Vacationers Help Coastal Communities Sell Luxury Home

By Hubert Miles

Talk about luxury homes on the ocean and you'll probably picture waves crashing on the coast with large homes overlooking sand dunes. These mental images likely came from a trip to some of the most famous beaches in the United States. This images offer many fond memories and offer families a rich heritage to build off of.

Some of the most beautiful destinations for tourism are small historic towns and large urban cities along the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coastlines of the USA. Markets like this help to drive the real estate markets for not only the immediate areas, but in some cases the entire state.

Quiet resort towns like Plymouth, Massachusetts and the Outer Banks of NC provide opportunities for those looking to own a piece of history. These historic towns are rich in historical significance. Many of these coastal areas are small fishing villages that have some sort of historical impact on the United States.

Of the new construction properties, perhaps the most popular home choices are the fantastic condo developments that line the coast. These beautiful condos offer fantastic ocean views, spacious open living spaces, gourmet kitchens, master bedroom suites and a reduce maintenance lifestyle that is attractive to retirement couples and second home owners.

Recent years have seen the evolution of these coastal towns and urban areas in very different ways. Urban areas have created thriving investment atmospheres with vacation rentals forming a solid backbone for the real estate industry. Smaller coastal towns still struggle to maintain their sense of history and independence. Many preserve their way of life through enforcing zoning ordinances that put restrictions on commercial construction.
