Long Island Home Buyers Looking For A Waterfront, Water View Home | What's The Difference?

Do you love being near the water? Do you enjoy boating, fishing, kayaking, jet skiing, or just the luxury of looking out at amazing sunsets? Waterfront and Water View properties are in demand. 

 

When a potential Waterfront or Water View client calls us, we first ask them exactly what they are looking for. Do they want the views of the Long Island Sound or the Ocean? Are they looking for a water feature looking at a pond? Do they want access to the water for boating or fishing from their home? Do they need a boat slip and what size their boat is? 

The best way to find a buyer the right property is to determine what their priorities are when it comes to Waterfront and Water View living. Then, we can focus on what types of property may be available for them.

 

Sometimes you may want to consider the property more than the house. However, what if the house is exactly what you're looking for, but the water feature is not. The view is not the one you were really looking for. There's no access to get to the water. The pond view is perfect, but there's no privacy.  You may be able to change the house, but you can’t change the water aspect. So, before buying a Waterfront or Water View home or condo, make sure the water feature is what you really wanted.

 

Also, remember extra costs may be involved for additional maintenance of your home being close to the water from the natural elements, to the higher cost of your home insurance. Waterfront and Water View homeowners may have to cover additional perils such as flood insurance and liabilities.

 

With these things in mind, you can decide if Waterfront or Water View living is what you've been looking for on Long Island. Then, call Lawrence & Sheila Agranoff so we can help you find the one that compliments your needs and desires.

Great post explaining the difference between waterfront and water view, Sheila and Larry. We had quite a bit of issues here in our MLS because at one time this was not well understood... now we are required to list very specifically -- waterfront, waterview, partial waterview, and seasonal waterview -- to avoid problems with what buyers think they are buying.

Sheila & Larry loved this post, I always smile when we advertise in the Hollywood Hills Ocean view.... keep in mind it is a 9-10 mile far away view.... not like being in Marina Del Rey or Santa Monica on the beach:)) Endre
