Why is Awendaw good for multi-family property owners?

Awendaw appeals to multi-family property owners mainly because larger, more affordable lots along Highway 17 allow more room for a second unit or a small multi-family building than a tighter, more expensive lot closer to downtown Charleston would allow. Its more rural zoning can also be more permissive for adding units, though that should always be confirmed with Charleston County before assuming it applies to a specific parcel. Lower land cost relative to nearby coastal towns can improve the math on a multi-family investment as well.
