Holden Beach, NC

The Federal Citizen Information Center (FCIC) recommends hiring a home inspector before deciding to purchase your home. Purchasing a home is an important decision, one that will be with you for multiple years. Therefore, you need to know the condition of the property to avoid any costly issues and repairs. You would not want to purchase a car from a private owner without having a mechanic check it out, why would you purchase a home on the word of the owner who is trying to get rid of it or an agent that does not specialize in home inspection?

A qualified home inspector will make an unbiased, expert evaluation of the true condition of the Holden Beach real estate property. They will inspect the structure, construction, mechanical systems (i.e. heating, cooling, electrical, plumbing, etc.), identify what should be repaired or replaced, and the remaining life of such systems.

The inspector will not provide you with an appraisal just a written statement of the homes condition.

Try to find an inspector that is knowledgeable in the market that your property of interest is located. Ask your Holden Beach real estate agent about finding a qualified home inspector.

Town commissioners on Tuesday had a public hearing seeking input for an ordinance to establish an annexation agreement between Holden Beach and the towns of Shallotte and Ocean Isle Beach.

After outlining the current town limits to the public, Mayor Alan Holden said the agreement was for the town of Shallotte to incorporate any of the areas toward the Intracoastal Waterway, Holden Beach and Ocean Isle Beach along the Shallotte River.

While no Holden Beach residents spoke during the public hearing, several Shallotte Point residents expressed their concerns to commissioners.

Tje problem right now is multi-family development without planning, noting the town's satellite annexation has created a "hodge-podge" of zoning districts in Shallotte Point.

I feel that we live in a beautiful part of the world, and we have an opportunity to become a model of how coastal development should proceed

The town urged commissioners not to approve the annexation agreement without further planning for the future development of Shallotte Point.

Commissioners took no action on the agreement following the public hearing.

Located a 1/2 mile from the Holden Beach bridge and a short walk from the Inter Coastal Waterway; Live Oakes is a prime gated perfectly positioned yet secluded alone.

9000 square feet lots with beach style homes ranging from 2000 to 5000 square feet. Most communities now have hundreds of home sites where the setting here is opposite. The goal is to seclude the beach life into its own environment.

All necessary amenities are here with proper road side drainage plus a private community sewer pump station which is rare to see at this time.
