I don't often bring up my Real Estate career side of things in my posts on here; occasionally if I am doing a video and the topic comes up, or if I am doing a post on something that specifically comes from that side of my life, like a post about a good real estate attorney or something from my office. A follower asked me today how I get so many pictures of such diverse subject matter, and honestly, a lot of my pictures/videos/content come from things I experience as I travel around the area as Greg Moss, Realtor, Beaufort Realty.
That was the case tonight. I had been running all over the county today with things, but I ended up over off HWY 101. There is a group of properties I have listed there, and one of them closed today and I had to swap out the signs. I also had been waiting months for the sunset to get at the correct azimuth to be able to get good sunset photos off the waterfront lot: this evening it was finally where I could. In the summer, the sun is furthest north on the horizonal plane, so I had been waiting for months for it to creep south enough to get a good sunset photo shoot! This lot has spectacular sunset views but the best are from September to late spring when it has a direct line of sight of the setting sun. Did you know that we have approximately a 57 degree vector of where the sun sets throughout the year?
The sunset photos I get in the summer are quite different from the sunset photos I get in the winter, but they do have one thing in common; many of them are taken from waterfront properties where I have been blessed to work. Some of my most memorable evening photo shoots are from clients' westerly facing waterfront properties.
Whenever I bring up real estate on this, the Why Beaufort NC page, I am required to disclose that I am Greg Moss, Realtor, Beaufort Realty. That keeps me in compliance with both the NC Real Estate Commission and ethical guidelines. I don't post as much as my Greg Moss, Realtor, Beaufort Realty page as I do on here, but often the things you see on here are things that I experience going between showings, meetings, listing appointments, inspections, etc.
Recently I have had a number of folks, both sellers and people interested in real estate in the Crystal Coast area, have asked me if I could share more real estate info on here. I don't want this to be a specific real estate page. We (our area and I) are not defined solely by real estate, and I try to be as diverse in my posts as our area is. Can I cover everything, no, but on this Why Beaufort Page I try to cover as many segments of life here as I can, through my own personal lense, of course.
But there is no denying that Real Estate is a big part of my life and our area. In an effort to provide my clients, followers, and community with what many of you are asking for, I will do a little more real estate coverage on here, and I will endeavor not to make it covered to an annoying extent. Whenever I do include real estate topics on here, I will include that it is done in conjunction with the Greg Moss, Realtor, Beaufort Realty side of things.
Real estate decisions and choosing a real estate agent is one of the most personal and important decisions an individual, a couple, or a family can make. You are inviting them into your home, you are trusting them with one of your most expensive assets, and you are trusting them to work hard for you to help you achieve your current and future hopes and dreams. It is not a decision to be made lightly.
There are many excellent real estate agents in our area. I have been a good real estate agent for many folks in my 11.5 years of being an agent. Am I the right fit for everyone? No. Can I list and sell every property at the Crystal Coast? No, there is only one of me! For the clients I do work with, I work hard for them to be the best real estate agent I can be, whether I am helping them find the right home or land or sell their home or land. I am not trying to convince you to hire me as your agent, but if you are thinking of buying or selling property at the Crystal Coast, I would love to be considered!
There is no hiding I am a real estate agent, and I do prioritize that over the Why Beaufort NC page; I have to. It is my primary career, it is what pays for my family and much of what we do in the community, and when real estate is busier, I don't post as often. Everyone I have ever spoken to about that understands, and I appreciate your understanding!
Here is the link to the property I was visiting to photograph this evening, 851 Hwy 101, a 1.06 acre waterfront lot off of Wading Creek, just a few minutes north of downtown Beaufort.
