LANDMARK SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY
63
1405 W. Main Street in Sunset Beach sold for just under $3 million.
property at 50 E. First Street closed for $2.45 million after spend-ing
49 days on market.
“People who purchase in Ocean Isle are looking for an invest-ment
that they can actually use, a place that will allow their family
to enjoy the beach, but that will also bring substantial income,”
says Sarah Harris of Intracoastal Realty.
The average sale price in the county increased by 16.25 per-cent,
but this did not slow the pace of sales. The sales volume
in Brunswick showed a nearly 50 percent increase from 2019,
while the number of active listings decreased by nearly 30
percent, and the number of pending sales rose by almost 82
percent.
“Sales went the opposite direction of what we anticipated with
COVID,” Blake says.
The numbers are in line with what the rest of the country wit-nessed
over 2020. There was 22 percent less inventory versus the
same time a year ago, and median home prices across the United
States rose by 14.6 percent, to $310,000.
