Investor decision lens
Waterfront is not one variable.
The exact line of sight, beach access, legal boundary, construction phasing, salt-air maintenance and competing coastal supply must be visible before the premium can be judged.
Confirm unit direction and possible future obstruction on current plans.
Water view, beachfront and private beach are not interchangeable claims.
Roads, retail and community facilities may arrive on different timelines.
Landscape, beach and shared amenities can affect recurring ownership costs.
