There s a race to buy lakefront properties in Northern Wisconsin, with sales up nearly 30% Sarah Hauer, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Derek Larson feels like he s scrambling to find more homes to sell in northern Wisconsin.
The normally slow-moving rural real estate market is seeing properties sell nearly as quickly as popular urban markets. It s a fast and furious market, said Larson, a real estate agent for First Weber Group based in Minocqua. If you see something you like, you have to move on it and you have to come in with your very best offer.
A waterfront property won t stay on the market more than a week, he said.
