Life on the West Side of the Lake

Life at the Lake of the Ozarks - there's nothing like it! Where else can you take your boat directly to your favorite restaurant, for example, or enjoy all the hustle and bustle of a busy tourist attraction while still getting to take advantage of the peace and quiet of a small town?

Living at the Lake of the Ozarks is a great experience no matter what part of the Lake you live on, but this week your friends at Eagle's Nest Realty are here to look specifically at life on the west side.

Eagle's Nest Realty is here to help!

How Can A REALTOR® at the Lake of the Ozarks Help?

That's your agent's job, not yours! Your Lake of the Ozarks real estate agent will be your guide, your ally, and your advocate throughout the entire process. From helping you to set an appropriate sale price for your home to carefully navigating the closing process, your agent will be by your side every step of the way.

Your "Nest" At The Lake

When you buy real estate at the Lake of the Ozarks, you're not just buying a house - you're buying a home. You're buying a place to build your nest. The team at Eagle's Nest Realty understands the importance of finding the right place to build your nest, and we would love to help you along your journey!

What should your nest do for you? What needs should it fulfill? Here's a quick snapshot of the things we believe your nest should be for you and your family.

Your Nest Should Be A Safe Place To Come Home To

Life is busy! Work, meetings, doctor's appointments, kids, extended family, friends, household chores... if we're not careful, they'll take up practically minute of every day. Ideally, your home should be your safety zone, your refuge, your place to relax after another busy day. No matter what is going on in your life, your nest should always be a welcoming environment to come home to. If you love your home, spending time there will make you happier - simple as that!

Your Nest Should Be A Place To Raise A Family

Have you thought about having children? If you want to raise a family someday, buying a home is a natural part of the process. While you can raise kids while renting, owning your own space makes everything easier. You don't have to worry about your landlord dictating how you can or cannot use the space, and your children can thrive in the stable environment that a home provides. 

Your Nest Should Be A Place To Host Family & Friends

There's something truly special about having your own space - as the owner of your very own home at the Lake of the Ozarks, chances are that you will love the opportunity to have friends and family over for visits. There is a unique sense of pride that comes from welcoming visitors into your home, and the joy that comes with it can be infectious!

We Can Help You Find Your Nest!

If you are thinking about buying a home at the Lake of the Ozarks, we would love to set up a time to meet with you! We understand the unique joys and challenges that prospective homeowners face, and we would be honored to help you navigate through the process. Give us a call to get started today!

Eagle's Nest - Meet The Team!

If you're hiring a real estate agent to represent you as you buy or sell your Lake of the Ozarks home, you should strive to find the best real estate agent at the Lake of the Ozarks. With such a unique landscape, community, and history, the Lake Area has its own set of factors that must be addressed when approaching real estate - and having a local agent on your side will give you an advantage.

In order for you to better get to know the agents available to help you sell or buy a waterfront home at the Lake of the Ozarks, we invite you to meet the husband and wife team that makes up Eagle's Nest Realty: Bill and Sky Johnson!

Bill Johnson

He has been a resident at the Lake for thirteen years and an active community member ever since he moved here. Bill has served as President of multiple community service organizations, including the Convention & Visitors Bureau, Tri-County Lodging Association, and the Board of Trustees for his church. Bill was also instrumental in the construction of a local animal shelter and spay/neuter clinic.

Bill & Sky Johnson

Bill is grateful to have been the recipient of the prestigious "Partner in Tourism Award," three Certificates of Appreciation from the National Association of Realtors, and the "Good Neighbor Award 2010" from Realtor Magazine.

Bill brings years of experience with Lake Area workings and development of buildings and plans to each of your real estate transactions. No matter what your business is, Bill will adopt it and make it his own until the job is complete!

Sky Johnson

Sky has been involved in real estate for over thirty years. Before coming to Missouri, she practiced both commercial and residential real estate in several other states, specifically Texas and California. Sky is well-versed in all aspects of real estate, including sales, development, and management.
