In this episode of the series, Luke Carl explores the Outer Banks market with Meg, a Short Term Shop agent who’s lived there since 2011, breaking down the barrier-island geography, investor-friendly townships from Corolla to Nags Head, and how festivals and off-season events stretch demand beyond summer. They cover access and “between-the-highways” location dynamics, hurricane/erosion realities and a live example: a semi-oceanfront 4BR listed around $850K—where adding a pool can materially lift gross to ~$120K.
