Hey, I'm Carey McClure with KBT Realty. I'm here on Sea Aire Canal to talk to you a little bit about some neighborhoods in Supply, North Carolina.
This is one of the neighborhoods here. Even though it's just off of Holden Beach, and located on the Intracoastal Waterway, it's still considered to be a Supply address.
