If you are serious about buying a lake property, the best advice I can give you as an experienced agent is to find a professional, qualified, and courteous buyer's broker to make sure you have the representation you need every step of the way.

John Garrett serves as the Managing Broker for RE/MAX Lake of the Ozarks, the area's #1 real estate company. What does this mean for you? As the Broker and sales manager, I must be able to handle all contract negotiations, keep abreast of forms, current legal issues, and have a wealth of general real estate knowledge about the Lake of the Ozarks. The top producing RE/MAX agents at the Lake of the Ozarks rely on me for my knowledge of financing options, escrow procedures, legal and contract matters, and skillful negotiating skills. The advantage to you is that my services cost the same as the other agents, even ones that are not as experienced or as knowledgeable.   If you are serious about buying, e-mail me today to get started.
