These are town features, not private community amenities.

What Are the HOA Fees in Long Beach?

Recent listings do not show one HOA for this area. Some streets may have recorded covenants or a small association, so ask me and I will confirm for the exact address before you write an offer.

What Types of Homes Are in Long Beach?

You will find oceanfront homes, beach houses a row or two back, canal homes, and lots. A recent oceanfront listing on East Beach Drive had 6 bedrooms and an elevated pool.

Can You Rent Out a Home in Long Beach?

Check the recorded covenants and any HOA rules before you plan on rentals. The Town of Oak Island has its own rental rules too, so confirm both before you buy.

What Should Buyers Know About Long Beach?

East Long Beach and West Long Beach show up as separate names in the MLS. This page covers all three. Row from the ocean drives price more than the section name.

What Should You Check Before Buying in Long Beach?

Deed restrictions. Even without an HOA, a lot can have recorded restrictions. Your closing attorney can pull them before you commit.
Oceanfront rules. Ask about erosion history, setback lines, and any beach nourishment assessments for homes on or near the oceanfront.
Dock and bulkhead. Have docks, lifts, and bulkheads inspected. Ask about permits and CAMA rules for any work you plan.
Flood zone. Check the FEMA flood map for the exact address. Some Oak Island streets near the marsh, canals, and the Intracoastal 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.

Thinking About Selling Your Long Beach Home?

In a balanced market, the first two weeks matter most. Price it right, show it well, and you give buyers a reason to act now. I build every pricing plan on recent sales in Long Beach and nearby, not a town-wide average.

A rare opportunity to build your custom home on this oceanfront site located on Oak Island. All necessary preparations are already in place. This homesite offers more than an incredible coastal setting--it offers the peace of mind that comes with extensive due diligence already completed, including environmental studies and a letter from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers confirming no wetlands jurisdiction. The property also benefits from the Town of Oak Island's recent 2025/2026 beach nourishment project, adding to the long-term stewardship of this treasured stretch of coastline. Years of meticulous landscaping and dune maintenance by current owner have created thick, established vegetation throughout the dunes, providing a beautiful natural buffer while enhancing the property's coastal character. The previous building envelope reflected a 46' x 34' buildable footprint, not including decks, there's flexibility to create the oceanfront home you've envisioned--whether a private coastal retreat, vacation rental investment, or both. Buyers are advised to conduct their own survey to confirm building envelope. And the location makes enjoying Oak Island effortless. Spend the morning on the beach, then walk, bike, or take your golf cart to Middleton Park, local shops, restaurants, parks, and, of course, everyone's favorite--ice cream! Oceanfront homesites are rare. A property with this level of preparation, established dune vegetation, and convenient access to the heart of Oak Island is even harder to find.
