What does waterfront mean here?
Ask for boundaries, documented access and any shoreline approvals. Do not assume a dock or path to the water is included because the listing says lakefront. These details should be checked for each home.
Look at the house, too
After you have taken in the view, look at the home’s condition, systems and maintenance needs. Tell us whether it will be a full-time residence or a weekend place so we can help you compare suitable listings.
