Outer Banks Insurance can be different than inland. Here’s a link to some frequently asked questions about insurance here. When getting insurance quotes for your purchase it is a good idea to look at a few different sources. Many homeowners get a discount on their vacation home by using the same insurance carrier they use for their primary residence. However, it is not always the least expensive way to go. It is a good idea to get quotes from at least one local insurance company.
Oftentimes out of state insurance carriers don’t fully understand North Carolina and/or beach insurance issues. Because these companies are local and write hundreds of local policies, they may know a way to save you money.
