    OMG! I literally just got off the phone with a prospective client, and she told me that you mentioned me (the service) in the video. I'm so very thankful for your kind words. You were a pleasure to work with! I hope your life in Charlotte is every single thing you dream of. And I pray God blesses it abundantly. Thank you again for this. It made my day. I'm literally smiling as I'm typing this.

    I have been on a binge of Charlotte moving and “things to know” videos and I must say you are hilarious and relatable I’m ready to move to Charlotte as well to grow within my current company and also single young no dependents! The time is definitely now I can’t wait anymore it’s getting way to expensive where I’m currently at in FL to the point where I’m like why do I even have a roommate the 1 bedroom gonna cost the same thing in Charlotte !!!! 🤣 and you not lying about them moving quotes because even a local move they charge between 500 minimum and I’m like FOR WHAT it’s literally just ME not a family of 5 🤣🤣

      @@phenomenallypatty I am looking for that glow and smile once I am willing to relocate from houston, texas. could you give me some tips to be able to grow. I have a 16 year old so I wanted to know what are some affordable areas to move to? did you have employment before you moved out there?..that is the plan for me. What are affordable areas for african-american families?

    • @phenomenallypatty
      @phenomenallypatty  Před rokem +1

      Hi! I would look at areas around the city. The further from uptown the more space you get for your money. I'm still learning the city, but I do love areas north towards concord. I did land employment prior to moving. All of the major banks are here, so I would definitely serach in those industries.

    Congratulations on your move! I came to Charlotte three years ago to check out apartments, I toured a very new apartment complex, and a not so new one. The primary bedrooms were not as spacious as I would like but I’m sure there are plenty of other places available. I currently have a realtor, checking things out for me. I am definitely downsizing and not bringing much furniture with me.
    Thank you for such an informative video 😘
