Please keep this in mind about real estate-It is local-Very local. Just becasue a market is high priced doesn't necessarily mean you can't find something within a certain budget.
For example where I live along the Crystal Coast. In less than a 5 minute drive-litterally less than 5 minutes-I can take you from $7-800K homes to $2-300K homes. Both neighborhoods very nice-Just one alot more pricey.
Follow this link:
Click Here It takes you to a sample page of locally produced music video's of the Crystal Coast. There are a lot of aerials and underwater footage of the Crystal Coast. It shows off the area very well.
I'll give the MODS a heads up-These video's are for sale. I have no association or interests in the website or company. Just that they have these free video samples of the area that are gorgeous I thought folks may enjoy. I hope the link is not deleted.
