1) The spec builders aren't buying it 2) Prices are lowest they have been in years 3) It is a great investment over time- 1000% appreciation over the last 10 years 4) Less maintenance than purchasing a home. This is the most affordable in town lot on the market: Located on West Chester St, the oldest street on the island it is an over-sized, conforming town lot available for $795,000. Amazing value. |
