Not a realtor so can't give you the prices...but I think $80k is RIDICULOUS.....ugh, Holden Beach is my least favorite of the Brunswick County beaches by far. The people I know who are *local* and lifetime residents, a lot of (not all) say the same thing- there is just a different feel there. My granddaddy always went fishing there, from the Charlotte area- it was more affordable than the other beaches. And that's what I hear now, as far as people looking for lots or homes, Holden Beach is more affordable than the other beaches, but I would not want to live there. I consider myself as living close enough to Holden, by living in Ocean Isle Beach. That's as close as I want to go, too.
Offer low, and you maybe can get a lot for$20-25k..might can catch someone motivated to sell...
