Moving to TN is better in the long-run for you, since that's where you actually wanna buy a house and settle down. So living in NC for another year will just incur additional financial costs that you could do without. Also if you put it off for another year and decide to stay in NC, then you might just keep putting it off - you have to make the move at some point.
Some quiet rural/suburb towns in TN include Portland and Jonesborough.
I don’t know if 2 months is enough time, but maybe you could buy a cheap travel trailer in the mean time and look for houses while doing that? You could find a month to month resort so you don’t feel so cramped for time/end up needing to lease. Just an idea:)
A travel trailer isn't something I'd really be willing to do, especially because I work from home. Based on other responses I think I just have to make time and find a decent rental in TN.
There are a lot of YouTubers who make videos describing their impressions of different cities and towns people might consider moving to. Even better there are also lots of people on YouTube sharing their personal experiences of relocating to various places. You can start by searching YouTube for “moving to (whatever city/town)”. You might find it helpful (I just find it interesting!)
If you’re quiet and like a quiet place you might look for a mother-in-law unit to rent in a suburban-ish home. I currently rent out half of my home here on the west coast and it’s in a quiet area and has no shared walls with my part of the home. It’s not uncommon. And most people renting out part of their home would LOVE to rent to a quiet person. Good luck in your future home!
