According to an article published by the Associated Press, most relocators are heading to NC. This pretty much confirms why the Real Estate Market is staying afloat in North Carolina.
It seems that a study conducted by United Van Lines, our nations largest residential moving company, found that North Carolina had the highest rate of relocators into our fair state. With a 61.6 percent rating, NC is the leading state for the 2nd consecutive year.
United Van Lines has been tracking moves since 1977 and reviewed almost 213,000 residential moves handled by the company in 2007 alone in the continental United States.
WHEW! That's a lot of packing and moving and unpacking! 
As a "been there, done that" Real Estate Professional/Relocator myself, I can truly attest that NC is a great place to live. I moved here to NC 15 years ago from NYC and could not be more satisfied with calling Mebane NC home.
