Question
These images show the damage to part of New
Jersey from Hurricane Sandy. Notice the bridge
from the mainland to the island on the far left
side of the photos. Would you want to buy a
house on this island based on what has
happened to the houses during Hurricane
Sandy?
Yes, but only if I know someone else is
going to pay to fix it after the next
hurricane hits.
Maybe, depending on the price.
Yes, What a great view from this island.
NO! It is not worth the hassle of
evacuation, damage to all my stuff and
the major disruptions every time there is
a hurricane.
