Currently you are seeing a lot discrepancy between paychecks and cost of living. My grandparents love to tell me how I make more starting out than they ever made in their life. They also tell me about buying Cokes for 5 cents and hot dogs for a dime. Cars for $1200-$2500 and houses for $5000-$7500. Yes I do make more but the discrepancy is large.
I don’t know how anyone starting out is affording the ridiculous rent prices. Must make a lot more money than I do!
I knew I couldn’t swing 700+ for rent or all I’d do every month is just pay bills
Instead of driving a nice newer truck I kept driving older vehicles and bought a piece of land even though I can’t afford to build on it right now but it’s a little honey hole for deer hunting until I can then we bought a very old small house for cheap and just fixed it up to where it’s livable, it’s not much and honestly a little rough around the edges but no darn rent payment and I can do whatever I want to it
The rent is equally if not even higher out here in rural WV, very few rentals available and they are in high demand. I’ve saw single wide trailers for 1000 a month utilities not included.

Not that simple, you can't enforce illegal clauses.Short answer if it is in the lease it is enforceable. If it ain't in the lease it ain't enforceable. Anything else is bull.
If that’s how she wants to draw up the lease it’s legal. She can add anything in the lease it’s up to your friend or another tenant to agree to it. If I’m wrong I apologize but I think it’s totally legal for her to do that.So I have a buddy who is planning on moving out of his moms place. First time moving out, he's 22. Being a novice at all that, the guy called me to ask a question about NC renter laws and I just don't know the answer to it. He's dead set on moving into a place near his grandparents. It's a really nice looking place, 3 bedroom, 2 bath with a full garage and basement. They are asking $900 a month for it. Which ain't bad at all. But, the guy wanted one of his friends, whom works as a representative for Pepsi, I say that to show that he makes good money. Good solid guy. Anyway, she told him that if anyone over 18 moves in with him to help pay the rent, she would charge each person an extra $350 in rent. Is this normal practice? Is it legal? I mean, the way I see it, if your paying the initially stated price, what's the deal? It's not like there moving in a family, it's ONE more guy. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
And your dad also didn't have a cell phone bill, data plan, internet service provider, or cable tv/dish net.THIS!
I hear the same exact shtick from my dad, grandparent, etc. ALL DAY long. My dad would tell me stories how he was moved out at 16. He also said that the double wide he was living in was $25 a week......
I doubt many in NC know how cheap you can get land or quality home in that area go couple counties over in Dickinson and gets even cheaper. Of course you gotta find job to pay for itMy Sister in law lives just across the line in Tazewell Va. She is relocating for work and is trying to sell her house.
2200 Sq ft Brick ranch on a full basement with 6 acres.
Tax appraisal is $67,000.
Buying a smaller modular, around 1680 sq ft, and putting it on 2 acres that they bought near Bland Va.
That modular is costing them $90,000. AFTER they’ve had the grading done, installed a septic tank and drilled a well.
Something just doesn’t seem right....

200k in my area will get you a very nice place in town and a really nice place in the county.$200k.....depending on where you are in the state....that won’t get you much these days. 1/10 acre subdivision lot with a 1500 square foot house around here is going between $200k and $300k. I live out in the country but the subdivisions are popping up. Go to the other side of the cape fear and they bring $300k-$500k.

Yep, in Knightdale the house that's a carbon copy of mine went for $170K, 1300 sf, half acre. I paid $160K three years ago. talk about a pi** poor return, I told the missus don't you ever refer to this pile of sticks as an investment again. Oh well, I have half an acre and I don't have to ask a landlord or HOA about painting the house.200k in my area will get you a very nice place in town and a really nice place in the county.
My daughter is in the Garner/Clayton area and 200k there will get you a 1200-1400 sq ft house from what Ive seen. Same house here will be 120-150k depending on location in town and even less out in the county.

It is born and raised close by and my family still lives in area. Tazwell is nice area property value tends be better than where I'm from due to proximity to 460 and its not bad ride to Bluefield where some work is I know few that do the hour drive to Abingdon or wythehville. If I could make close what I make here I'd go back in heartbeat good luck if you move very nice place to live and raise familyCheap is relative up there... we’re considering buying her house. There is a house for sale about a mile from her that is around 1500 sq ft on a 1/2 acre lot that is for sale for $110,000 and it needs to be renovated. Tax assessment on it is $135,000.
I have no understanding of tax assessments in that area whatsoever

That's pretty big drop in pay and very reason 60% people I work with are from southern West Va area. I always joke statesville and hickory has as many people from West va as NCIt’s definitely a nice area, my father in law has 380 some odd acres that he runs cattle on about a mile off of 460.
My BIL works in Claypool Hill, and has a good paying job, good enough that he’s going to commute from Bland.
The job market up there is certainly not very good. A position comparable to my current position pays about $500 less per week than I currently make.
