Real Estate Information

Memorial Day Week-End is one of the three busiest times at Grand Lake and it still amazes me that even with so many people here it doesn't look crowded . It's such a large lake. People and families are having a great time and creating fun memories which will last a life time. While this is going on Debbie and I were showing home to a couple from Arizona who will be moving here. One home had a very interesting owner who is a professional wildlife photograher. Wow! It was amazing to see some of his work with many of the pictures taken around the Grand Lake Area. Some of the pictures were Pelicans, Cranes, Wood Ducks, Mallards, Geese, New born Foxes, Eagles and of course Deer. If you enjoy discovering these things this area is a bonaza.

Do you like golf? How about lake activites. Well, Grand Lake has this in spade at Patricia Island Estates locate in Grove, Oklahoma. We built a new web site to show it off so take a look at www.PatricialIslandEstates.com.  Simply stated it is still one of the most affordable places in the country to have this fantastic combination. As they say there... Have the Best of Both Worlds...Golf & Grand Lake. It's a Lifestyle.

 

According to the last issue of the "Chronicle iof Grand Lake" cover. It is officialyl swim suit season on Grand and Kelee Bright, Miss Grand Lake, lead models in a recent fashion show. at the Cherokee Yacht Club.  She'll be back Memorial Weekend for another.

It's many peoples dream to have a place on the lake. Whether you enjoy the fishing, boating, other water sports or just the serenity, the lake is the place to be. The jewell in Oklahoma is Grand Lake with 1,300 mile of shoreline and being 67 miles long.

There is a broad range of pricing and you need to be sure to work with an experienced professional Realtor who can help you through the process. It is very different than in the city where everything is platted and values can fairly easily be determined. View drives price and even the way a home is canted on a lot could male a $50,000 difference in market value. It is very hard to find a nice place on the lake under $200,000 that doesn't need updating or work unless it is a mobile home. For what most people expect to get prices are typically upwards of $300,000.

If price is limmited consider lake view or lake access. A home acrooss the street from the lake can cos $100,000 less than the same home on the water. You cant rent a boat slip and even be on a golf course for a very long time for the difference and still have the lake to play and enjoy.

 

Our first post is a welcome. We plan to discuss many things as we go along concerning Grand Lake, Oklahoma. We will not limit our talks to real estate in the Grand lake area but will talk about many thing in Grove, Monkey Island and the rest of the lake. Should you have a specific interest let us know and we will address it. This should be fun and informative.
