Even have a great buy on a retirement home for you too. Take a look at this for only 90K.

Annual property taxes less than $600 (yep, thats not a misprint).
Wilmington is a nice area. I have often thought about a house like above for a winter home once retired. It also far enough away from the Duke fans!
