We have a luxury Melody Point gated community home on Grand Lake in Grove, OK that has to be sold quick! This home shows as new. It has 2 bedrooms on the main floor with the open kitchen, dining, and living areas and separate utility room. The lower level is a guest suite with bath. It is big enough it could be a family or game room and still have sleeping quarters. There is an oversized two car garage. You will spend hours on the the covered front porch facing east so that afternoon sun is not a problem and overlooking a landscaped pond.

Melody Point has a common area swimming pool and bar-b-que area at the waterfront. There is a club house/community room for homeowners to use and have get to gethers in. Boat slips are available to lease or purchase. The entire area is upscale “craftsman or lodge type” construction in a beautiful setting at Grand Lake. Low dues pay for common ammenties upkeep and your lawn/sprinkler care. You just come and enjoy.

Again, this is a distressed sale home on Grand Lake and has to move fast. It is not a torn up repo home.

The home at one time was valued close to $300,000. Present owners loss can be your gain. However, you cannot delay or this once in a blue moon opportunity to have a Grand Lake retreat at this low unheard of price for Melody Point will not be available.

Luxury Melody Point Home on Grand Lake Forced Sale is a post from: Grand Lake OK Real Estate with Joe Neill & Aaron Hughes

New home construction in the Grand Lake area has been at a very slow snail’s pace for the past three years but this year we are seeing signs that people are wanting their custom home built on a special waterfront lot, gated community lot, or golf course lot in the Grand Lake area. In the Grove area of Grand Lake I know of a least four custom homes just getting started and about four more well along in the construction process. Now does make sense to think building. Interest rates remain at all time lows, but we all know that this cannot go on forever. There are builders available to build your dream home and sub-contractors to help them, and we have a good inventory of choice lots to pick from.

Our Grand Lake Team at RE/MAX Grand Lake has several nice lot selections including Grand Lake waterfront lots in several good locations priced from $69,000- 295,000 depending on view, location, water depth, and surroundings. We have gated community lots such as The Preserve available with boat slips in a new marina, and we also have wonderful golf course lots in Patricia Island. While inventory is good now, once buying gets going to any degree will  wipe out all inventory with no new additions planned currently to pickup slack that could develop rather quickly.

Some of our waterfront lots on Grand Lake, gated community lots, and golf course lots are listed below:

10-2773 Grand Lake MLS is a bluff lot in Bernice on Grand Lake with utilities close by this lot has some of the best views on the lake and is priced at only $69,900.

11-384 is a Buffalo Shores North waterfront lot with boat dock in place. Buffalo Shores North is one of Grove’s premier subdivisions and this lot in protected cove is priced to sell at only $139,900.

10-740 is a Patricia Island Estates waterfront lot with wonderful beach area, permit for dock in place, golf across the street, and sits in an elite area of nice homes. This lot is priced at $255,000.

10-716 is a Pointe West subdivsion waterfront lot. Pointe West is a small upscale area with ocean like water views in a 180 degree view. This lot has mature trees, gentle slope lot for walk out basement home or single level home. This lot is priced at $295,000 and may be the finest available waterfront lot on Grand Lake.

12-334 is a gated community lot in The Preserve located just outside of Grove. This area is all new upscale homes on lots with beautiful trees and terrian. This lot has a 30′x12′ slip in the community docks and is the best value lot available in The Preserve at $59,900 including the boat slip.

10-2399 priced at $57,500 and 10-2410 priced at $54,500 are side by side lots on the golf course in Patricia Island Estates. Both have excellent views, good trees, and level building sites. Patricia Island has no dues unless you join the optional golf club or swim and tennis clubs.

11-878 priced at $21,000 and 11-879 priced at $23,000 are smaller lots in Patricia Island Estates across the street from the golf course. These lots are flat and easy to build on and are very fairly priced for the upscale Patricia Island.

11-1201 is a Wildwood Farms 2.5 Acre lot in another upscale Grove subdivision. Give yourself a little elbow room here and enjoy all Grove and Grand Lake has to offer from this popular area. This lot is priced at $36,500.

09-1504 might just be the location for you if you want land and water to enjoy without having neighbors right beside you, want a real estate investment for the future you can enjoy now, or want to develop some land. This Zena area property features 38.5 Acres, over .8 mile of Grand Lake shoreline, and a 2400 sq ft shop building. The land has beautiful views, dock protection, and wonderful South Grand Lake water to enjoy. This fine piece of Grand Lake real estate is priced at $550,000.

