Tidbit of the Week: 

A friend recently bought their first home in Brunswick County (think Southport, Oak Island, Leland, Holden Beach) so I’ve been spending a TON of time there!

I absolutely love it, it’s got that coastal charm without the abundance of traffic and you can ALWAYS find easy beach parking!!!

I’ve recently partnered with Middle Creek Village, a new community of homes in Bolivia with multiple floor plans from the low $200s to low $400s WITH resort style amenities (ad) Click here for more information on Middle Creek Village

🚗 Middle Creek Village is 20 min from Downtown Wilmington, Southport, Oak Island, and Holden Beach
