Lake Geneva Farms

My wife and children were to be out of town for a few days, and my job was simple. In the morning, let the chickens out and be sure they had food

It’s gray again. The snow has melted, so we have that going for us, but the white has been replaced with the grays and browns of November, and

If I were the sort of person who was forced to spend sixth months in a more tax advantageous state, it would be a struggle for me. In order to find

Basswood Sells

I just wrote a brilliant review of the sale at W4396 Basswood. It was amazing, if I do say so myself. Succinct, powerful, articulate. And then,

250 Circle Parkway Sells

Last year, about this time, I sold the home at 254 Circle Parkway in Williams Bay, up on the tip of Cedar Point. The home was lovely, with newer updat

I blame the television for this one. I also blame the internet, but it should be argued that the bulk of this blame lies with the television. Namely,

Sunday

Just trying to break the habit that forces us to worry about the future more than we care about living in the present.

Market Top

Want to buy real estate in 2019? Good. Want to avoid the market mistakes that many consumers are making? Buy the blue chips.

Battle Royale

You think your life is difficult? Ha! Try fighting my battle, and then you’ll at least be happy that you’re not having to walk a day in my pollen covered shoes.

In between the rain drops, the trees of May strut their stuff. Pay attention, because these flowers are fleeting.

Park Drive Sells

Another week another sale on Geneva Lake. This one of a nice house on Park Drive that I closed for $2,100,000. Let’s learn what this sale shows us about the market.

Old Lakefront Homes
