If you speak to a Swansboro real estate agent, they will tell you that things have slowed down significantly. Compared to the real estate market of 1 year ago, they are right. However, there are still plenty of things going on to be interested in.
In Jacksonville, NC, there are several new home developments popping up. There are ones geared toward first-time home buyers and there are some aimed at established, professional families with larger incomes.
Cole’s Farm, for example, is a new development in the Jacksonville area. Each home will be situated on at least 1 acre of land. Translation, you will not be piled up on top of your neighbor. Additionally, the development sits just outside of the city limits. Translation, you get the benefits of city life without paying the higher property taxes associated with city life.
Cole’s Farm is targeting established families desiring to move to the North Carolina coast, near city amenities and schools but away from the hustle-and-bustle of city life. They are developing a web site to advertise this subdivision, so stay tuned.
If you are more in to a Condominium, check out Swann Harbour in Swansboro. These are great multi-level, waterfront condos right on the White Oak River. Very nice.
Also, in Cedar Point, NC, look for The Villages at Megan’s Bay. These condos are offered by Green Key Properties and have nearly sold out. You better act quickly if you are interested.
