We looked near ashville and were finding New construction with 4 bedrooms 2.5 baths and 2 car garage on a manicured acre for $250,000. ( here that will get you a run down shack)

Are next vaca is gonna be down there to see what the job market and surroundings are like.

If we buy here we are gonna go duplex to help with the mortgage...we dont like 70-120 year old houses so 3 levels are out.

If you have no limits on money then I wouldnt live anywhere but here....love the 4 seasons and as long as you have 4 wheel drive and a kid to shovel your driveway then I wouldnt trade fall in New England for anyplace save a few diving destinations.
I do dig boston....but ur correct brotha....on my salary I would be on the southside in a shack
