    Appreciate your videos Renaldo! I moved here from Brooklyn, NY in July and I’m looking to keep this as my permanent home. I rent right now, but will eventually buy a home here.
    I was looking for a slower pace. More greenery without totally giving up some city life. Keep up the great work with your videos.

    I lived in Greenville, Sc for 2 years. It's nice...but, the land mass isn't big enough to handle the growth. Traffic on 85 is bad from Pelham Rd to Route 14. Woodruff Rd is the worst major road in Greenville and they have more accidents than a little bit. With that being said, it's still a nice city....but, Spartanburg had my attention and I moved there.

    • @RenaldotheRealtor
      @RenaldotheRealtor  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You can get a lot of bang for your buck in Spartanburg so I don't blame you. It's growing really fast though too so hopefully they get the infrastructure ready for it there too

    Good job, Renaldo. 🤙🏼 Keep it up. I think interviewing people on the street is where it’s at and a great formula. Guarantees each video will be unique. It’s different than what your competitors are doing w their videos. The “Top 5” this and “Top 5” that is kinda played out.

      @@RenaldotheRealtor Hello! We are renting at Baldwin Chase in Simpsonville until we can find a home that suits our needs. I’m hoping for Greenville and if not there, probably Greer. I find Simpsonville crazy with too much traffic. I also want more a a “downtown” location.
      We arrived three days before the storm hit. Chose GVL over Charleston to AVOID the hurricanes! Ironic right?
      Still have family but they’re in Lansing. Hubs remaining family are in Charleston.

    I love your videos, I already move 1 year and a half ago from north dakota, cause I was looking to get out of the cold weather, and search and search for the best place, and I found Greenville, I really love it here, the weather is the best thing ever, all seasons are unique and very prerry in North Dakota it was just winter and winter melting, Greenville is a great place, very central close to Atlanta, charlote, tennese, with the most beautiful downtown, and if you told me there is a prettier downtown than Greenville I wouldn't;t believe you.

      @iceman227288 I'm glad you found a place that is working much better for you! Call me and my family lucky if you want to, but we haven't had the negative experiences you have. Thankfully, no one in my family has major illnesses, but we have been using the healthcare system a lot with smaller issues and with our pregnancy and son's birth. Our experiences have been very good for the most part. When we first moved here, my wife and I secured high paying jobs, and I stayed until I decided to become self-employed. So we haven't had trouble there either. There are a lot of Republicans here, so half the people in the country will hate that, and the other half will love it. But I know my experience won't be the same as everyone else's, so I'm not trying to take anything away from what you went through. We have no problem packing up and moving if that's what's best for our family, but Greenville has been great for us personally.
