Why not live in the triangle and have a condo at the beach? I live near the coast and it is overrated IMO.

I have a plan for marketing to the research triangle, even though I will be based in Wilmington. Please tell me what you all think. I will set up my main office in Wilmington, where I plan to live. I will also have a "virtual office" in Raleigh/Durham where I will have a local (Raleigh/Durham) address, and local phone number, and a place to meet with clients...maybe once or twice a week.

That way I can get the best of both worlds, coastal living, and not lose out on patent and trademark work in the Research Triangle. I would love to hear what you all think, thanks!

I don't know in detail what you work entails. Do clients really want face-time from you? How important is that to cultivating business?

The virtual office sounds OK, but it could look like you would rather be a "beach bum" than work on your client's business.
