Targeting sellers of beach property after hurricane

Targeting sellers of beach property after hurricane

In North Carolina, we have the occasional hurricane blow over the outer banks or other coastal areas. Some hurricanes are devastating, others do minor damage.

Has anyone marketed to owners of second homes, beach houses, following hurricanes to see if there is motivation to sell?

Curious if others have attempted this with any success, as it seems a plausible way to go about getting a deal on a second home or investment.

    We have seen STRONG buyer activity after hurricanes in SW Florida. Most people think that nobody would ever want to move there. The buyers flock in looking for deals. You can try marketing that way, but certainly don't wish a hurricane on yourself!

    Before putting in Offers, don't forget to VIEW the homes you want to buy!
