Search Homes for Sale in Fort Mill, SC:  Many people looking to relocated to the Charlotte area are also looking for low taxes and good schools; some are retired and looking for an affordable place to live.  That can be found right outside Charlotte in the adjoining South Carolina Homes for sale in York County  and  Homes for sale Lancaster County SC.

A couple of years ago I met a couple from Queens, New York  who were looking for a place to retire.  He had been a teacher and she had been a nurse, but they could not afford to live in New York on fixed retirement incomes.  They came to the Charlotte with much trepidation, not sure what the culture was like and how welcoming it would be.  He is golfer so the idea of Homes in Golf Communities  was more than appealing to him.  She was not so sold on the area.  It is hot here and she still had family in New York.

After looking around for a few days we found a beautiful brand new  home in Fort Mill, SC just a few feet, literally, from the NC border; All the amenities of the upscale Ballantyne area with all the benefits of low tax Lancaster County.  

They sold their older, smallish home in Queens with its $12,000/year tax bill and bought a brand new larger home with a $1,200/year tax bill and lawn care provided by the HOA....for $50,000 less than they sold the NY home for!

After the winter we have all been through they are estatic!  They love it here and family is following close behind.
