Long Beach Island Real Estate and Ship Bottom Real Estate Market Update

Ship Bottom NJ Real Estate

Ship Bottom, like the rest of Long Beach Island, was heavily impacted by Hurricane Sandy. Ship Bottom suffered extensive flooding on the bayside and in low areas. This plays into the Ship Bottom real estate market and has created an environment where storm damaged homes will be bought to redeveloped into new homes. While in the long term, this will be a positive for Long Beach Island, in the short term the average price of a single family home will be lower. Ship Bottom Real Estate Sales in the First Quarter of 2013 demonstrate this trend very well.
