Spray Beach Real Estate Transactions in the First Quarter of 2015

Long Beach Island Real Estate

The real estate market on Long Beach Island has been witnessing a period of improved activity and higher prices. Much of this has to do with the opportunities created by Hurricane Sandy which has enabled buyers and current residents the chance to renovate or build new on Long Beach Island. This coupled with the upgrades made to the infrastructure of LBI and the planned beach replenishment project have helped to increase buyer activity and buyer confidence. This is highly evident in the Spray Beach real estate market as Spray Beach Real Estate Transactions in the First Quarter of 2015 were substantially higher than 2014.
