This Florida City Makes List Of Cheapest Places In the US To Buy A Beach House.

When you think of owning a beach house, you may see nothing but dollar signs. Yes, you will pay more to live waterfront, but there are some cities in the country that make living beachside a little bit more affordable. It’s amazing to me, even after Ian, to see what houses on Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel and Captiva are selling for. Or even just the land a home was once on.

I’ve always dreamed of living on the beach. I don’t even need anything extravagant. Just a little cottage for me and my pup would be perfect. I love the thought of waking up to the soothing sound of crashing waves. Walking out my back door and feeling the sand between my toes. Let’s also not forget about watching those sunsets with a tropical cocktail in hand.

If you’re looking for property, to live on yourself or as a rental, getting the most bang for your buck is important. Realtor.com put together a list of the cities in the U.S. where you can find beachside homes at the most affordable price. Some are right on the water, some are within one-mile of the beach. In Florida, we know real estate is high, but the cheapest place to buy a beach house is in Navarre, up in the panhandle. It came in at #7 on the list.
