Waterfront Investment - Need input

[David C.]

Hey BP!

I've been investing for several years and have acquired 8 rentals. I am interested in purchasing on the waterfront. Part of the reason is that COVID presented an obstacle that we weren't able to vacation at the beach and the opportunity to overcome.

I am interested in waterfront property and want to know your input on the difference in demand for something that is beachfront vs river or lake front.

I am looking to purchase in North Carolina. While beachfront is ideal, it's expensive. I'm wondering if riverfront that leads to the ocean would be a great option. Boat access & boat slips are available on most that I've looked at.

Let me know your thoughts and what I should prepare for or be aware of. Which questions should I be asking.
