What Should You Check Before Buying in A Place at the Beach I?
- HOA documents. Get the current budget, rules, rental rules, and any special assessments for A Place at the Beach I. Fees and rules change.
- Master policy. Ask what the association insurance covers and what your own HO-6 policy needs to cover inside the unit.
- Oceanfront rules. Ask about erosion history, setback lines, and any beach nourishment assessments for homes on or near the oceanfront.
- Flood zone. Check the FEMA flood map for the exact address. Some Ocean Isle Beach streets near the marsh, canals, and waterway sit in a flood zone, and others do not.
- Insurance quote. Get wind and flood quotes early. Coastal premiums can change your monthly payment more than the price does.
