Being a FL resident, one thing I'd suggest to keep in mind is storm preparations. If it were me, as charming as some of those historic homes can be, I'd opt for something newer from a practical perspective. I'm not sure what standard building materials are used there, but CBS > wood frame for storms. Maybe that's not common there - no idea. I'd also plan to get impact glass installed before moving in if possible (install makes a mess) and make sure the roof has a good inspection before closing.

I'll definitely make sure I consider/look into the foundation/solidarity of the home prior to making a purchase. I appreciate the advice!

Only thing is you both pay for it the day after!  |
Haha I hear ya man, I know you'll have me on all of the weight aspects, my strength isn't what it was in my prime especially since I'm down a solid bit of weight. Once I stop getting injured and summer passes I'll start pushing the envelope again! I'd just be interested in new movements since you have a boat load of experience.

My wife and I visit that area quite frequently, and we definitely love the vibe of downtown Charleston. Great atmosphere with outstanding restaurants. From my perspective, I think your Fiancé is correct when speaking of North Charleston. But again, I could definitely be wrong. Best of luck with your search.  |
Will do, thanks for the heads up! We also enjoyed downtown especially compared to the "cities" that we are use to. Had a lot of charm and the people are very pleasant for the most part!
