Hi ALL
Thanks for having such a great site... has been a help as our family starts the process of packing and moving. Relocating from western burbs of Philly after falling in love with Greenville CITY AND surounding areas(in Greenville CTY and others)
Looking to settle in Greenville Proper, have family living in Gower Estates and loved it.
Looking for a 4-5 bedroom home under 300K within 3-4 miles of eastside of Greenville so was wondering several things
1) have found about 5 realtor sites for homes, anyone know of a good realtor they used in moving to Greenville area?
2) Regarding another thread on Charter Cable, I probably will be allowed to tele-commute to work via onliine web access to company network. What options are there for reliable internet service? Is it Charter and/or SBC? And what price is it for "unbundled" service, strictly internet or possible internet and phone
3) What area(s) would some who are living there now recommend for a family of 3- 2 adults and an ederly parent (and dog)? We do not want to be in a swiftly growing area with lots of kids, that is why we liked the quietness of Gower. We also liked Parkins mill/ Del Norte but realize prices for some areas we liked( as in Chanticleer and Collins Creek) are pretty steep. We are widning down from family raising, too young ot be considered elderly ourselves but will be doing a family care for one parent. We love your one level ranches, something we have few of in my area of PA...
So will start here and thanks everyone in advance for any suggestions
You can get Charter for $19.99, $39.99, or $59.99 per month in the Greenville Area (3meg, 5meg, or 10meg). Even the 3meg is 3 times faster than DSL (SBC).
You might want to consider bundling it with your cable and/or phone service. It'll save you a lot of money.

Be careful when your contract expires; the price goes up a lot if you have all 3 services (tv, phone, internet).

we used a friend of a friend. he's a really nice guy, very down to earth, honest, and obviously truly wanted to help us find the best place for us. several times, i remember him telling us we should NOT move into certain places just because of the area. it didn't look so bad to us, but he knew alot more about where it is and isn't safe to be. you could really tell, he cared more about doing his job the right way and making sure we were happy than just making his commission. he didn't try to show us a single home that was out of our price range like some of them do. you know, just because you can qualify for a certain amount doesn't mean you can afford it. he really took into consideration our wants and needs. we couldn't be happier! we've actually remained friends since doing business with him because we so enjoyed working with him. check out his site and if you decide to give him a call, i really think you won't be disappointed!

Hey Soontosc/pa: I'm currently in the process of also investigating Charter for our new home in Easley,SC. I spoke this afternoon about the numerous options and to get the bundle which is the internet, cable & phone the lady in Customer Service suggested a package that include internet @ 5megs ( you can get as high as 10megs); unlimited phone, and cable TV beyond the basics. She said that package was $119 and change a month. The basic fee for the three was $109 I believe she said. You do realize that Charter is the ONLY company in SC other that Direct TV etc.
Good Luck
I was born and raised in greenville. its a great place. being in real estate myself there are many areas you can choose from. I am currently in Tenn and will be for a while. i would recommend sabrina crumpton. she is very knowledgable and works hard for her clients.

BellSouth provides internet access in various speeds depending on where you live, they have up to 6Mb up. I prefer BellSouth because they give you a price and stick to it. No 3 month then raise the price. Also, BellSouth does give you a local access number that you can use 9 or maybe it's 10 free hours a month in case your DSL goes down. Charter does not as far as I know. This maybe important if you are telecommuting.
they won't be offering anything below $54.99 soon i believe
unless you use retention in your favor
