A growing number of purchasers in the United States are thinking of relocating to a town or suburb. This year, there are fewer buyers in the market overall, and the total number of purchasers is also down; however, among those still shopping, a more significant percentage are looking outside their home city. Redfin reports that 24.9% of its website users throughout the country searched outside their metropolitan region to locate a new house. Housing costs and the rise in popularity of remote work are two factors driving homebuyers to s...

Nestled in Port Jefferson Long Island, in The Town of Brookhaven, The Riviera is a private Condo community on the North Shore of Eastern Long Island.  The Riviera can be reached by the Long Island Expressway to the Nicolls Road Exit and North to Route 25A to Oakwood Road. Opened in the 1970′s and continued through the 1980′s, the Condos at The Riviera were designed with contemporary flare.    There are attached Ranch floor plans, and 2 story townhouse units. This community is unique because it was built with no Condo backing up on another. This creates more privacy for each homeowner. The neighborhood has a private community pool and deck for the enjoyment of the homeowners. Owners can enjoy all the Port Jefferson Village amenities, including free beach access, and village parking.     ...
