Lotus Lake Waterford MI
So you are debating whether to start search for a Waterford Lakefront home and you want to know about Lotus Lake real estate?
Here is a brief summary of the lakefront real estate. There are many different styles (types), sizes of homes on the lake. Do you just want a simple 1000 square foot cottage on a small lot? Or do you want a newer 4000 square foot year round home with more lake frontage?
Well Lotus Lake has both for you and everything in between. There is a 747 square foot ranch that was built in 1920 and there are 4500 square foot colonials that were built in the 1990's and 2000.

It is the same thing with the lot sizes. Lotus Lake properties are mainly 60-80' lake frontage. But there are properties that are only 50' and ones that are over 200'. There are some lots that are 200 and 300' deep too!

One of the unexpected bonuses of having a lake home is the nature and the wildlife that calls the lake home. Some of our Michigan lakes are right in the migration path of many of the ducks and geese. We sold a home on Independence Lake that had so many different ducks on it. It was absolutely amazing to see the whole flock take off at one time. It reminded me of my childhood when my grandparents to me to Jack Miner's bird sanctuary in Canada.
Our local lakes have mallards, wood ducks, geese, and swans that are around most of the time. Some people think the geese and swans can be a nuisance. But there is something majestic about a swan swimming by. Or funny when they have their butts in the air. We know the sound thump, thump, thump of a swan taking flight. It starts out awkward and then becomes a thing of beauty.
Rainbows over the lake, the moon glistening off the water are just two of the sights I love. The sight of two swans squaring off over territory. All these little things about life in nature. It is wonderful!
If you move off the lake you will miss the sounds of the geese in the early morning. The sights of the baby ducks all in a row each spring dutifully following their mother. (One time we saw a duck that had 18 little ducks swimming behind it) That is some of the special highlights of living on the lake.

Here is what previous clients had to say about us!
Janel sold our home for us. It was a seller’s market so we priced it high. We got multiple offers because of Janel’s marketing and sold our house $30,000 over list. Then she helped us buy our next house. We didn’t have to pay more than list. We really made and saved money with her.
Joe has helped us both buy and sell a lake home! He also helped us sell our non-lake home. He helped us get top dollar when sold our home. He is very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. He is very easy to work with and we highly recommend him! If you're looking for someone to help you find a home or selling yours, Joe Bertera is the agent for you!
"I first started looking at real estate listings online nearly a year ago, but at first I thought I´d never really buy one. I hadn´t been paying attention and thought I still couldn´t afford to buy a place. I also had no experience in buying a home and I wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing before I bought. For most questions I would search online, the topic had been discussed on Russ´ blog. Not only that, he was local. Over the summer, I finally decided to start physically looking at houses and Russ was the only choice.
My preferred method of contact was email and he always responded in a timely fashion. He was patient with this first-time home buyer, and worked with me through my initial bid process. I was surprised when they accepted the bid! The transaction went smoothly, with Russ patiently answering any questions and concerns I had. From the first time we looked at houses to the closing was exactly one month. I´ve been here five months now and people still marvel at what I got for the price I paid. When I requested a plumber, he was able to provide one was lived close by and was economical."
Thanks for everything, Russ.
