6 Reasons to Invest in Lakefront Property!

By -
Owning a home on the Lake of the Ozarks is a lot of fun! It doesn't matter if you live there full time or if it's just a vacation home at the Lake of the Ozarks, we know that you will absolutely LOVE owning a home on the water! Even though you probably don't need too much convincing, today, our real estate team at the Lake of the Ozarks has six reasons why lake homes are better than other properties! 


You Will Never Have To Go To Someone Else's House

As the owner of a lake house, you'll hardly ever have to pick up and drive to another friend or family member's home - because YOUR HOUSE will be where the party is! Everyone you know will be anxious for the chance to get out and enjoy the water. As long as you're willing to play the host/hostess, you'll never have the make the drive again.

There Is Always Something Fun To Do

With private lake access, you'll never sit at home wondering how you should occupy yourself ever again. As the owner of your own lake home, you'll constantly have the water at your disposal. Boating, tubing, swimming, fishing, water skiing, wakeboarding, riding the jet ski, canoeing, kayaking... Countless fun activities are always mere seconds away.

Resale Value Is Higher

We're real estate agents at the Lake of the Ozarks through and through - we can't talk about the advantages certain properties offer without acknowledging their resale value. When buying a waterfront home in Osage Beach MO or any of the surrounding areas, it's important to consider the resale value. Because lake homes are in higher demand, they typically retain (and potentially increase) their value much better than some of their inland counterparts.

You'll Stress Less

Did you know that water has been scientifically proven to reduce stress levels? Countless studies have shown that simply looking at water has a very calming effect, even on the most stressed individuals. In addition to private access to the lake, your lake home will offer spectacular views of the water. From the comfort of your home, you'll be able to soak in the calming effects of the water year-round.

Staying In Shape Is Easier

If you're like most people, you're probably always looking for ways to lead a healthier, more active lifestyle. With access to the water 24/7, staying active will have never been easier. In addition to being great fun, the activities we discussed earlier (skiing, swimming, tubing, etc) are also great exercise. By truly taking advantage of all the water has to offer, you'll be able to have a great time and stay in great shape.


They Can Provide A Source Of Additional Income

If your lake house is a second or vacation home that you don't plan to occupy year-round, you may be able to use it as a source of secondary income by renting it out to vacationers. Depending on how many days of the year you rent it, you may still be able to claim the interest paid on your second mortgage as a tax deduction or potentially deduct the cost of utilities, maintenance, etc as business operating expenses.
