Buying a Home in Crivitz and Surrounding Areas

Buy with someone who knows what to ask. Septic, the well, title and access are worth knowing before you make an offer.

Buying in Crivitz and the towns around it

Most buyers here are not just buying a house. They want a lifestyle: morning coffee over the water, acreage out the back door, a cabin the whole family can gather at for years. I help buyers find that across Crivitz, the Town of Stephenson, Silver Cliff, Athelstane, the Town of Lake, Wausaukee, Pound, Pembine, Amberg, Marinette, Mountain and Lakewood.

I am Kathryn Conard, broker and owner of Venture North Real Estate Co, based right here in Crivitz.

Start with what you want

Before I show you anything, I want to know how you will use the place, year-round or weekends, water or woods, and what you cannot live without. That saves you from touring places that were never going to fit. My Northwoods Buyer's Guide has a short worksheet to start with.

What to ask before you buy here

Septic, the well, title, the survey, easements, and who plows the road in winter all matter more here than they would on a house in a subdivision. I have local professionals I trust for each one, and I will tell you when to bring one in.

The lakes, the river and the land

Lake Noquebay, the Peshtigo River, High Falls Flowage, Caldron Falls Flowage, Sandstone Flowage, Big Newton Lake, Little Newton Lake, Thunder Lake, and White Potato Lake near Pound are among the places buyers ask me about most. Each has its own character, and I can point you to the ones that fit what you want.

How I help

Fewer places, chosen because they fit. See waterfront and lake homes, cabins and second homes, or recreational and hunting land. I also work in Green Bay and Surrounding Areas, where many of my clients live.
