If you ever dreamed of owning beachfront property in the Carolinas, now is the time to act upon that dream. The struggling housing market has pushed house prices, including beachfront homes, to an all-time low. Southeastern North Carolina houses along the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, and Cape Fear River have become incredibly affordable. Buyers, who have been holding off on purchasing beachfront houses, are now getting great deals with motivated sellers, short sales, and foreclosed houses. Now is the time to research your options.
To start searching for your dream beachfront real estate, first consider what you can afford. Will it be your primary residence or a vacation home? Remember to calculate in the higher taxes and insurance that is required with North Carolina waterfront property. North Carolina experiences tropical storms and hurricanes of varying degrees, and you are often required to have extra hail, wind, or flood insurance depending exactly where the real estate is located.
You also need to decide if your beachfront home needs to be located in close proximity to schools, medical facilities, and certain employment. Southeastern North Carolina offers many options in the Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, Top Sail Island, Oak Island, Wilmington, and Cape Fear River Basin areas. So, buyers don't need to feel limited by distance or quality of schools and hospitals.
