P R O P E R T Y & I N V E S T M E N T MANY HAPPY RETURNS While the turnover of property owners and residents remains low – because nobody really wants to leave – those who do sell score financially, as property prices at Atlantic Beach have increased by 93% over the last five years. This, White believes, has been assisted by the estate’s very successful marketing strategy, in conjunction with Pam Golding Properties Western Seaboard, which leverages national and international marketing exposure, and also by the proactive and professional board, who are prepared to take decisions, and then allow the management team to get on with heir work. The board, White explains, meets for annual strategy sessions that ‘examine every department of the estate in detail and provide us with a per department tick list of what we want to accomplish. While this might sound simplistic, it works very well for us and enables us to come up with many interesting and different things to implement.’ BOTTOM LINE Whether you’re looking for a great investment that happens to be a wonderful place to live, or you’re hunting for the perfect home that, if you decide to move, will give you a good return, you can’t do much better than Atlantic Beach. atlanticbeachestate.co
