Why buyers like Lincoln

Lincoln gives you room without a long drive. Many properties sit on larger lots, some with river views, and both Oromocto and Fredericton are close. The Trans-Canada Highway runs along its southern edge, so getting around is easy.

What to know before you buy

  • Well and septic are common. Plan for water testing and a septic inspection as conditions in your offer.
  • Check flood history on riverfront lots. Ask about past spring freshets and look at flood mapping before you go firm. I'll help you find the right questions.
  • Home styles vary a lot, from older bungalows to newer builds, so compare carefully.
