15 years ago my sister moved to Max Meadow VA. 7 acres and a four bedroom for 135,000 She sold it 5 years ago for 279 and moved to Pulaski into mobile home.
You might check out the area if you get near Bristol TN Max Meadow is very rural but near the interstate 81 and the intersection of I-77. The area is half way between Bristol and Roanoke VA about 5 hours from Dulles Airport and the same for Raleigh-Durham which has great hospitals. There is a hospital in Roanoke and one in Bristol. Also an airport in Charlotte, NC.
The closest city to Max Meadow is just south, Wytheville VA also a nice place where the interstates Intersect. People are good throughout the area.
There’s a couple of realtors in the area.
Virginia is a deal breaker now that it is a liberal state. People tell me that it is going back to be a red state this election, but I can’t risk it. The die is cast for Virginia. I could not be happy living under the socialist laws Virginia is going to be buried in shortly.
The sad thing is, Virginia was my retirement target 20 years ago and since. I could not foresee that it would be conquered so quickly and thoroughly by the commie libs. While the Commonwealth could use my vote, I am afraid my vote just wouldn’t count there anymore.
So while I appreciate your help, Virginia is now on my black-list along with the rest of the commie liberal states I refuse to be oppressed by. After 60 years living in California, I am yearning to breathe free.
I do appreciate your help though. You meant well.
