First-time STR - looking in and around Wilmington, NC

[Ross M.]

Hi all,

This post is to introduce myself and get involved with the BP community. My wife and I are NC residents near Durham and are finally ready to invest in real estate. We have owned 3 primary residences and sold 2 of them as we have relocated twice over the past 6 years.

We're really interested in building a diverse portfolio of properties in different locations and of different types. We want to start with a STR in a coastal area in NC, preferably in Wilmington, Carolina Beach, or Kure Beach. Eventually we'd like to have one around the Smoky Mountains, in addition to LTRs and multi-family around the state or beyond.

In short, we are just beginning our real estate investment journey and have lots to learn. We'll be reading lots of BP posts to get educated, and of course would welcome any advice, especially from those experienced in NC real estate.

Thanks!
