yes I pretty much agree with you. We estimate that about only about 20% of waterfront home owners use the home as their primary residence. When you combine that with the fact that many of these homes have been passed down generation to generation, the result is that there is not a whole lot of pressure on most sellers. We joke that Lake Martin is a place where sellers don't "have to" sell but also buyers don't "have to" buy either!
