Bill and Valerie Kachura These two Jersey residents (of fifteen years) made their way to the North Carolina Coast because of all of the “cliché” reasons as they called them...harsh weather, high taxes and bad traffic.  “Did I mention the weather?!” Bill chimed in once more. “We felt like when we stopped working that it was time for us to move on,” Valerie said. And, move on they did…right to Brunswick Forest!  However, the journey to finding Brunswick Forest as they recall wasn’t quite that easy. “We visited communities up and down the East Coast without finding that special something” Bill said.  “We began to think we were going back to Jersey,” Valerie remembers.  “But, then we found it!  Brunswick Forest was the last stop on our trip and we just knew it.  From the pools and other am... 09/07/2011

We went to an open house at Grayson Park.  The developers were there and were very excited about their product.  It is in the coast area of North Carolina and close to Wilmington NC and Southport NC. They have a very good product with a very affordable price point in the 150K range.  They offer three bedrooms and two baths. The community has pools and tennis court along with a playground for children. Too good to be true...but it is. 03/25/2011
