According to a recent survey by Relocation.com, North Carolina saw 80% more moving requests to move to North Carolina than to leave North Carolina.  For every 100 requests to leave North Carolina there are 180 new requests to move into North Carolina.  Not only is this important from an economic standpoint but also from a political standpoint. It looks like North Carolina will pick up a seat in the House of Representatives.  To learn more about relocating to North Carolina or Wilmington NC Real Estate contact me at 910-431-9395 or visit my website at www.livingbythecoast.com.
