Excellent article in the Triangle Business Journal detailing the wealth that is pouring into North Carolina, with Brunswick County leading the way. The state’s reputation as a leading market for business growth, combined with its strategic positioning, continues to attract companies from across the country and within the state looking to start or expand in our premier coastal setting. When you're ready to Bring Your Business to the Beach, give the Carolinas Commercial Team with Sun Coast Partners Commercial a call.

"The state pulled in more than $13.5 billion in adjusted gross income from state-to-state migration between 2022 and 2023, according to the most recent data on tax filer migration from the Internal Revenue Service. Add in people who relocated from other countries, and the figure is close to $14 billion from approximately 173,500 tax filers.

But it was fast-growing Brunswick County on the coast that led statewide in terms of net gain in AGI with over $500 million added from only 8,000 filers moving in, highlighting the wealth flowing to the North Carolina coast. The county had a net gain of 3,500 in terms of tax filers.

And New Hanover County (Wilmington) ranked fourth statewide with $226 million in net change for AGI."

"Brunswick County’s residential real estate market closed out 2025 with record-breaking performance, surpassing $3 billion in total sales and setting new highs in overall residential activity.

“2025 was a truly historic year for Brunswick County real estate, with more than $3 billion in residential sales for the first time ever,” said Cynthia Walsh, CEO of the Brunswick County Association of REALTORS®. “The consistency we saw in 2025, especially from spring through summer, shows just how strong demand is for homes in our area. It also shows the hard work of over 1,100 BCAR members who represented buyers and sellers throughout the year, selling more than 6,300 homes.”

Fully built, turnkey bicycle sales and service operation with a substantial asset base already in place. The shop is actively operating with bikes, e-bikes, and in parts inventory, along with tools, repair equipment, and shop fixtures in place. A buyer can step in and operate immediately without needing to make additional capital investments.

Performance has continued to strengthen through the end of 2025, reflecting strong year-end momentum and consistent demand.
The business is being valued based on its earnings, its current inventory and equipment levels, and its turnkey nature — not as a lightly equipped operation.

Brunswick County has consistently held the title for the fastest-growing county in North Carolina, with an estimated 24% increase from 2020 to 2024. Brunswick County, NC and Horry County, SC ranked as the #1 and #2 counties to move by US News & World Report. This is an excellent opportunity to move into an established business in proximity to popular coastal destinations, providing a solid customer base for continued success.
