    The MacGregor area of Cary has a lot of houses that might be a few decades old, but they have been completely renovated PLUS they have large lots and mature trees. New construction generally has NO trees.

  • @nothingman27511
    @nothingman27511 14 днів тому

    North Raleigh is where everybody wants to be?? That's funny. The RADON capital of the east coast. If you drive down streets named LEAD MINE Road and ROCK QUARRY Road to get to your house, that's a bit of a red flag. Any WHY does someone want to live near the airport and listen to airplane noise all the time??

  • @nothingman27511
    @nothingman27511 15 днів тому

    The main way to differentiate the two main parts of Cary are the MacGregor side of town and the Preston side of town. The MacGregor side has easy access to RALEIGH, most of the major medical facilities including the hospital, more native Southerners, the new downtown area, much less property crime, but the houses and shops are maybe not as new and shiny as the Preston side. The Preston side has easy access to RTP & DURHAM (but a large percentage of Preston folks who need to get to Raleigh daily have to cut through the MacGregor side), more Northern transplants, more property crime, generally shinier buildings than the MacGregor side, but smaller lots and less mature trees that have been around for a century or more. Take your pick, but as a native Southerner, the choice is obvious.

    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

      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.
