Brunswick County · Home Value

What Is Your Brunswick County Home Worth?

A real number from someone who knows the comps, not an automated guess.

A Quick Note

This page is general information, not an appraisal and not legal, tax, or insurance advice. A valuation is my professional opinion of a likely sale price based on recent sales, and only a licensed appraiser produces an appraisal. I am a real estate professional, and my part is pricing your home to sell.

Your Brunswick County Home Value Is Not Your Revaluation Notice

Your Brunswick County home value is about to get a second opinion from the county. The countywide revaluation takes effect January 1, 2027, and notices go out between February and March 2027. That notice is the county's mass-appraisal value for taxes, built by grouping similar properties and applying consistent models as of one date. It is not what a buyer will pay for your house next month. Local to Coastal Realty builds a comparative market analysis from real sales on your island or in your town, what is under contract now, and what sat.

What Moves Value Here

Which side of the bridge. An island house and a mainland house are different markets, and Bald Head Island, reachable only by ferry, is its own. I compare inside the same market first.

The tax total. Buyers notice that the 2026 totals run from 0.342 per $100 in unincorporated county to 0.652 in Southport and Shallotte. A house just outside a town line can compete on payment.

Flood, wind, and rental history. Lenders require flood insurance on a federally backed loan for a building in a Special Flood Hazard Area, and buyers price the premium in. A house with a weekly rental history draws buyers who plan to keep renting it, and they read the booking records closely.

If You Disagree With the County's Number

That is a separate question from your sale price. The county's revaluation timeline describes an informal review where owners can ask the tax office to look at their property data and value, followed by the Board of Equalization and Review. Recent comparable sales can help that conversation, and I am glad to pull them for you whether or not you are selling.

What I Need From You

Your address, updates and when they were done, any elevation certificate, current flood and wind premiums, rental history and future bookings if it is rented, anything that needs work, and your timeline. Then you choose: list now, fix a few things first, or wait. If you list, read selling your home in Brunswick County. Get in touch or call (336) 516-4136 for your number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my 2027 revaluation notice what my house will sell for?

No. It is the county's tax value as of January 1, 2027, from mass appraisal. A sale price comes from what buyers pay, which I measure with recent comparable sales.

Can I question the county's new value?

The county describes an informal review with the tax office and then the Board of Equalization and Review. Recent comparable sales can help.

Is the valuation free?

Yes, with no obligation to list.
