Hey everyone, I’m in Pittsburgh now but considering moving to the Cary/Raleigh/Chapel Hill area.Looking to get locals’ opinions on the livability/quality of life of the area, as well as the local investing scene.We’d like to rent at first, understand the area, then hopefully buy an off market or rehab property to live in, make into what we want, and at least break even or have equity in it.We’re interested in living in walkable/bikeable areas with good schools and relatively low costs of living.Does that exist?

Cary

I believe Curtis was referring to a site like this: www.huduser.org/datasets/metro.htmlI found that rents vary quite dramatically within some MSA (specifically the Raleigh-Cary MSA) even when holding property characteristics (sq.ft., bedroom count, property age, etc.) constant.

PS My car is a 2013 Acura with 120,000 miles on it.

Especially we are looking at Winston-Salem and Greensboro, and also any upcoming suburbs near Raleigh/Cary areas,  which are not yet that expensive as Cary(<175K for SFR).

My family and I are moving to Cary NC, and we are looking for a good realtor to help us find a good SFR. 

If they do not want to get rid of the dog and do not want to move by April 1st , then the eviction process will be started the minute they have their dog for 20 days, and his car is still in the driveway with a noncompliance, and he's still smoking upstairs.

St Johns, St Augustine, most all of county, Clay County flaming Island, near River, Nassau County Yulee, Duval near Town Center , or downtown...im a rehabber, flipper, newly licensed Fl rockin it..love it... im holding in Cary, and Briercreek (raleigh) NC too...i love that too...NC, SC, Ga are awesome as a possum...

I grew up in Cary so I've called the Triangle home my entire life. 

As far as where to live I would recommend (depending on where you work) the Brier Creek area of NW Raleigh, most of the area along Glennwood Ave or just about anywhere in Cary is nice too.
