Relocating to South Carolina

According to 2006 national statistics, South Carolina is rated the fifth fastest growing state and the Spartanburg/Greenville area is rated the eleventh fastest growing area in the country. A considerable amount of this is due to the international business that this climate and lower cost of living attracts.

With our location being only 3-4 hours from the beaches of Charleston, Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head, 45 minutes from the mountains, and 2-1/2 hours from the artistic environment of Asheville, N.C, it's no wonder that we have experienced such growth. We have two nationally accredited healthcare systems. BMW and Michelin North American Operations are based here, and so is Denny’s corporate office. There are more international corporations manufacturing in this one area than any other in the United States. This gives us a wonderfully culturally diverse population that retains its southern hospitality.

At Weichert Realtors®, Peggy Wilson & Associates, we assist out of state and out of country buyers in finding a place to call home. About 60% of my buyer assistance business is from clients from such locations as Florida, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. With your interest in the Upstate South Carolina area in mind, I have provided some helpful links on the Resources page to assist you in learning about the wonderful qualities of this area for employment, education and enjoyment. I am here to assist you with any questions you might have and with your relocation to a great place to live.

If your relocation to this state requires selling your current home, and you would like assistance with that, I can also recommend a top agent close to you and have them contact you to present a selling plan that is coordinated with your purchase here. I would be happy to help you in any way possible to make your move go smoothly.

I am proud to call South Carolina home, and I welcome you to our beautiful state. If you need any information, or have any questions that the Resources page does not answer, please don't hestitate to call me at (864) 384-2488 or send me an e-mail.
