The old economy moved me to my dream location -- Hokie Chris 02/18/2021 11:22AM
Anyone looking at moving to a dream destination given the rise in telework? -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 08:46AM
I have friends who live in the lower keys, and own a vacation place... -- EDGEMAN 02/18/2021 10:59AM
Hellz to the yes - southern Utah -- Happy Dog 02/18/2021 10:24AM
I've thought about Utah and Montana also ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 10:28AM
Montana has become very expensive.... -- BusLoadaBozos 02/18/2021 11:01AM
St George is awesome -- Happy Dog 02/18/2021 10:44AM
Are you implying that Richmond is not a "dream" destination? ** -- Gobble Gobble 02/18/2021 09:34AM
Happiness isn't a destination, obviously :) I was just curious if anyone -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:36AM
Did that two years ago...living the dream now. ;) -- Vtskier1 02/18/2021 09:24AM
Did that 20 years ago, not Roanoke but similar. Best decision ever. ** -- RTFC 02/18/2021 09:43AM
There is simply no advantage to NoVA by any measure for anything. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 02/18/2021 09:28AM
Living in NOVA takes years off your life -- EDGEMAN 02/18/2021 10:57AM
That's my thought...great for the resume, but challenging in other ways. ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 11:18AM
But great for young single educated people -- EDGEMAN 02/18/2021 11:43AM
I've been working from home since 1984. Therefore I have no idea. -- PhotoHokieNC 02/18/2021 09:21AM
Yeah sure, and also looking to buy Apple and Amazon stock right now -- darnellm 02/18/2021 09:17AM
Uhm...the point is that remote areas are still priced well ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:19AM
I know your point -- darnellm 02/18/2021 09:23AM
Ha, I'm not sure the stripes ref applies to me. -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:26AM
One problem is remote areas also have sketchy internet. ** -- VTJayLaw 02/18/2021 09:21AM
They do, but I also see that as a short term problem -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:25AM
Don't lie- we are just getting running water- stay home everyone ** -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:27AM
Exactly... it's very bad here, stay there in the rat rac...ur,.... utopia ** -- RTFC 02/18/2021 09:49AM
You think that the local people can't spot suckers -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:20AM
If they truly go telework they will move it to India -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:08AM
I've been looking at panama on the pac side ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:13AM
Yep, be careful what you wish for, you may get it... -- `lag 02/18/2021 09:12AM
They do it for Corporate Tax already -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:17AM
You got room for all of us? ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2021 09:07AM
Kiawah! In fact, I'll be down there in 3 weeks.** -- Stork 02/18/2021 08:58AM
Like HokieDan95, we plan to retire somewhere near Charleston and could move -- vt90 02/18/2021 08:55AM
My cousin has lived in Charleston since 80's and says changes -- turkeywinghokie 02/18/2021 10:05AM
Likewise, looking to retire there in the next year -- Hoke 02/18/2021 09:47AM
You should compare those areas in July/August if you aren't a fan of -- McLovin 02/18/2021 12:02PM
Depending on how close you are to the coast makes a big difference. -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 12:25PM
Definitely agree with your point -- Hoke 02/18/2021 12:15PM
That's what we did in 2014....buy a lot and build -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 10:13AM
Thanks good advice. Any architects or builders you would recommend? ** -- Hoke 02/18/2021 10:15AM
In Folly, there is a local modular named Paul Lauer. He's done a lot -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 10:27AM
Charleston Population has exploded and highways can't handle it ** -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:08AM
Charleston about 25-30 years ago was perfect...had all the charm and great -- Tuckahokie 02/18/2021 09:20AM
Highways are fine, I26/526/17 are nothing compared to the nova traffic -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:12AM
Ok- but the reason people don't live in DC is get away from it -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:19AM
Sure, my OP was remote areas, not Charleston. I was just pointing out that -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:22AM
I agree- i'm sure its way better than DC- but it's not -- bigbadbird 02/18/2021 09:26AM
Beaufort is a great area, tough to go wrong in the low country ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:07AM
Check out Sun City near Hilton Head, about 2 hours south of Charleston -- HokieForever 02/18/2021 09:06AM
My mom and stepdad live there -- statmanfromHCyrs 02/18/2021 09:09AM
Thanks - will add that to the list. ** -- vt90 02/18/2021 09:09AM
We are doing the exact same thing. Started looking right around Xmas. -- RhinoVT 02/18/2021 09:04AM
Same happened to a neighbor and Hokie friend. Was on the road when it sold -- Burke Hokie 02/18/2021 09:11AM
Yeah - lots of people with the same grate idea. -- vt90 02/18/2021 09:06AM
Ugh!! just changed my mind ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2021 09:00AM
There goes the neighborhood! ** -- vt90 02/18/2021 09:02AM
We are all coming to Folly Beach!! ** -- Femoyer Hokie 02/18/2021 08:55AM
Folly Beach is awesome. Love Taco Boy! But I don't think I would want to -- vt90 02/18/2021 09:03AM
My son and I hit Taco Boy every time we're down there. ** -- Stork 02/18/2021 09:12AM
Fyi, taco boy moved to the location where Wiki Wiki was...and vice versa ** -- Folly Beach Hokie 02/18/2021 09:14AM
I still wear a T-shirt I got from there. Food is very good and the ... -- vt90 02/18/2021 09:13AM
One can go very remote now... with the new Starlink system, there -- HokieSignGuy 02/18/2021 08:52AM

Yup. Wife and I have been looking into Mt Pleasant ** -- Stork 02/18/2021 09:02AM
OK, your Kiawah mention above is pretty dead in the off-season -- statmanfromHCyrs 02/18/2021 09:08AM
Exactly. -- Stork 02/18/2021 09:11AM
It's a shame St. Patrick's Day will still be somewhat subdued this year. -- vthokieq 02/18/2021 09:50AM
Nice for a week, maybe, but not all the time (IMO) -- statmanfromHCyrs 02/18/2021 09:13AM
