An important step in life is one’s first home purchase. First-time
home buyers are usually younger and have a price range of $100,000 to $200,000.
The Cape Fear region of Southeastern North Carolina
has many opportunities for those looking to own a private
residence.
The northern vicinity of Wilmington extending
up through Hampstead is one of the best
locations for new home buyers. The area on Highway 17 of Ogden is a great opportunity
for purchasing a home under $200,000. Other smaller areas with affordable homes
are Futch Creek, Scotts Hill and Brown Town.
The rapidly expanding area known as Leland
lying just over the Cape Fear River is a wonderful new home site for first time
buyers. Two brand new developments in the $100,000-$200,000 price range are Lanvale
Forest and Eastbrook. Many other already existing neighborhoods are available for
those looking to purchase in the Cape Fear region.
Another option the first-time home buyer might want to consider is a townhome, condominium
or patio home. These low maintenance units offer yard service, community amenities
and are much less expensive than a traditional single family home. Low maintenance
homes can be found all over the Cape Fear region of Southeastern North Carolina.
"Our Intracoastal
Realty agent made everything easier and was a pleasure to work
with. I have never purchased a home before and was not sure of
everything that had to be done. Certainly everything was
handled to my complete satisfaction." ~ Margaret Cook
