Second, almost all of the recent waterfront transactions have gone to people who are rich, not stretching to afford it (no one stretches to afford a $2MM second home). So financially, it's just one piece of their overall portfolio.

But of course, I do not have a crystal ball...
An outsider coming here and reading 50+ post threads on the low lake level, water quality/cyanobacteria, loud music from wake boats, ever increasing ad volarem-based property taxes, etc., may very well think twice about dropping multimillions on lakefront property...
