White Lake real estate and White Lake homes Oakland County

Homes on the east side of the lake sit above the lake.  (Ridge Rd) So there are stairs needed to get down to the lake on most of the homes on the lake's east side.  On the west and north side of the lake most of the homes are level with the lake.

Is the water calming to you?  Or the water remind you of past vacations?   If you are like me there is something magical about water!  I don’t know if it reminds me of great vacations, or good times with family from years gone by.  There is just something about water that I love.  Nothing like seeing the sun shine on the water.  If you have feelings like I do I would say you are a water person.

Your dream of living on a lake is very possible and attainable.  I have helped hundreds of buyers move onto lakes.   Oakland County Michigan lakes still have many affordable homes that have reasonable drives into Metro Detroit. You may be able to get to work in less than a half hours from some of our local lakes.  Your piece of lake real estate is waiting for you.

On the west side of the lake along Duck Lake Rd there are some lakefront properties that are deep and wide.  So you can find some homes with elbow room on the lake.  On Jackson Rd most of the lake homes are close to both the lake and the road.  The lots seem to be smaller and tighter along Jackson Blvd.

It does not matter whether you live on a lake or in the city you will have some good and some bad neighbors.  Most lake home owners get along so well.  Where the problem usually arises is about lot lines.  So one of the biggest recommendations is to get a staked survey of your property.  It is worthwhile and will help keep property line disputes down.  I have heard too many stories of home owners using and thinking they owned to a certain point of land when they never actually owned it.

 Lake courtesy is simple things like not blocking your neighbors view.  You do not want to put trees or shrubs in to block your neighbors view.  It is the same thing with a privacy fence to the lake.    You are going to start a war and alienate your neighbor. 

 It is simple things to do when trying to keep the neighbor peace.  When you have a party alert your neighbor, you may want to even invite them.  Remember parking is usually at a premium on the lake.  So be courteous and do not let your guest block one of your neighbors.  As I always say be nice.  Try to do a little for them.  Most lake homes are close.  Closer than homes in many communities so stereos and noise can be a nuisance.  Be aware of that when you are listening to your favorite tunes.

 Being a good neighbor on the lake will make lake living so much better.

Here is what a previous client had to say about me!

"Hi Russ,

I wanted to thank for helping me get my Milford condo.  I know I limited my chances of finding the "perfect condo" by wanting a certain small area.  But you came out here whenever we found one.  It took me a year of looking but finally we found one that was the "one".  It was a short sale which I knew nothing about.  You told me about all the problems that might happen with a "short sale" and some of them did.  You were good about re-assuring me about the length of time short sales take.  But we finally got the condo!   Thank you from Courtney and I."
