I wanted to take a moment to highlight why Wilmington, NC, and its surrounding beach towns (Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and beyond) are absolute gems for real estate investors right now.

✅ Strong Cash Flow & Appreciation: Investors are seeing fantastic short-term rental (STR) returns, with many properties pulling in 10-15%+ cash-on-cash returns thanks to high vacation demand. Even long-term rentals are producing solid yields, with strong rental appreciation year over year.

✅ Booming Market & Growth: Wilmington’s economy is thriving, driven by tourism, a growing tech and film industry, and an influx of people relocating for quality of life. This consistent demand is fueling rising home values and high occupancy rates for rentals.

✅ Beach Towns with Massive Potential: Carolina Beach and Kure Beach are investor hotspots, offering seasonal rental income spikes and properties that double as personal vacation homes. Plus, with limited land and high demand, real estate here continues to appreciate.

✅ Favorable Investment Options: Whether you’re looking for STRs, long-term buy-and-holds, fix-and-flips, or multi-family investments, Wilmington has opportunities across the board. I’m working with investors who are securing incredible deals and maximizing their returns.
