Spring Has Sprung

Today was busy and a great sign of things to come for the spring and early summer. This afternoon I closed a deal in Cadillac with a client for a cabin on Bear Creek. This happened to be a bank owned property that was under contract and we had been watching. The other party withdrew their offer, the bank changed realtors and we put together an offer almost immediately. It was a case of hurry up and wit and it paid off! We had an accepted offer from the bank the first of April and it finally closed today. Congratulations goes to Kate and her new cabin on Bear Creek! Thank you.
Also, this afternoon I got a great new listing on a wonderful little, 73 acre private lake, in the northern edge of Lake county, Cool Lake. This is the head waters of a tributary creek to the Little Manistee and the lake gets salmon, steelhead and brown trout that come up it and some end up staying. There is no public launch and it is a great little lake that is only 50 minutes from Traverse City, 20 minutes to Manistee and in the heart of great rivers, trail systems and the National Forests of Northwestern Lower Michigan. This is a turnkey cabin that would be suitable for year around living as well with the dock, pontoon, fishing boat swim raft to all stay! Oh, yeah not to mention a 28X40 drive thru pole barn for all the toys! On the market last year for $369,900 and back on the market this year at $289,900, making this an incredible deal.
While I was in the listing meeting I received a signed contract back of acceptance of a counter offer made earlier this week for one of my seller’s on a lot on the Betsie River. That should close in the next two weeks. Things are moving in a positive direction and there has been quite a bit of interest in the properties we have on the website. Now is a great time to buy. Drop me an e-mail at brian@homewaters.net if you have any questions on this great new listing on Cool Lake.
