Buying A House

The Carolinas is one of the most popular relocation destinations. More recently, there has been an increase in people moving to the Carolinas from all over the United States. If you are thinking about making the move yourself but are still wondering if it is worthwhile, consider the following benefits.

Reasons to Move to The Carolinas

Some people like the quiet of the country, while others like the busyness of the city. Regardless of preference, you can find a good combination of both in the Carolinas—the charm of a small town while having easy access to a big city.

Whether you are a businessperson, a farmer, a beach lover, or a Bohemian, you will find a city in the Carolinas to fit your lifestyle.

How Much Will it Cost?

Often, a reason for people’s apprehension in moving to a new state is the cost of the move and the cost of living.

You will be happy to know that in places like Raleigh median income is very much in line with the rest of the United States. If you choose an area such as Raleigh or Durham in the surrounding towns you will find affordable mortgage rates. North Carolina, in particular, is considered an affordable housing market, but also boasts high-end locales for those with more expensive taste.

The Scenic Beauty

In the Carolinas, you can enjoy some of the best weather in the United States year-round.

Though the summers can get hot and the winters cold, there is much beautiful country to explore in the Carolinas. From Mount Mitchell and  Rock State, to Grandfather State and the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina, and Charleston’s Historic District to Myrtle Beach in South Carolina, there is no shortage of scenic destinations and routes.

Schools in The Carolinas

If you’re moving with your family and have school-aged children, the Carolinas have some of the best public schools in the country for kids.
Public, private, magnet, and charter schools have average-to-high rankings compared to the rest of the country. In other words, no matter your preference,  there are good options for  education, particularly in the more densely-populated areas of North Carolina, such as Charlotte.

Start Packing

The Carolinas have become a hotspot for relocation in recent years due to its easy lifestyle, great outdoors, good schools, and affordable cost of living. However, navigating through home purchases and/or refinancing is as cumbersome as it is anywhere in the U.S. This is where Mecklenburg Mortgage can help.
