Buying and Selling Corolla Real Estate
Buying Corolla real estate or selling Corolla real estate, you have come to the right place. Featuring the finest vacation homes, condos and land for sale that the Outer Banks has to offer, the Northern Outer Banks town of Corolla provides fantastic beaches and well-planned communities.
The Northernmost area of Corolla is also known as the 4-wheel drive area. The roads in North Corolla and Carova have never been paved and are literally sand paths. The 4-wheel drive area is a favorite of locals and vacationers alike as it offers great surfing and fishing.
People live in the 4-wheel drive area year round and in the Summer vacationers flock to the hundreds of vacation homes North of the paved road. On the weekends, you'll see 4-wheel vehicles lining the beach and families basking in the natural surroundings which include the famous Corolla wild horses roaming freely throughout the area.
I believe Corolla, along with the Town of Duck, offers the best possibilities for vacation rental homes and second homes on the Outer Banks. Just as each town in the Outer Banks is different, each subdivision in Duck and Corolla has its own unique appeal and offers different features for vacationers and owners.
Some subdivisions such as The Village at Ocean Hill, Corolla Light, Monteray Shores, Buck Island, Crown Point, Pine Island, The Currituck Club and some sections of Ocean Sands, were planned to offer community amenities which are paid for by each subdivision's homeowners in their homeowner's association fee.
Community amenities vary by subdivision but can include community pools, fitness centers, private club houses, tennis courts, and Oceanfront or Soundfront piers.
The other Corolla subdivisions of Swan Beach, Swan Island Estates, the Estates at Ocean Hill, Carova Village, Whalehead, Crown Point, Spindrift, and the remaining sections of Ocean Sands do not offer community amenities and therefore have no homeowner's association (HOA) fee.
I am committed to making buying and selling Outer Banks real estate in Corolla a pleasurable and rewarding experience. When you need an Outer Banks realtor, I'd appreciate your business.
