I've had some clients who have had a lot of success with lakes and beaches.

I could only dream of finding that type of deal here.I can pick up an 8 unit property near the beach for $2.9M currently.   

I’ve puchased a beach condo in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores with conventional financing, 20 and 25% down.

I recommend Jennifer Griffin and her great team at Small Business Specialists in Virginia Beach.

We keep half an eye on the Leland area and areas north of Myrtle Beach (up to Loris/Tabor City) for future potential.
