Winter may seem like an unusual time to purchase a lake home, but now is a great time to determine if a home is right for your year-round. Lake Homes Realty’s CEO, Glenn Phillips, offers 4 reasons why you should continue your lake home search through the off-season.
- Understand Seasonal Water: Water levels tend to vary depending on the season. Getting a good idea of how the winter water will prevent surprises.
- Understand Community: You’ll get a good idea of what local life is like outside of the overactive summer crowd.
- Possible Price Advantages: While winter won’t have an outstanding effect on overall market pricing, the lowered frenzy in demand may help you get a better deal.
- Availability of Best Agents: Summer is the busiest time for lake real estate specialists. The off-season allows those lake experts to dedicate more time to your dream home journey.
Summer is the ideal season to buy a lake property, but waiting until winter has its advantages. Don’t let the chilly weather stop you from finding your dream home!
