Top Ten OBX Bang for Your Buck Properties

I am a real-estate junkie. As an OBX realtor, one of my absolute favorite parts of the job is driving around the beach, checking out the latest and greatest market finds. I love finding a property that is the best in its class, has unique features, or is just a plain good deal. 

In this Top Ten Properties blog series, I'd like to share the fruits of my labor with you! 

This week, we're focusing on bang-for-your-buck. The property round-up below ranges in price from $40k - $1.375mm — but they all have one thing in common. Each of these properties is an incredible steal, giving homebuyers a real chance to maximize their investment. 

Have I missed any great OBX deals? Leave a comment below!
