Crystal Beach, TX vs. Galveston, TX

Posted

Hello Everyone. This is my first post. I am considering building or purchasing a STR home in Crystal Beach or Galveston. Who can I discuss pros and cons with? Property tax rate, HOA fees, Insurance fees, ferry, etc. I have a friend who has recently built two very nice beach side homes in Crystal Beach and seems to be doing well, almost difficult to believe, but he is now building a third. Crystal Beach is okay for me, but my wife prefers Galveston where it's more diverse and less controversial, political flags everywhere. I am interested in your feedback.

Thanks for the information. I ended up purchasing a lot in Jamaica Beach and the build should be complete by this November.
