolina due to Tennessee's lack of a state income tax.
Then again, I'm no real estate investment genius. We were buying a cabin on a lake in Eastern Tennessee when covid hit. We were able to back out due to the lock downs (the seller even offered to pay our closing costs if we finalised). I was certain we would have a correction then due to the lock downs..... I was paying $185,000. It would easily be with twice that now.
I'm with you're thinking.I know it’s been a decade since the last time I passed through Pigeon Forge, but their 6 lane hiway reminded me of LA, Houston or Atlanta at 5 pm. Maybe things have changed.
