We had already looked around a few places when we were there for thanksgiving last year. We really liked this place so have an application in there now and just waiting for a response. We had to fill an international application form and send proof of ID and assets, but it's taking a bit longer than expected
The leasing person on site says we have 'no worries' but I'm not so sure!
I think we found the car too, but it's not going to do us any favours in the property tax department!![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)

That is the same car (color too) that we bought last month, so I will be able to give you a good idea of the taxes due pretty soon, hubby is going to sort the truck out in two weeks and will ask about the escape

When do you actually fly out of the UK?

No firm plans yet as we're waiting to see when we can exchange contracts on the house. Surveyor was out last friday so it shouldn't be too long hopefully
We've both worked our last day at work here so we're just enjoying the time off now! We're banking on early next month. The apartment is in a newly built area of Summerville, right next door to shopping,restaurants, cinema etc and the grounds look really well kept, but I might try a post on city-data as you suggested. Can't hurt to have a bit more knowledge!

Just got an email tonight to say we've been approved for the lease on the apartment, even though I have the credit score of someone who keeps all their worldly goods in a Walmart trolley! (sorry, shopping cart)

One of the things I have heard from quite a few people that moved over here recently, is that they wish they had done a bit of 'sightseeing' back home before they left, could be a good opportunity for you guys to go visit a few places and take lots of pics

Your wife may even enjoy watching some of the many videos that one of the members takes, in the different communities around Charleston.
