    Hi! Thanks for the video. I too came here for the nature! What has been hardest for me is 1) the traffic where we live is really terrible (Wake Forest area); I've really been shocked at how difficult it is to get around here, and with things so spread out that is simple much harder than I thought it was going to be; 2) Yes, there are nice restaurants, but I'm having trouble finding high-quality mid-priced ake-out options (Thai, Chinese) which I wasn't expecting with a city of this size; 3) I wasn't expecting it to be cheaper than Maryland necessarily, but wow, some things seem to be more expensive (health care, some restaurants, etc). The first two seem hardest for me in terms of livability. Other things like the snakes, roaches don't bother me at all!

      Cost was around $1k or so a year so you can make that back in a weekend honestly. I only did nights and weekends sometimes just weekends. Startup costs are all the exams the hours spent on courses the fees. So due to the time it takes to become a realtor I would make sure you plan to do something with it for long enough that it was worth you going through all that. For me a little more than 2 years and that was worth it for sure

    What's happening in Raleigh (Wake County) is dayum shame. It's really unaffordable to a lot of people that's been here all their life. Alot of the local people dont want to be compared to Austin about anything. High cost of living and bad traffic.

    • @realtorbenjamincarver
      @realtorbenjamincarver Місяць тому

      Raleigh is one of the top 5 places people are leaving Austin to move to, believe it or not. Growth has its pains but also creates jobs, builds equity in houses for homeowners, and gives the city more money to invest in businesses, parks, and things to do.

      I agree, if you're going to buy new construction. Have a good and reputable inspector that is _not_ recommended by your realtor and builder (cuz conflict of interest lol) that will inspect your house from the foundation up to the roof. Also get a good lawyer to help read over the contract & negotiate the terms to your favor. A LOT of NC builders have bs causes that will screw you if you don't read between the lines and don't do your multistage inspections. Binge of youtube inspection videos and when the inspector does his inspections, be on-site with them if you can. To pairs of eyes are better than one.

Just a bunch of shops and some random eateries, with some bars. I dont see the point? I mean if you are into the mall experience then that place is for you. Basically you live in a mall. I am not into that. That is all North Hills is... A BIG MALL with apartment buildings sorrounding it..they threw in a hotel or two and a movie theatre. That is all it is. So if you into shopping and have the money to shop everyday then fine. I much prefer the old downtown.. nice and easy walkable place... for random strolls.. nice parks. If you must shop there is shopping among museums and theatres... lots of places to eat if you need to be eating out all the time. I like it..
