Moving to North Carolina from NJ, worth it?

[John Conlon]

Hey guys! John here from NJ. My family is planning on moving to Franklin County area (preferably Franklinton/Louisburg) in the coming months. This is a big move for us since it's our first out of state. We love NJ but it's time to go, this state is expensive with tons of competition. I will be transferring my RE license to NC and would love to connect with all professions in our great community. Also, would love to know where the REI meetups are. So, I've been reading and hearing about the market and future growth of NC. I don't even live there yet and I feel there's tons of opportunities. Am I wrong? also, how is everyone doing with fix-n-flipping in the areas mentioned above? Any other areas you suggest?
