LELAND, N.C. , Jan. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What makes coastal real estate different from inland homebuying? According to Joyce Nunes of Intracoastal Realty, buyers near the Intracoastal Waterway must navigate more than just price and square footage. In HelloNation, Nunes outlines how environmental factors, floodplain regulations, and permitting complexities make local real estate broker knowledge indispensable in southeastern North Carolina.
Homes near marshes, estuaries, and tidal inlets often require elevation certificates and specialized insurance, and may be subject to dock permitting and erosion setback rules. These factors are rarely top of mind for buyers from outside the region, yet they can have major implications for ownership costs and construction feasibility. Local real estate professionals familiar with Leland waterfront homes and regional development patterns can prevent costly delays by anticipating these requirements early.
In the article, Nunes emphasizes the value of working with professionals who have strong networks with surveyors, lenders, insurers, and builders who specialize in flood zone property guidance. This network can help buyers distinguish between listings that look appealing and those that perform well over time—structurally and financially.
Why Coastal Real Estate Requires More Than Market Knowledge underscores that in Leland and neighboring communities, coastal real estate expertise means knowing more than market trends. It means understanding the land, the legislation, and the long-term responsibilities that come with waterfront living.

BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
