Many of the people buying in Leland have never crossed the Cape Fear River bridge before the week they start house hunting. The town's appeal is straightforward, new construction at a Brunswick County price, but the tradeoff is a commute into Wilmington that reads very differently on a map than it does at eight in the morning. That is a hard thing to evaluate from four states away.

Chris Baynes & Associates works with those buyers in two ways. Remotely, the team leans on virtual tour media and CAD-generated floor plans, so a house can be judged honestly without standing in it, and someone shopping from a distance is not relying on a builder's rendering. On the ground, Chris Baynes tells relocating buyers when a community, a lot, or a commute is not going to suit them, which is a conversation nobody selling a house is required to have.

Corporate moves are covered as well. The relocation department at Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage is tied into Global Mobility, ERC, and the other major relocation providers, so a transferee arriving under a company package is handled by people who know Brunswick County rather than a call center somewhere else.

Anyone relocating to Leland can begin with a call to Chris Baynes & Associates at 910-470-4408.
