Shoreline considerations
Water levels change over time. Look at the shoreline in different seasons if possible and ask about vegetation, erosion and any seawall.
Flood-zone review
Many waterfront properties sit partly in a flood zone. Review FEMA maps, ask for an elevation certificate and get insurance quotes early.
Docks and water access
