Lake Havasu Second Home

[Adam Newcomb]

Hi all.  I'm interested in a second home (and possible long term rental) opportunity in lake havasu and surrounding areas.  I live in San Diego.  Family wants a getaway to enjoy the lake in the summer, off roading and hiking in the winter.  I don't necessarily need to be where all the action is and would actually prefer somewhere more secluded to enjoy bonfires and generally feel disconnected from the usual business.

Anyone willing to talk to me about the various areas, any places that fit the bill, utilities, safety etc?

@Mike Hottinga appreciate the offer.  If easier feel free to message me and we can speak live.  you asked for it :)

1. what effect will covid have on general area and real estate?
2. what drives pricing/how does the overall market work?
   1. Snow Birds
   2. Retirees
   3. few locals
   4. tourists
3. Is the run up on pricing sustainable?
4. Was there a real estate price correction in 2012?
5. Are city laws changing around short term rentals?
6. Are there concerns for the water rights, i.e. is it possible the lake drains or becomes so low lake recreation isn't possible?
7. what happens when the havasau riveria finishes, does it change the real estate market?
8. Is there any available land? that has water/electricity/sewer?
9. how does zoning generally work, if land is available could i put multiple dwellings, e.g. one long term rental, one second home, etc
10. is there specific zoning to allow manufactured homes, mobile homes, etc vs fixed dwellings
11. My dream would be
    1. leave san diego on friday after work
    2. show up late to havasau (no house in close proximity), property not vandalized, nothing stolen, no evidence of squatters, nobody there
    3. start a fire
    4. wake up in the am, have a decent view of hills, mountains, (something other than flat)
    5. ride a 4-wheeler from my backyard into the surrounding areas
    6. after lunch, trailer boat to lake within 20 minutes, enjoy the day
    7. pickup food on way back to home
    8. lather rinse repeat
12. Does that exist?  Any areas that come to mind that could?
13. what am i not asking i should consider?
    

appreciate it.
