Beach house owners considering selling might ask, 'Does it matter when I put my home up for sale in Nags Head?' In most home towns, the sale of a residential home would be timed around the closing and opening of the schools with nothing happening in the winter. Not here at the beach.The difference here in Nags Head is the timing of the school sessions doesn't matter to people buying a second home. No moving of people or belongings is involved as the second homes are mostly sold fully furnished and already in a rental program.So, looking at the chart below, you can see that for the year 2014 home sales peaked in mid May and mid September. Let's look at this a little closer. The sales activity started to pick up in February and continued at a fairly brisk pace until mid May. The graph tra...

Property owners in Nags Head are still waiting for the real estate market to turn around so they can start to recoup some of the equity they lost in the crash. Home prices have stopped spiraling out of control like a piece of paper in the toilet,  and the beginning stages of leveling off have begun, but home prices in Nags Head have not started to go back up just yet.Still, the Nags Head home sales activity is consistently strong and in some areas the sales activity is the same or higher than it was in 2005 during the height of the real estate boom. More homes sold in Nags Head on the oceanfront and on the sound-side during the 1st half of 2015 than sold in the 1st half of 2005 and homes in between the roads have doubled over last year..All this sales activity is creating some demand an...

It is once again time to shop for Outer Banks real estate and your home on the beach. Really. Throughout this year single family homes for sale from Corolla, Duck, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, and through Nags Head have averaged 1% above the average sales price for 2010. Considering that this is the first year out of several that the prices have not fallen, it is time for serious buyers to come back and get the best of the buys! Some buyers have already taken advantage of Outer Banks real estate  once again being a good buy. The number of sales have increased 5% over 2010. With this boring read of statistics, let me show you some exact numbers. While resort real estate remains higher than traditional home sales, just remember there is only so much beach property ... an...

Beach nourishment will begin in Nags Head on June 4th according to the town website. The town has posted a time schedule so residents and visitors will know when particular areas will be affected. This will be a 24hr/7 day a week process and will run from June-October 2011. There will be some temporary beach closures while equipment is being moved so tourists are advised to contact their rental agency or the Town of Nags Head for the most up to date nourishment activity. Below is the current schedule:

It has been a long time coming but finally the Town of Nags Head has received the go ahead to start their beach nourishment project. Beach nourishment has been a controversial topic on the Outer Banks for the last 15yrs. The project will begin in June and start in South Nags Head, an area that has seen the worst beach erosion over the last 2 decades, and will span 10 miles. Only time will tell if it was worth it or not. Below is the beginning of an article from The Outer Banks Voice on the project: Beach nourishment is officially a go for Nags Head Rob Morris | April 6, 2011 "Other than the weather or equipment failure, no more obstacles appear to be in the way of Nags Head starting to pump sand onto 10 miles of beach this spring and finishing by October.Pending litigation will not affe...

The Outer Banks real estate market continues to heat up at the start of 2011. The number of listings that went under contract in January was up 20% from this same time last year. 2010 ended up as the best year the Outer Banks market has seen since 2006. With inventory continuing to decline, down 14% from 2010, and home sales increasing I am starting to see signs of a fundamental shift in the market towards neutral from the buyers market we have seen for the last 5 years. Mortgage rates have moved above 5% for the first time in a few years with many experts saying that by the end of year rates could be close to 6%. The number of distressed property sales has been stable for the last 3 months still hovering around 40%(30% Foreclosures & 10% Short Sales) of all properties sold on the Outer...

    Each summer I get asked this question in multiple variations. There was a time when the  shops would close up for the off season once Labor Day hit and everything would all but come to a stop. Not any more. The Outer Banks (OBX) has really become a 10 month resort with different groups coming at different times. There is the pattern as I see it.   June, July, & August: These are definitely the busiest months down here with families getting away while the kids are off from school.  They will often spend 6 hours traveling through 5 states just to spend another 2 hours covering the last 20 miles.   September & October: The big families have all gone back home to work & school. Now you see many “empty nesters” coming down to enjoy a quieter, less expensive Outer Banks. The weather on t...

Outer Banks Restaurant for Fine Dining When it comes to choosing an Outer Banks Restaurant for Fine Dining, the first place I think about is Kelly's Outer Banks Restaurant and Tavern. Oh, we have a multitude of wonderful places to spend an evening for a special night out, but I just love Kelly's. Of course each meal is wonderful, great selection cooked by an expert chef. Each item will create memories of the best of any dining experience.  But I must say I am most attracted by the atmosphere. It's kinda like going back home for the best family gathering ever. Everyone just makes me feel welcome. When I consider an Outer Banks Restaurant for fine dining this is my choice. The restaurant has many rooms to make dining there a new experience each time. There's also the bar with dance floor ...

Outer Banks Restaurants and Variety in Menu There are so many fabulous restaurants here on the Outer Banks for meals to fit all palates and budgets.

I wrapped up my time on the beach in Nags Head, NC this afternoon.  Yes, the jellyfish were still out in full force, but I decided to enter the water one last time anyway.  I'm happy to report, I did not get stung, but I do believe I felt the 'swish' of one of the jellies on my leg.  Ewwwwwww...... As always, Real Estate, crowded my thoughts.  Look carefully at the photo to the left.  The last house on the right has been my shelter this week.  I either sat in front, to the right or underneath it because it offered the shade that this blonde-haired, blue-eyed, fair-skinned kid needed.  I'm happy to report that I may have several new freckles, but no sunburn to speak of. I've been seeing so much in the headlines about Flood insurance lately.  In my area, flood insurance is just a nuisance...

Reporting from Nags Head, NC once again.  The weather has been nothing short of awesome.  The beach?  Relaxing and quiet. The ocean?  Majestic. The waves?  Strong and powerfull. My favorite brown pelicans?  Inspiring. The jellyfish?  Relentless. There isn't much that can keep me from the water.  I absolutely LOVE to jump over the waves.  A burst of cold temperature won't hinder me from enjoying the ocean. BUT....... The jellyfish win.  Today I barely went in up to my ankles and even at that I had to jump a little-to-the- left-and-a-little-to-the-right, at times, to avoid the gosh-darn jellyfish. Apparently, it's a record summer for jelly fish stings. (www.wect.com/Global/story.asp?S=12905044) Hopefully, they will go away tomorrow.  Don't they know that I'm on vacation???? Just a thought...

I've been fortunate to travel over the past several years to many beautiful places.  I hope to see others in the years ahead.  I've seen the sunrise in Alaska, in Hawaii and today in Nags Head, NC. Guess What?  It doesn't matter where  I am.  The sunrise is just as glorious and just as breathtaking in each spot. Guess What Else? The promise and potential of each new day cannot and should not be overlooked. Happy Trails everyone! Just a thought for today.

Here I am - still on vacation in Nags Head, NC.  The quiet times on the beach each day have given me much-needed time to reflect.  Just to sit and think.  As always, one of the prevalent thoughts is (no surprise here) Real Estate. Day 1 - I realized and acknowledged that Real Estate is on my mind no matter where I am.  Everyday in everyway I am noticing the terrific properties and opportunities in Nags Head.  Notably, there is a house on the Auction Block right across the street from my vacation home. Day 2 - I saw a gorgeous home right on the beach.  It reminded me of how exciting it is to secure a new listing in a wonderful location and in wonderful condition.  Day 3 - I went online in an attempt to follow the auction.  In order to observe it, I would have had to input all of my conta...
