October may be all about ghosts, goblins and pumpkins to some in Onslow County NC, but to many residents living in Hubert, Swansboro, Jacksonville or stationed at Camp LeJeune Marine base; it's all about the fabulous fall fishing! The fishing is at its best in the Fall. The water has cooled down and the fish are heading back to the inshore waters all along the coast of North Carolina.

Ready to Buy A Home in Hubert, Swansboro or Jacksonville NC?

Cynthia Tilghman, Realtor® Onslow County NC Home Specialist: Real Estate Agent in Hubert, NC

There's more to buying a home than just finding the one that has the right number of bedrooms, is in the neighborhood Welcome to Onslow County NCof your choice or located near school or work.

Here's four questions you should ask and answer:

  1. Have you researched the market? Knowing what homes are selling for in the area you want to buy will help you understand and determine what you will have to spend to get the home you want and/or need.

  2. Do you know how much house you can afford? A mortgage payment should not exceed more than 25% of your gross monthly earnings. Mortgage payments that exceed 1/4 of your income could lead to financial troubles.

  3. Do you have enough money for a down payment and closing costs? Down payments vary but a safe plan is 20% of the selling price. Closing costs range from 2% to 7%. The exception is a VA loan which requires no downpayment. If you qualify for a VA loan, by all means that is the way to go!

  4. Is your credit report accurate? Incorrect information on your credit report can cost you more money in higher interest rates. Request reports from the three major national credit bureaus and reports mistakes immediately. Then, follow up and make sure mistakes are corrected.

So, are you ready? If so give me a call and let's get started.

Along the Southeast Coast of Carolina!

Wilmington, Hampstead, Holly Ridge,   Topsail, Sneads Ferry, Jacksonville: Real Estate Agent in Jacksonville, NC

Each Fall, I am always amazed by the changes that take place on Topsail Island and, I would expect, in communities and neighborhoods up and down the coast. School reopens, vacationers head home and Harvest Festivals, county fairs and the North Carolina State Fair become the topics of conversation. It is a great time of year!

Real estate in coastal North Carolina began its recovery starting in November of 2008. Jacksonville and Wilmington have led the return to more normal market levels. Homes priced $300,000. and under move from listed to sold quickly. We continue to work our way through short sales and foreclosures out on the beach, so there are still some excellent opportunities. Our new home community in Hubert, The Highlands at Queens Creek and the homes that we have under construction in Richlands are generating sales and presales. Our community in Holly Ridge, Sage's Ridge has one of the best price points in the area, and is located midway between Wilmington and Jacksonville and only ten minutes from the beaches of Topsail Island. Prices there begin at $154,900. Sales are being driven by the $8000. tax credit, various builder incentives and an increase of military into the Jacksonville/Swansboro/Richlands/Hubert/Holly Ridge area.

So, whatever brings you to southeastern North Carolina, be it service to your country, retirement, relocation, a vacation or second home on the beach, we hope you'll consider us as a resource.
