Bored of Where You Are? These Cities Will Pay You to Move There
Are you itching to move, but need a little bit of an incentive? Then these programs might be for you.
The following cities and states will PAY YOU to move there . . . so as long as you are eligible.
To qualify for these programs all you need to do is work remotely from a state other than the one you choose . . . be a U.S. citizen . . . be older than 18 . . . and be able to relocate soon after you are selected.
Would you move to any of these places?
1. West Virginia is giving an incentive of $12,000, plus an outdoor recreation package, and a co-working space. But you must live in one of the following communities: New River George . . . Greenbrier Valley . . . Morgantown . . . Eastern Panhandle . . . or Greater Elkins.
2. Tulsa, Oklahoma will give you $10,000 after you purchase a qualifying home and a three-year membership to a co-working space.
3. Topeka, Kansas is offering $10,000 to be allocated for rent in the first year of your move . . . or up to $15,000 to put towards buying a new home.
4. Baltimore, Maryland is offering up to $5,000 in down payment and closing cost assistance. But you have to win a lottery.
5. Ketchikan, Alaska is offering $2,000 and three months of free internet.
6. Newton, Iowa is offering $10,000 cash, if you purchase a home worth more than $240,000.
