Every year, we work with more and more families making the same move Bob Waugh made a few years ago: leaving California for a slower pace, lower cost of living, and a lot more house for the money here in Northeast Tennessee.
We sat down with Bob to hear the real story — not the highlight reel, but what it actually took to pack up, sell, buy, and start over here in the Tri-Cities.
A few things Bob talks about in the video:
What made him choose the Tri-Cities over other places
His experiences here in the Tri-Cities
His honest advice for anyone considering the same move
If you're weighing a move to Northeast Tennessee — whether from California or anywhere else — we think Bob's story will answer a lot of the questions you haven't found good answers to yet.
Thinking about relocating to the Tri-Cities? We'd love to help you find your way here, the way we helped Bob. Reach out to us or get a free home valuation if you're on the other end of the move and need to sell first.
