What to check before you buy waterfront in Rocky Point

  • Flood zone and insurance. Ask for the elevation certificate and get flood insurance quotes before you make an offer. Premiums depend on the flood zone and the home's elevation and can vary widely between neighbors.
  • What kind of water it is. Navigable river, sound or waterway frontage, a canal, a lake or a pond can all be listed as waterfront. Confirm you can actually reach open water if you plan to keep a boat.
  • Water depth at low tide. On tidal water, check depth at mean low water at the end of the dock for the boat you plan to own.
  • Docks, piers and bulkheads. New or expanded docks, piers and bulkheads in North Carolina coastal waters need a CAMA permit from the NC Division of Coastal Management. Ask whether existing structures were permitted and what condition they are in.
  • HOA and town rules. Read the rules on community slips, boat size, lifts and rentals before you write an offer.