12-1023 is about a mile outside of Grove with 3 Acres and 900′ of Grand Lake shoreline with city gas, water, sewer, and REC electric all close by. This parcel has 48 permitted boat slips ready for you to build and offers great views, nice trees, location, and is great for many uses. You may want an estate type waterfront lot, a development lot for condos, or developement lots for 15 homes. This property is one of the best parcels for any of the above stated purposes in the Grand Lake area and is priced at $1,250,000.

You can see we have the inventory for whatever building project you would like. Grand Lake waterfront lots, development land, golf course lots, gated community lots, upscale community building lots are available from our team. We also sell all inventory from the Grand Lake MLS.

Luxury Waterfront Home on Grand Lake for $375,000 is a post from: Grand Lake OK Real Estate with Joe Neill & Aaron Hughes

Today’s Tulsa World Business Section (March 21, 2012) has a bold and large type headline “Home Market on the Rise”  Also sub head line states “Sales, Construction Up”. The article goes on to say home sales for January and February are the highest since 2008 and 20.3% ahead of last year. Article says weather has of course helped but has a quote stating “Buyers are starting to regain their confidence and make purchases again”. We feel confidence has been the one key element holding back many buyers who have solid jobs and credit. The economy is improving and will improve more as people start to make purchases they have put off such as a new home.

The above news is for the Tulsa, OK area and is great news. On Grand Lake we have not yet seen this much of a jump in sales but things are for sure on up swing. We have found, the Grand Lake market usually lags the Tulsa market on the start since a large percentage of the home sales on Grand Lake are waterfront homes used as second homes on Grand Lake. We also do have a large market of retirees who move to Grand Lake for their retirement home on the lake. Retirees have been holding back and some working longer before taking the move to enjoy years of working and settling in to a relaxed life style on the lake. Many retirees come to Grand Lake because they know their married kids and grandkids will love to come visit them in such a great setting. Grand Lake has access to three major airports all within an hours drive which is very handy for todays families strung out all across the country. We have excellent health care with the new Integris Grove Hospital and wonderful health care professionals. I saw an email forum one day this week where one writer in the forum was telling another, “don’t wait too long to retire and enjoy the good life, do it while health is good and you can enjoy some wonderful years”. I thought how true this is.

We feel like the spring and summer selling season on Grand Lake will be very good this year and is just starting. We have a nice inventory of waterfront homes, golf course homes, and lakeview homes on Grand Lake to choose from with many at very attractive prices. Prices are better than we have seen in years and interest rates remain at all time lows. It almost seems like a no brainer to think buying that family lake home or retirement home now. These are good reasons to buy a lake home on Grand Lake now.

If you would like to know more about Grand Lake real estate, please contact our Grand Lake Team at RE/MAX Grand Lake, Aaron Hughes and Joe Neill. We know the lake area, the MLS listings, and where the good deals are. Contact Aaron at aaronhughes@remax.net or 918 801-5645 or Joe at jneill@remax.net or 918 640-3300. We hope to hear from you soon.

Grand Lake Real Estate News is a post from: Grand Lake OK Real Estate with Joe Neill & Aaron Hughes

Great news this morning when I opened up my Tulsa World. First I always read the obits to make sure I didn’t die the night before and I hadn’t, next to the business section and today there in bold headline—”State jobless rate falls to 6.1%. This is just terrific news. Oklahoma’s jobless rate has been much better than the nation as a whole for months but it is still great to see it falling and at 6.1%. The article states we are very close to the employment high pre-recession. Total employment is close to old high but unemployed is still high by Oklahoma standards but the important part is we have as many total jobs as before or almost do. The article states jobs have been added in mining, logging, and manufacturing. The article does not mention oil and gas industry but I am sure this industry has helped us ever so much.

If you live in Oklahoma or other nearby states, have a good steady business or job, and have your personal finances in order then you are probably doing ok. We must feel pain for our fellow countrymen who are not as lucky to have a good state economy, a job, and a bank account. However, if you have thinking a new second home on Grand Lake this is probably a great time to be buying. You can get some deals now if you search with the right agents who know the market. Interest rates will not stay low forever. Every day we grow a day older, time is short. It might be time to enjoy family and friends at your Grand Lake retreat. Prudent buying helps the economy to continue to recover.

The Grand Lake Team of Aaron Hughes and Joe Neill at RE/MAX Grand Lake in Grove, OK would appreciate the opportunity to visit with you about Grand Lake waterfront homes, Grand Lake golf course homes, or a lakeview home. We know the Grand Lake area, the Grand Lake MLS listings and can make your search more inclusive, less stressful, less time consuming, and fun.
