Despite the improvement with the sale of Lake Front homes we are seeing a decrease in the sales of homes off the water. In 2010 there were 377 homes sold off the water and in 2011 there have been 368 homes sold or 9 units less. That is a very moderate drop in sales and not something to get too excited about but the part to get a little concerned about is the drop in the average sales price. In 2010 the average sales price of a house off the water was $109,790 and in 2011 the average sales price is $99,039.

Overall I believe the real estate market at the Lake of the Ozarks to be better than it is in a lot of communities around the country but we still have our challenges to look forward to.
