Port Aransas Home Tips
If you’re buying on the coast, here are a few things that can save you time and surprises:
- Confirm beach access style
“Near the beach” can mean different things. I’ll help you compare walking paths, access roads, and day-to-day convenience. - Understand condo vs. single-family costs
Condos may offer amenities and lower exterior maintenance, but you’ll want to review HOA dues, coverage, and restrictions. - Ask about short-term rental rules early
Rental permissions can depend on HOA policies, zoning/registration requirements, and community rules. I’ll help you filter listings based on your goals. - Plan for coastal insurance & inspections
Windstorm, flood zones, elevation certificates, roof age, windows, and exterior materials can all impact ownership costs. - Think about “use case” first
Are you buying for weekends, full-time living, a mix, or investment? Your best property type often becomes obvious once your use case is clear.
