As a company, there are few things that we

believe

EDUCATION FIRST Our focus in every working relationship is on educating our buyers and sellers to the very best of our ability. If you are well educated, we believe you will feel comfortable with the sales process and be prepared to make the best decisions for yourself.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE MATTERS We know the neighborhoods, woods, roads and water. How is the fishing? What length would the school bus ride be? Is this road

plowed in the winter? There are thousands of good questions. Your agent will have answers.

RELATIONSHIPS ARE IMPORTANT We maintain strong relationships with service providers in our

area that you may need in your purchase or sale. This assures you

that you will have quality answers and solutions when questions or an unexpected problem arise.

TEAMWORK IS ESSENTIAL Our agents are independent, but are supported by the whole of the office. We believe that working together impacts our service in a

powerful way. When we help each other out, we are able to better serve our customers.

NEGOTIATION IS KEY Putting an offer on the table as a buyer, or reviewing an offer that is being presented to you, is a pivotal moment in any search or

sale. Guidance that is clear, informative, and sincere is important.

Our agents will take you through each step with your best interest in mind.

WE ARE A MARKETING COMPANY We are driven by creativity, excellence and innovation. Advertising should be smart and targeted. One checklist does not apply to all,

so expect a plan that is customized to your one-of-a-kind property! Beware, we love to talk marketing!

THIS SHOULD BE FUN We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deny that buying and selling real estate can be among

the most important decisions you will make, but we hope it will be fun too. We are privileged to be your guide, and hope that in the end, it is a road you will be glad you traveled.

wonderful

W hat a

place this is.

The Heart of the Lakes is located a half hour South of St. Cloud and an hourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drive Northwest

of the Twin Cities on Highway 55. Although near these bustling areas and their conveniences, the Annandale Area is absent of traffic, alive with small town tradition and just when you need it most, it can be oh, so wonderfully quiet.

A peaceful but convenient destination also means a valuable one. This is truly a market all its

own. Comparables are unique by body of water, neighborhood and community. Working with the most established real estate team in the area guarantees you dependable professionals that are fun, comfortable to work with and incredibly knowledgeable. A firm understanding of the local market is key to a successful search or sale.

Seriously Local At the heart of who we are, and why we all love what we do, is the Annandale area itself. The Heart of the Lakes, as it has long

been called, is a wonderful lake country area that attracts young families and retirees. Many who once vacationed here now live

here full time, and it’s no wonder why. It’s a charming small town with great schools and endless recreation. It is important to us that we surpass being just knowledgeable of the area, and that we also provide you with service that goes above and beyond. As clients of ours, you will be treated like a neighbor... because you are. There are a couple of things at the core of what “Seriously Local” means:

NICHE MARKETING Our focus is here. We know the local market, and its history, extremely well. If you’re looking at property and want to know

specifics about fishing or a local school bus route, we have your answers. If you’re selling, these are things your buyer will want

to know about too. As an independently-owned office, we make all of our own decisions, and at the heart of those decisions are what is best for serving our clients and the community. LOCALLY-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY We won’t adopt a tool or system just to impress you, but we will implement technology that makes sense for you as a buyer or seller. For that reason our web site, www.oakrealtymn.com, is useful and full of local information. It offers quick links to area

lakes, a fantastic map search, and upcoming open house information. Our daily hot list is a favorite, and the only resource of its kind for immediate updates solely on the Heart of the Lakes market. HEART FOR THE COMMUNITY This area is much more than the place we work. We are all active in the community, from various non-profit/civic groups to lake associations, schools and churches. We love participating in local traditions like Annandale’s historic 4th of July parade and the Chili Cook-Off, among many others. We also join in to support other surrounding communities in their celebrations as well.

Protecting our Lakes

Minnesota has always been a leader when it comes to water quality protection. Recently, Aquatic

Invasive Species (AIS) has been in the news headlines more than ever, each type effecting lakes in

different ways. Zebra Mussels which is an AIS, has drawn the most attention in recent years. Being educated and teaching others on how to prevent the spread of AIS is vital to the water resources we have in Minnesota. Everyone who interacts with the lakes is a part of preventing the spread of AIS.

In the last year, awareness and concern regarding AIS in our local community has grown substantially. The presence of Zebra Mussels, confirmed in three area lakes (Clearwater, John and Sylvia) has brought

concern to residents and an increase in lake access monitoring tactics. To our West in Lake Koronis, near Paynesville, a more frightening AIS is now drawing attention. Starry Stonewort, found in the lake in 2015, is an invasive green algae that is dense and difficult to kill. It forms a surface mat, can interfere with boating and recreation, may displace native plants and could have impacts on fish and other ani-

mals. The Minnesota DNR and Koronis Lake Association are currently working together to manage it. To stay updated or to get involved, visit http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/aquatic/index.html Reach out to your lake association. Lets do all that we can to protect our lakes.

Remember:

CLEAN AQUATIC PLANTS AND ANIMALS FROM WATERCRAFT. DRAIN ALL WATER BY REMOVING DRAIN PLUGS,

AND KEEP DRAIN PLUGS OUT WHILE TRANSPORTING WATERCRAFT. DISPOSE OF UNWANTED BAIT IN THE TRASH.
