It was a crazy 2021 for Delavan Lake real estate. Low inventory, limited sales, higher prices and Keefe Real Estate, once the leading agency in the area, sold out to a New York company.
As a result, we have started Simons Realty Group to continue to provide you with a strong local presence in the Delavan Lake real estate market. We will be located at 320 Hwy 50, Delavan Lake.
