Summer 2020: Real Estate Is Open Again

The real estate industry was finally allowed to open May 7th, but we must all still take precautions when showing properties. Summer is starting and listings are popping up. The nice properties, reasonably priced, go fast. Last year we helped many new families obtain their cottage or second home in Northern Michigan.

If you are serious about buying property, now is the time to start researching properties online. You can search through our Northern Michigan Property Search, or on Zillow, Realtor.com, or one of the other online real estate databases. We can also help you find your Northern Michigan retreat; just call us to get started. If you see something you like or have questions about a listed property, please contact us first, before the seller’s Realtor, as we have access to information on all the listed properties in Michigan.

These are major investments, so do it right and hire a Real Estate Lawyer/Broker from REL to represent you in this purchase. We charge the same as a Realtor on listed properties, with no hourly legal fees. Unlike a Realtor, as lawyers we can provide legal advice, draft contracts, and interpret legal terms and contracts. As real estate brokers, we can schedule a showing of any listed property and are paid from the commission when the sale closes.

When you see something you like, contact us first. Why would you call the listing Realtor? They represent the seller. Let REL help you obtain your Northern Michigan dream cottage safely and securely.

REL is a member of both the Northern Great Lakes Realtors MLS and the Great Lakes Bay Region Board of Realtors and can provide listings for properties from Saginaw north. With an office in Elk Rapids, Michigan, we have great insight into price and location. Call us at (231) 498-2171 or email jim@realestatelawyersplc.com.
