New Buffalo, MI — 8/20/2025: As demand for Lake Michigan waterfront homes continues to rise, prospective buyers and investors are grappling with a persistent challenge: a shrinking inventory of high-quality properties and high property rate in the highly sought-after areas of Union Pier and New Buffalo.

New Buffalo and Union Pier real estate markets have seen increased competition, particularly among buyers looking for privacy, lake views, and long-term value in Lake Michigan properties.

Recent migration trends, especially from Chicago and other metro areas, have accelerated the appetite for waterfront properties in New Buffalo and Union Pier, often pushing out casual buyers due to limited supply.
According to market data, inventory levels remain well below pre-pandemic averages, and price growth continues across lakefront properties.

For many, the challenge isn’t just finding a property; it’s finding the right property: one with direct beach access, resale value, and character. Buyers scrolling through limited property listings often feel overwhelmed and under-informed, especially in fast-paced summer months when properties are in the highest demand.

Addressing this issue head-on, Liz Roch has launched her curated 2025 portfolio, featuring a handpicked selection of Lake Michigan waterfront homes for sale that showcase the best of both Union Pier and New Buffalo.

The collection includes cottages for sale, modern builds with panoramic views, and rare beachfront property that blends architectural uniqueness with walkability.

These offerings aim to meet a rising need for upscale luxury waterfront properties on Lake Michigan, many of which are suitable for both personal retreats and high-performing vacation rentals. From charming lakefront cottages to newly listed lakefront condos, Roch’s portfolio provides access to properties rarely seen on the open market.

The 2025 portfolio includes lakefront homes with expansive decks, chef-grade kitchens, and spacious outdoor areas,all in proximity to shops, restaurants, and cultural offerings. These listings capture the wooded seclusion and architectural diversity that make beach houses especially attractive.

When speaking about the need for having a lakefront property portfolio, a representative stated, “Today’s buyers want more than just square footage; they’re looking for lifestyle, for a place that reconnects them with nature and simplicity without giving up luxury. The selected properties from Union Pier and New Buffalo reflect that vision, and we’re proud to offer access to some of the region’s most exclusive listings.”

Liz Roch’s approach is centered on integrity, data-driven decision-making, and personalized guidance. From condos in Union Pier to luxury waterfront properties in Lake Michigan, the new 2025 portfolio delivers access and opportunity in one of the Midwest’s most desirable waterfront regions.

As inventory remains tight and demand continues to climb, access to expertly curated New Buffalo and Union Pier lakefront homes becomes a critical advantage.
