Do you remember why you began the journey you're on?

As we all grind through our days, it's sometimes easy to forget the reason we originally began doing what we do.  Whether you became a teacher to improve your community or went to school to become a veterinarian because of your love of animals or went to work in a factory to carry on a long family tradition, we all began our journey for some specific reason.  For me it was striving to find a way to tie my passion for the outdoors and fly fishing with a business career of some sort that could provide financial security for my family.  I didn't necessarily find the profession of real estate, it found me as I stood in a fly shop tying flies. 

Since that time I've been very fortunate to assemble a number of other like minded individuals who were seeking a way to provide for their families without giving up their passion for the waterways and woodlands of northern Michigan.  We have the unique opportunity to introduce grandparents to the cottage where they'll teach their grandchildren to swim and ski and cook the perfect s'more.  We get to help retirees realize their dream of living in northern Michigan after a lifetime of hard work and responsible financial decision making.  We even get to help first time home buyers take that truly monumental leap of faith in purchasing their first home. 

Like everyone else, we don't always keep these thoughts at the forefront of our minds as we go through our busy work lives, but it doesn't take much to remind us of why we do what we do.  Watching a buyer's child skip a stone into the lake as we tour a possible property is usually more than enough.  If you're looking for a property in northern Michigan because of the lifestyle it provides and the setting to the water or woods is more important than the wallpaper, consider reaching out to one of the agents or brokers of Homewaters, L.L.C.  We share your passion and truly appreciate every opportunity we get to help people realize their dream of owning a northern Michigan property.  Click the image above to learn more about the agents, brokers and staff of Homewaters.
