It’s more important than ever to work with a REALTOR® who knows the Bay, the rivers, and the tributaries. If buying an existing river home or purchasing a waterfront lot for building is on your 2021 must-do list, read this short article first before starting your search.
With over 1,100 miles of shoreline, the Northern Neck of Virginia is a huge draw for people who want to live on the water full-time or second home buyers within a two-hour commute of the Neck who are considering a weekend and vacation getaway.
Consider first the kind of lifestyle you want to lead before purchasing a waterfront property. Are you looking forward to mooring your powerboat or sailboat to a dock in your backyard? Or, are you more interested in kayaking the shallow waters of the creeks that flow throughout the Northern Neck?
Or, are you just seeking a waterfront home with fantastic water views, sand beach, and an inviting screened porch that’s perfect for kicking back or entertaining?
Matching a property to the river lifestyle you want to lead is crucial to your long term satisfaction with your new river home. A REALTOR® from the Liz Moore & Associates team will show you the best possible options for the lifestyle you want to lead.
Our REALTORS® are also knowledgeable about local building codes and the Chesapeake Bay Preservation
Act regulations. They can recommend a bevy of choice contractors in the region and suggest local contacts to help you navigate the building process. They also know the local lenders who understand the challenges of building or buying an existing home in this rural, waterfront region.
Interest rates continue to be historically low. 2021 will be an ideal time to find and purchase the river home you’ve always wanted. And, Liz Moore & Associates REALTORS® will help you every step of the way, from your initial search all the way through closing.
