Relocating from NH to NC: Wanted Rental Home (Greensboro, Burlington: neighborhood, to buy)

[runawayrn]

My husband and I will be relocating to NC around the middle of June. I have accepeted a job in Greensboro. We are looking for a rental home within 30 min or so to Greensboro. Looking for something rural with a small town feeling. Interested in Jamestown, Kernerville, Burlington, or open for ideas. We do not have much time lol. Rent preferable under $1000 or a rent to own would be ideal.

Then don't put yourselves in the position of having to make *the* choice right off.

Find something CHEAP near the hospital in the G'boro that you can rent short term
or even up to a year. Then use that time to poke around in peace for exactly what you want.
Heck, you may even decide to buy at that point.

Hello there.I will 2nd MR Rational.Good idea. By the way We are also from NH.And we plan to relocate there in the next 12 months or so.We have done some research online.. And also spent a week there last year. Looking around the state.And talking with people who live there.I find that's the best way to look at a new area. We are headed back down in June.For vacationa, and also do a little more poking around.David

If you get a chance look at Mebane

I like Mebane, but if you're going to work in Greensboro there are closer places to live.

Look in Fisher Park for a rental. Nice neighborhood, walk to the hospital (if you are working at Cone proper) and to downtown Greensboro. That would be a nice base for you to start looking for a more permanent spot.
