For those who envy “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Cynthia Bailey’s home, you don’t have to be too jealous for long.
You could have your own version of Lake Bailey if you take a look at the offerings on the market. A lakefront home offers several benefits, too. According to RocketMortgage, you’ll always feel as if you’re on vacation and it’s generally a good investment. However, you should also be aware of the potential downsides, including the expensive insurance and leasing land.
If those are things you’re willing to take on, check out the homes below to find your vacation home, at home.
