Subject:   Higher winter water = lower property values?

OK, so you don't trust realtors. Explain to me their reason for saying this will improve property values if in fact it won't. Will it make their commissions go up or down? I can't imagine they would argue a position that is counter to their own interests unless they were just being intellectually honest. Either way there is no reason for them to say it will increase property valaues if it wont. Maybe I am missing some other motivation that you can help me with.

You and the others see the world as a zero sum game as if there is only so much money out there and if some person with a less valuable house suddenly has more value because of higher winter water levels then those owners that already have deep water will have to pay the price. Not very sound economic theory. More buyers being drawn to Lake Martin will increase home values for everyone, including those with deep water. Having more inventory with year round water will make the lake more attractive to buyers and should improve values. But at a minimum higher winter pool and a layer draw down will increase the enjoyment of the lake by many others. Why would anyone oppose that? Because they fear they might lose a little value in their property?
