Living in a gated community is a matter of personal taste but here at the beach in Gulf Shores, potential buyers (for the most part) aren't particularly searching for neighborhoods or complexes that are gated.
I think most buyers search online for a property and when they find out that it's gated, they don't mind at all. That's what happened to me when I purchased a condo in Gulf Shores. I do think that the pros outweigh the cons for having a gate at the entrance of your neighborhood.
Gulf Shores does have its share of gated communities. So, for those who find this feature appealing, this article is for you.
