Building A Bridge To Higher Real Estate Values

Along with "why is the sky blue?" one of those curious child-questions is how a bridge gets built into the water. Okay, maybe it's not just a child's question!  The engineering feat is amazing and more than a passing interest to those of use who live in Brunswick County, NC.

This photo of the "second" bridge was just taken and yes, indeed, the project is right on schedule. What does that mean? It means that great property opportunities for both homes and land near the bridge on Oak Island, making Wilmington and Myrtle Beach even closer when you choose to leave paradise.

It means another access for those who live in Seawatch, St. James, Riversea and other plantations. Now is the perfect time to buy. Why? Because the prognosticators predict a turn-around just as the bridge is finished and the prices will start going up.

And by the way, the blue of a Carolina sky defies description but who cares? It brings such a sense of wonder and well-being that we don't really care why it's blue.

Leaving the Beach

Leaving the Beach

Beach time is magic time. The first day of vacation, you'll stay through two tide changes, a cooler full of drinks and half of the summer's top beach book. The last day of vacation is a series of resigned sighs. It can take a good hundred miles toward home before the ache goes away. It's leaving a slowed-down life. The soothing push-pull of the waves on nerves.The restoration of your soul that comes from a blue sea and bright sky. It can be easier. A vacation home, a retirement home to visit through the last crazy years of works- it's completely affordable at prices that won't be seen again. Come here for a long weekend to swim in the ocean in October. Come walk the beach on New Year's Day. Leave winter snow to see daffodils in February.  It can be done, and we can help it happen.
