We want at least 1 acre, 3 bedrooms and under $80K. We found some nice manufactured homes in Nash County about 15 minutes from Nashville on hwy 58. Can you tell me anything about the area or would you advise any others? We have family in Sanford.
Thanks

Looking at my NC state map from Nashville to Sanford would be approx an hour? Just guessing. Looks like the Raleigh area would be closer. I would talk to your family that is already in the state. Also check out the city and chamber of commerce websites. They have all kinds of stats and info, don't forget to check out the job market.
