Everything you need to buy lakefront with clear eyes.
Welcome — here's the full kit I put together for Central Florida lakefront buyers. Start with the Field Guide, then dig into whichever piece fits where you are. All free, all yours to keep.
The Lakefront Buyer's Field Guide
The whole picture, start to finish — chain lakes vs. standalone, water types, lake levels, what you actually own, dock rules, the true costs, and the questions most buyers never think to ask until closing.

Download →Dock & Shoreline Cheat Sheet
Who regulates docks on each lake, what you're typically allowed to build, the square-footage rules, and what a dock, lift, or seawall really costs.

The honest carrying costs beyond the price — flood insurance, waterfront taxes, dock and seawall upkeep, association dues, septic and well. No surprises after closing.
