Pat, I live in the area, and I responded in January. If you are not working with a buyer's agent, please call me. I will be happy to email you information or speak to you directly. The market in our area is a little unique. There are several houses that have been on the market over two years; sellers have received offers, but they have rejected them. Sellers sometimes ignore the market, and they are not motivated to take lower offers. My cell is 910-489-8464. Email: linda.hinson@coldwellbanker.com. If you are working with a buyer's agent, you need to discuss the market in our area with them.

The average price of a home has fallen 30% (sold price) since 2007. $120.00 a square foot is a starting point on an offer. Price, condition, location are still the keys to any home selling in this market.

Just following up Pat - did you have any luck getting the information that you need in Susnset? I know of several other courses along the coast that may interest you if you are still looking. ry

Pat,
Pine Knoll Shores has a unit facing the greens on the Country Club, ocean views. Golf Cart to the Country Club or walk across the street and you are on the beach.
Morehead City has a one level unit on the Reserve. It will be about 15 minutes to the beach.
Call me or e-mail. I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you.

It depends what golf community or what course, Pat. Can you say which it is?

Pat,
My property on the 4th Fairway of Morehead Country Club is under contract and closing this month. There are a few more directily on the fairways. Pine Knoll Shores on Atlantic Beach has a few on the market. E-mail for more information.

I have visited a number of golf communities along the NC coast, from Albermarle Plantation (Hertford) down to Ocean Ridge Planation in Sunset Beach. I recently helped a customer from New Jersey identify and purchase a lot in Ocean Ridge, which is about 10 minutes from the beach. Most courses are "semi-private", a few are private. Suffice to say, you have much to choose from. I have written about some of the communities in NC at my web site, so please have a look. I also have made excellent contacts between Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, if you would like a qualified referral. All good luck, Larry

Pat,
Crystal Coast has several golf courses and homes for sale. I have a great home setting off 4th fairway in Morehead City. I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you on any home in this area. E-mail me and I can send you several listings on the golf course or in golf community.

Hi Pat,

You can get some great buys this time of year in this area; however, there will be several factors that affect an offer. The most important one is how motivated the seller truly is. I would be happy to assist you with any information you require. Do keep in mind that if you are already working with an agent, they will need to furnish this info for you. Our code of ethics require that we don't interfere in that relationship. If not, contact me. 910-489-8464 or through my website.

Hello Pat, It looks as if you are speaking about a house in Sunset Beach. I would start by asking a buyers agent in the Brunswick County area to look at properties that have recently sold that are comparable to the house that you are interested in. I see you are from out of the area - I work in Brunswick County and would love to do so if you are not working with another agent. I will send you something via email if you wish.
Best of luck in your search! Renee

Pat,

Your offer should always reflect what the property is worth to you. Price is just a part of an offer and it depends what the seller’s current situation is. It is definitely buyers market and there is no telling what you can get it for unless you make on offer.

Good luck
Your North Carolina Broker
