North Carolina Boys

what insurance? i can't get any thanks to Clinton. after the 2 hurricanes of 96. Personally i would steer you clear of the Northern part of the NC coast. there is nothing up there and miles to any major city or airport. stay from Beaufort south if you go coastal. Willy email Linda Shingleton she's with Coastland Reality in Carteret County. She could send you some info on what is in that area. Plus she's not bad looking either.

Let Linda put her 25 years of experience and exceptional service to work for you. She will help you find the best value for your real estate investment dollars and have fun along the way.
My real estate career began in Kinston, North Carolina in 1983. Helping others has always been important to me. I loved helping buyers find that first home, helping growing families find larger homes. working with newcomers, and especially seniors sizing down or moving closer to family. I was among the top producers and also served as President of the Board of Realtors.
Emerald Isle has been part of my life since early childhood, which was during the ferry days. I grew up vacationing here; and as a teenager coming on the weekends. I knew one day I would live at the Beach. After marrying and having two children, we were able to buy a getaway at Emerald Isle. This was a dream come true. It's a great way to spend more time with your kids and meet their friends.
After my husband died in 1994 and my kids were on their own, I moved to Emerald Isle and started a new life and career with CENTURY 21 Coastland Realty, a great company and a great move for me. Working at the Beach is such a fun market. I love helping buyers find that perfect second home or just the right investment property. I especially love when customers come back to me or refer a friend or family member. What a compliment! My office wall display achievements and awards I have earned; my favorite are quality service awards and Centurion.
When I am not working, I'm playing. I like yoga, tennis, dancing, reading on the Beach, and I am the greatest grandma. My work has enabled me to meet so many people and make so many friends. I love what I do and also try to do my best. Let me put my best to work for you.

Willy:

If your going to live your considering living on the coast and communting to NJ - you better added a significant amount of time to your travel time to account for "summer" traffic getting off the outter banks. It's a real mess during the rental season. It's been improved, but there is still no "easy" way to get from the Outter Banks to the CCBT tunnel to run up Hwy 13.

Kamikaze
 
While I absolutely love the outerbanks I don't think I'd live there. They do get hammered from time to time by the canes. I was there 2 weeks before Isabelle hit several years ago. The cottages we stayed in along with the local watering hole right across the street got completely wiped out. Not far down the highway the storm tore a new inlet dubbed "Isabelle Inlet" from ocean to sound. Big enough for pretty good sized boats to pass through.....before they filled it back in, which was an amazing feat of engineering IMO.
 
Willy, Kittyhawk is one of the high spots on the island and there are some nice places for sale there now. A close friend of mine lives on the soundside there. The sound side is a little more protected from the ocean tides and winds. Theres probley plenty of work for you there. If you want to live on the mainland Currituck is north and very close by, just across the sound bridge. Ocracoke is my favorite spot because of its history, natural beauty and pristine beaches. The people are nice and its very relaxing there. Everything is done at a much slower pace there . Theres no crime there since you can only leave by boat or ferry service so not much work for ya there unless you change professions. If I could pick a spot to retire it would definately be Ocracoke though. Great fishing, beautiful water and beaches, good food and nice folks. If you've never been to Ocracoke you should definately take a trip down there! Manteo is another place you might want ta check out. Its a little more protected and surrounded by water. Theres probley some job opportunities there also.
 
Thanks guys your are giving me a lot to think about and my wife and I are planning a trip or two to check out areas, keep those spots to check coming, so far I might be living next to Skools though, Boats are in my life and if you had to live near someone who better!!

And Ozzie, for some of us it is history, for some people is just memories, right you old coot. And don't forget about that phone call

I got yer number Big Boy...livin ON the water ain't so important as livin' NEAR it...as you described w/your setup, just a few minutes from the dry-stack and you're sailin'!!...:clap:
 
Oh and Franco called me last night and gave a full lesson on how to talk like a Carolina boy, so I am prepared. I know all the slang so I won't get confused when talking with yall
 
First and foremost we gotta teach him how to talk. Gonna have to SLOOOOOOW IT DOOOOWN, use the word "ain't" in at least every other sentence and find good uses for words like "reckon" and "yonder".

Here is your first lesson:

"Well fellers, the fish ain't a bitin rite here. I reckon we should try over yonder."

:hide:
