Lake Vermilion Real Estate

9 Decades And License Free.

If you were born before this date in 1919 you can now fish in Minnesota without a license!

For more news on the most recent changes in the Minnesota fishing regulations please see this Minnesota Department of Natural Resources webpage.

Flot And Jet Sam.

Quick!

What’s the difference between flotsam and jetsam?

(Read the answer here.)

I’m almost sure that an accepted rule of the open sea is if anything floats to any portion of your lakeside property it pretty much is yours to claim as your own. By the way, this is another little benefit of waterfront property ownership. (Please contact me for the other reasons to buy and own a lakeshore property.)

I own a prime Lake Vermilion location for reaping this undeserved waterborne booty. The photo shows just a sample of my ill-gotten gain.

If you recognize and can positively identify any item shown, please send me a note along with full payment for this ad and I am happy to return the lost keepsake to the rightful owner.

Thank you.

In the interest of posting something… this is just a doggone good idea.

Activity Update.

About three weeks ago I did a report on the activity level of the Lake Vermilion area real estate market.

Here’s a brief update.

Through today the 2009 market continues to see activity at nearly two times the 2008 rate! In fact, on this date in 2005 (the most active year of the last five) this market had not booked as many sales as have been booked so far in this year.

The real test will be what happens from now until the end of the calendar year. In 2005, the remaining 84% of the year’s total sales were completed after June 15th. That was very strong Summer and Fall selling activity!

(FYI, this data reflects road access Lake Vermilion cabin and home sales only. Feel free to request additional information.)

Insourcing.

The level of posting activity here will need to improve or I may have to outsource ol’ LVRE.com to the Punjab.

(Follow that link and you will learn that “Punjab” is a region in India. The word is derived from a combination of two Persian words that translate to “Land of Five Rivers”.)

Hey, wait a minute! I’m already in the Punjab!… we’ve got the Vermilion, Bigfork, Littlefork, Sturgeon, and Pike Rivers!

So… reporting from the Punjab, this just in:

The Lake Vermilion Resort Association notes the largest fish caught so far this season are: a 29″ Walleye, 44″ Northern Pike, 21″ Smallmouth Bass, 18.5″ Largemouth Bass, 50″ Muskie, and a 14.5″ Crappie!

That’s not too shabby outta one body of water (in the Punjab)!

Free Lifetime Oil Changes.

There is a new Lake Vermilion State Park related story getting a fair amount of play from print and on-line sources. It suggests that Governor Pawlenty may have stretched legal boundaries when negotiating the land purchase for the Park.

Connect to the details here.

One Week Later.

Accepted blogging etiquette says that one should not blog about the reasons one has not blogged.

OK.

As a substitute I offer this bit of housekeeping information about the current listing links on the right side of the page.

The group of current “Commercial” offerings has nearly doubled. The sole reason for this not due to a glut of new listings but it is simply that the search criteria has been relaxed to bring more properties onto the list.

So… if you’re looking to buy a business opportunity, please check the newly expanded group!
