Charlotte is the best place to live in America according to Relocate-America.com
I feel that all of us in the real estate business have been drenched by fear that the negative media spreads like wildfire. I want to point out that there is positive news that isn’t getting as much press.
For example, take worker productivity in the U.S. It jumped by 2.2 percent in the latest quarter - and that was on top of a 1.8 percent gain the quarter before. Why is that significant for real estate? Because rising productivity generally points to lower inflation, and lower inflation fears help keep interest rates low helping buyers!
In addition, Charlotte, N.C., leads Relocate-America.com’s annual ranking of the top 100 cities. Apparently, there’s just something about North Carolina. For the second year in a row, America’s best city in which to live lies within its borders, according to Relocate-America.com’s annual list.
This year, Charlotte, NC is in the top spot, the site announced late last week. Last year’s winner was Asheville, which slipped to No. 7 on this year’s list.
“North Carolina is very active on our radar,” said Steve Nickerson, president and CEO of HomeRoute. “It continues to get a flood of interest from all over.”
HomeRoute is the real-estate firm that operates Relocate-America.com, a source of community information and real-estate resources for people who are relocating. Each year, the site ranks the top 100 places to live in the country.
Areas need to be nominated on the site in order to be eligible for the list; more than 2,000 were nominated this year, Nickerson said.
