Wally Kidd: Welcome to Walloon, November 2017

WELCOME TO

WALLOON

Testimonial In 1888, our family built a cottage on the shores of Walloon Lake.

Almost 120 years later it was time for us to sell our cherished possession. After a lengthy interview process it became clear that there was only one realtor that could handle this important and emotional transaction for us...that was Wally Kidd.

Finding a broker who we trusted was a must, finding one whose family has a similar, storied history on the lake was really unique. He clearly understood what it meant for my family to transfer the ownership of this cottage. He handled it beautifully. Wally was always professional and became a valued friend in the end. No one knows Walloon Lake like Wally!�

To Know Is A Big Deal My father-in-law, Jerry McDermott, was an executive with the Rouse Company in Baltimore. Over his desk, he had a sign that read: “To know is a big deal!” He was a very successful, nononsense kind of guy.

In real estate today some base their knowledge on fact, while others hope that what they’ve heard is accurate and relay it as fact.

I pride myself in offering my clientele credible facts, and like Jerry McDermott, I pride myself as a no-nonsense kind of guy.

Real estate is a serious business. Properties on Walloon Lake sell for millions of dollars. If you are looking for an articulate, knowledgeable broker, with over 100 years of family history on the lake, please give me a call. I look forward to helping you with the sale or purchase of your home on Walloon. In the meantime, enjoy my latest publication showcasing the fine homes I currently have for sale on the lake.

All the best,

Testimonial Wally not only presented our home with wonderful advertising and marketing projects, he spent many hours just touching base.

We weren’t just selling a house on a lot, we were selling a home in which we had made a lifetime of memories. We wanted to work with someone who understood growing up and living on Walloon lake, someone who had shared experiences of a family home on Walloon. We found that ideal person in Wally Kidd.”

CHRISTINA B UETTNER-RICE — WAL L OON L AK E

WALLYKIDD.COM We have known and worked with Wally Kidd on both the buy side and sell side of Walloon Lake real estate. During our 40 years on Walloon, we can say without question, nobody knows this lake, what it has to offer and valuations, like Wally. Not only is he a professional in his field, but he is also a neighbor, friend and trusted advisor. We highly recommend talking to Wally if you are ever interested in buying or selling on Walloon Lake.”
