Madisonville is a small river town where the Tchefuncte River meets Lake Pontchartrain, a short drive west of Cyndi's home in Mandeville. Buyers look here for waterfront and boat-access homes, the historic town center, Fairview-Riverside State Park nearby, and newer neighborhoods along Highway 21 and Highway 22.
Waterfront property has its own checklist: flood zone and elevation, bulkheads and docks, permits for waterfront work, and flood and wind insurance. Cyndi works through each one with you before you commit. For sellers, she markets river and lake homes with the photos and details waterfront buyers ask for first.
