Interested in property in Elizabeth city, nc

[Markel Q Dawson]

Looking for an insight from any locals to the Pasquotank county area of NorthCarolina. I'm planning to relocate there for university and am considering a small home purchase.

I've seen homes here for sale for less than $50k . The plan is to purchase the home while attending university and maybe have a roommate to lower the expenses.  I've lived on a college campus before and I know it's not for me. 

Please any insight, critiques,  or suggestions and questions are welcome
