 QUESTIONS |
 WHO
CAN HELP |
|
DO YOU EVER THINK YOU MIGHT LIKE TO BUY A BEACH HOUSE? DO YOU EVER GO LOOK AT HOUSES FOR SALE WHEN YOU GO TO THE BEACH? IF YOU DECIDE TO BUY A PROPERTY, WOULD YOU RENT IT, OR JUST USE IT FOR YOURSELF? HOW DO YOU PICK A REAL ESTATE AGENT? HOW DO YOU MAKE SURE YOU GET A GOOD VALUE? HOW CAN YOU IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES TO NEGOTIATE A GOOD PRICE BY BEING REPRESENTED BY A QUALITY BUYER'S AGENT AND NOT A DUAL OR SELLER'S AGENT? IF YOU NEED TO RENT IT TO MAKE THE PAYMENTS, HOW DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY YOU CAN GET FROM THE PROPERTY? WHAT IF THERE IS A STORM AND YOU LOSE IT ALL? WHAT HAPPENS? IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT A CONDO? WHAT IS YOUR RISK OF ASSESSMENT? WHAT IS THE ASSESSMENT HISTORY OF THE COMPLEX? ARE THERE ANY KNOWN UPCOMING ASSESSMENTS? ARE SOME AREAS OF THE ISLAND BETTER THAN OTHERS? CAN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE WITH LOCATION? IF YOU ARE RENTING FROM US, AND ARE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING A BEACH HOUSE, LET US KNOW, WE WILL BE GLAD TO SHARE WITH YOU OUR EXPERIENCES IN RESEARCHING, BUYING, OWNING, AND THE COSTS INVOLVED. WE CAN HELP YOU BY RECOMMENDING A SKILLED REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL THAT WILL REPRESENT ONLY YOUR INTERESTS. THE LESS A PERSON KNOWS ABOUT A LOCAL MARKET (PARTICULARLY RESORT PROPERTY) THE MORE IMPORTANT IT IS TO OBTAIN THE PROFESSIONAL HELP OF AN EXPERIENCED AND HONEST LICENSED REAL ESTATE AGENT THAT WILL WORK FOR YOU AND LOOK AFTER YOUR INTERESTS.

THERE ARE
MANY WHO WOULD LIKE TO HELP YOU FIND A PROPERTY AT OCEAN ISLE.
THE ISLAND IS NOT LACKING FOR REAL ESTATE AGENTS BUYING A HOUSE AT THE BEACH IS A LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT THAN BUYING A HOUSE IN YOUR HOME TOWN. KEEP IN MIND YOU DO NOT KNOW THE AREA OR SPECIAL THINGS ABOUT CONSTRUCTION AT THE BEACH. THE PROPERTIES FOR SALE AT OCEAN ISLE ARE SHARED AMONGST THE LOCAL AGENTS. THE LIST IS FINITE AND ANY SKILLED AGENT HAS A LIST OF ALL THE PROPERTIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE. IF IT WERE ME, I WOULD WANT A BUYER'S AGENT REPRESENTING ONLY MY INTEREST. THIS WAY, POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST ARE AVOIDED. IF YOU GET A GOOD BUYER'S AGENT, YOU HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF BEING BETTER INFORMED AND GETTING A BETTER VALUE. ONE OF THE GOOD, INDEPENDENT, EXPERIENCED BUYERS AGENTS ON THE ISLAND IS JO ANN MESSICK, AND WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER. SHE CAN BE REACHED AT EMAIL:joannmessick@oceanislesales.com OR PHONE 910-579-7124. SHE IS AVAILABLE TO MEET WITH YOU AND DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITIES, EITHER BY PHONE, EMAIL, OR PERSONAL VISIT, THE NEXT TIME YOU VISIT OCEAN ISLE BEACH, NORTH CAROLINA
