Hi future Islander neighbors. A group of friends and myself are interested in finally purchasing land on the island. A few of us have visited the island many times over and have finally decided to purchase a few lots on the island. The area we seem to be most interested and can afford is up by rogers corner. (is that right?) We have seen many lots for sale up in this area where the power line ends. We have a very limited budget. We are most interested in any lots totalling under 10,000. Before we go and buy from a realtor we wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions. We can pay cash, or if possible we would like to find someone that will entertain the idea of a land contract with a year or so pay off time. If anybody either has or knows of any properties that might be in this range or available by land contract, please let us know. I have been elected to spearhead this part of the property search( oh yay)
We look forward to finally finding our piece of the island. Feel free to contact me(John) either by email or by phone. iamjohnandur@aol.com or 248 790 8791.
We wanna stay!
P.S. Look forward to meeting the new owners of hawk's landing as well, they seem really nice.

Hi I don't have any properity for sale or know any body that will sell on the land contract. But that area is a great area that you are looking at properity. Hope you find something that you like. If you need any financing on the properity let me know and I will help you if I can. I have a mortgage company and a modular home company in Cheboygan. And I'm really from the Island.
