The life of a Realtor can be a busy one. Yesterday I got up at 5:20 am in the morning to handle my email and update two websites. I packed my day-pack with cameras, tape measure, basic paperwork and bicycle and headed for the ferry dock at Catawba. I always enjoy talking to people on the ferry boat. There were not many people on this cold and rainy day, but I did talk to a couple who were going over for their first time as tourists. I suggested they come back in the spring when more was open, but recommended some places that were still open for business.
I showed a nice ranch we have listed on South Bass Island (Put in Bay is a Village on South Bass Island) to some buyers. They seemed interested - but you never know until they contact you for more information or to make an offer. While leaving the ranch I got a call from a contractor who was doing work on the island and he and his wife wanted to look at a historic home surrounded by woodland that has been completely restored. I was two blocks away and met them in 20 minutes. They were very impressed since I was on a bicycle.
After showing the homes and refilling the flier boxes I headed for the village and grabbed some quick lunch at the Fishbowl. I then biked over to the Miller Boat Line office from which I caught the ferry over to Middle Bass Island. Once on Middle Bass I helped my father winterize our place, pulled most of the flier boxes on the island and stored them in our island office (just ordered new signs for the street for next spring!!) and grabbed more food at Walleyes.
I'm a lucky person. I list and sell real estate along Ohio's North Coast. Beautiful locations like Avon Lake, Vermilion, Huron, Catawba, and the Lake Erie Islands are my office much of the time. If you are considering a primary home along Lake Erie's shores, a new business location, vacant land for future plans or a summer retreat contact me at leehisey@howardhanna.com. I would love to help you discover Ohio's islands and shores.
