Lakefront Home Ownership is a Lifestyle!
Whether you canoe, kayak, swim, paddle board, water ski, boat, fish, play hockey, snowshoe, skate or simply enjoy the nature and lake wildlife being able to enjoy our area’s most precious natural resources from your backyard or deeded lake lot drives many homeowners to explore the possibility of a waterfront home. When considering the purchase of a waterfront home, it’s important to decide the type of home you are looking for as well as the nature of the waterfront property itself. Lake homes typically sell for a higher dollar per square foot compared to homes not on the water AND the type of waterfronts vary -- you may prefer to be on the main body of water or possibly purchase a larger house on a canal that leads to the main body of water. Each body of water; river, canal, pond or lake big and small have their own nuances and lend themselves to particular activities. To get started, please see the summary of Oakland County Lakes below.
Other Waterfront Considerations:
- Private lakes vs public access lakes
- All-sports vs electric or no motor lakes
- Small vs large lakes
- Type of activity available on specific lakes (water ski course, tubing, or just fishing)
- Type of shoreline (sandy vs non-sandy bottom)
- Restrictions on lakes such as no-jet skis or limited hours of use
- Type of ownership (full vs limited)
A Realtor that has lived, or lives on a lake is uniquely qualified to help guide you through the process of selecting the right home that best fits your needs. Call me today to talk about waterfront properties currently available or to talk about selling your lakefront home. Let me show you how I can used my considerable knowledge and experience to help you with your next move.
