Sharing my love for the Greater Wilmington, NC Area.
As a Realtor® and native to the area, I love sharing what Wilmington NC (home of the North Carolina Azalea Festival) has to offer. From the Beach communities to the Historic Downtown and everything in between. I created my channel to educate you about what life is like here from a local's perspective. I grew up in the small town of Burgaw, North Carolina (home of the North Carolina Blueberry Festival) just about 25 miles northwest of Wilmington. Wilmington was the BIG city when I was a kid and I have seen many changes to the area of the years. Welcome to my channel and I hope you enjoy yourself, have some laughs and hopefully learn a few things.

Negotiations During Due Diligence
Due Diligence is your time to investigate and negotiate. Decided what you can and can't live with after you do all your inspections. This is the time to request repairs from the seller. Also a time to negotiate purchase price should the appraisal come in too low. A good agent will help you navigate these waters and help you determine if the property is right for you.

That would be a great birthday present for you!! Enjoy!

Carolina Beach has always had a bad reputation due all the bars. Growing up on Wrightsville in the early 70’s, there was not that problem. Mainly surfers smoking a little weed. Also the price to stay/live in Wrightsville was quite expensive where by Carolina Beach was a flea bag market. However, that was not the case for Kure Beach.
Absolutely Gorgeous 😍 Yes, please
Yes it is! And still available!! :)
Good list. You should consider fork n cork downtown.
Sir whatever kind of problems your channel has I will fix all kinds of problems and take your channel till monetization Interested in monetizing your channel?
Nice house, but must not have a kitchen!
Hey Denise - LOL It does have a kitchen. Unfortunately, when I shot this there was an open house going on and everyone was back there believe it or not. It's a small galley kitchen across the back of the home.
This was helpful. Thank you 😃
Hey Bill. I came across your channel while doing some research on Wilmington. Then I realized that you were actually referred to me by someone I worked with here in DC who is now a realtor in Charlotte, Ian Leonard. My wife and I are considering a move & visiting soon to check the vibe. We should catch up

I came to the coast with some fishing buddies in 1970, got lost and have been here ever since. The one perk you omitted that directly benefits Senior Homeowners is that our property taxes are reduced to 50% of the published rate the first full year after your 65th birthday (you must notify the Tax Dept. as it is not automatic). That means that while the $300,000 home owned by a "Gen Z" couple would be paying about $2,565.00, the Senior Citizen couple would only be paying about $1,284.00 a year in property taxes. I also remember that when I moved down here in 1970, Wilmington was so quiet, they rolled the streets up at night during the Fall & Winter months. As far as the traffic goes, I travelled back and forth to New York City 2 to 3 times a month on business. Wilmington traffic is nothing compared to "The City". The traffic problem in Wilmington is that people simply don't know how to drive.
You make it look so easy bud! Great video.
Thank you Matt!
Do you need a permit to add an electric fireplace, extra windows, or close in a covered porch with screens?
Hey Elizabeth - it wouldn't hurt to ask the city or county if permits are needed for such improvments, but I would doubt it. Especially for adding screen to a porch or using an electric fireplace. Anytime you are adding sq footage, changing electrical or making any significant improvements to a home, you should consider permits. Permits are good for documenting the money spent and most definitley for safety!! Good Luck!!
@@PortCityLivingNC Thank you for your suggestion!
I have watched a lot of your videos which are very informative. Thank you for posting ❤️
Thank you for that! Really appreciat it and I enjoy bringing information to you about the Wilmington area!!
@@PortCityLivingNC i hope you do a video from a diverse perspective meaning culturally….
@@mickeyplatt4915 hey Mickey. Text me 910-409-7818. Let’s chat on this topic.
Beautiful city! Thanks.
it's my pleasure to share it with you!!
Helpful...thank you!
Its my pleasure....let me know if there is anything else about the Wilmington area you need to know. :)
Of course I would have gotten the answer wrong, but the only movie I could think of was "Firestarter" that starred Drew Barrymore.
But Firestarter is a great guess! It was the first movie ever filmed in Wilmington!!
As a walker and a former Wilmington resident (way back in the 80's), this looks like a great walking route. I did a couple sections of the walk back in December when I was there for a day. I can almost smell the marsh looking at this. Thanks. -H
Hey - if you get bak this way, be sure and check out the loop - it's an awesome place to be and enjoy the scenery!! Also the Halyburton Park in Wilmington is a good trail as well.
Back in the late 60's used to go camp out with the hermit and wild man.
That’s so awesome!!
Who is your Father ?
Darth Vadar - lol Kidding,.... My father has the same name.
Moving too Wilmington June 27th I love our coast I have lived in Newport NC I moved to VA in march and I’m already moving back to our coast I also love the beach in the fall because my son was still swimming in October I can’t wait
Back in 1967 or 68 a group of us put bubble bath soap in the fountain at Third and Market;those were the good days in Wimington the way natives say it.
ive been to many beaches and to me non has ever been better than this beach.
You are correct!!!
@@PortCityLivingNC Carolina beach has a bad rep and always has but that's just because of the boardwalk area in the evening time.
Well technically you were correct… If the Azalea festival started in 1948… then the last time it did NOT happen since 2020 was 1947!
Next time visit the point off 17th st extension. There's the best Mexican restaurant there called zocalos
Hi Mia - that is a great restaurant and I literally love within walking distance!!
We were just there February whole area is outstanding we were lucky enough to have really warm weather
Glad you enjoyed your time here. Hurry back!!
Her knife skills could use some work
The traffic gives me so much anxiety I really hate it. So much so that I plan on leaving after I develop my career a little longer. It's a nice area but driving around is so stressful to the point where I don't want to go out.
Hey Gubert - I am sorry that you get anxiety when you drive in Wilmington. I have found that if I just go at my own pace and let everyone just go around, I handle it much better. Some days I get out there and there is hardly any traffic....very odd. Im sorry to hear that you may leave the area after you develop your career, but I totally understand. Until then, drive safely!!
hey bro- I do drone work -- Love Carolina Beach and surroundings because I moved here in 1971.... need any shots- let me know...
Hey Rick - thanks for reaching out. I will definitely keep that in mind. If you can, shoot me an email with your pricing. Thanks!
