Maybe 4?.... assuming there's deep water near shore... you are buying unit number six..... how is the dock space allocated? If it's not explicitly in writing..... run away.

Next? This is a modestly priced stand alone condo.... Taxes are $4600.... what about condo fees? Nothing noted.

Finally ... electric service is only 100amps.... barely acceptable ....

Asking price is the first consideration, but certainly not the last. Sorry for being somewhat negative... but as someone who's been through 2 lakes region RE transactions (in both cases the Realtors were less than forthcoming) I'd be extremely wary of deals that seem to be too good to be true.

Good luck!

Why is a 100 amp electrical service "barely acceptable"? It's a small camp.
