Buying- If you are buying a lake home in Boulder Junction, hunting land in the Chequamegon Forest - we are your source for information about it and will be your agent in guiding you through the purchase.  We offer detailed analyses including recent comps and tax records and will show you multiple properties so that you see what we see.

Selling-  If it is time to sell your lakefront property in Minocqua or your condominium in St. Germain, we are well situated to make this happen -  advertising via numerous websites such as Realtor.com, Trulia and Zillow we are able to get great exposure for your listing.  Reasonable commissions and personalized service.

Dateline- January 2012 - We noted the typical slow down in the Real Estate Market in December but January is seemingly taking off - Some real good bargains out there.  What we really need is more snow and moderating temps.  Right now the MLS has just over 6000 listings. About 550 of these are commercial offerings.  The remainder look like this: 2900 vacant lots with 1150 being a lake lot or river front - 1750  off water lots with 750 of those being 10 acres or larger - good inventory here.  There are roughly 2500 homes on the market with 1250 of those being on water and just shy of 300 condominiums.  This is just a rough breakdown - all price points are considered here - call for more details.
