THE FERNALD TEAM

CEDAR CREEK LAKE'S #1 TEAM

There is simply no substitute for our nearly 60 years of experience

Buying a lake home is huge emotional investment, one that should not be made without expert advice and assistance.  We will work together with you to bring you the added support of two experts with your best interest in mind.  We will work hand in hand with you to find your next dream home - or get the best price for your property.  For most of our clients, a lake house is a large financial investment. For us, the most valuable investment is the relationships we build along the way.  We cherish the many friends we have made selling at the lake.

Stan has been selling real estate with Johnson Monroe since 2000, was Rookie of the Year in 2001, increased production every year and with over $14,000,000 sold in 2006 was the company top producer, his last year of individual production before forming The Fernald Team.  Karen joined Stan in 2005 and with combined sales of $11,000,000 in 2005, over $18,000,000 in 2006, over $15,000,000 in 2007 & 2008 and over $16,000,000 in 2009, The Fernald Team quickly became Cedar Creek Lake's perennial #1 team.  We clearly know the Cedar Creek Lake real estate market, what our clients need and what they deserve. 

This is our business and our home.  We live on the lake, love every minute and we look forward to helping others have the same experience. Cruising the lake looking at the wonderful homes, visiting friends, having dinner, watching the sunsets or better, the incredible full moon coming up over the lake, they are all memories we want you to enjoy also.  With Cedar Creek Lake having over 300 miles of shoreline and over 300 additions, taking advantage of our extensive knowledge and experience will greatly increase the probability of positive results.  You are not just buying a lake house.  You are buying a place for your boat as well as a special place for your family and friends to love and enjoy the Cedar Creek Lake experience.  You are buying a place in which you will create many wonderful memories.

Referrals are our primary source of business, so highly satisfied clients are our number one priority. It is our goal to help you find the perfect place to call home or the perfect buyer for your home.  We will save you both time and the frustration that all too often happens by not having an experienced REALTOR® who knows and understands both the Cedar Creek Lake market and the lake itself.

Our background and experience in commercial real estate is also very strong as is our commitment to helping to strengthen the local economy.  Finding the perfect buyer to get La Quinta Inn in Gun Barrel City complete, up and running was our goal and it is open for business.  Our purpose is to promote the Cedar Creek Lake area, businesses and opportunities so that our lake house clients have all they need when they come to the lake.

We invite you to compare our production and experience with that of any other agent or team.  We want you to know that you will be making the best decision by choosing to work with The Fernald Team.

   KAREN FERNALD, REALTOR®

A Longview, Texas native and graduate of Texas A&M, I obtained my real estate license in 1973. I owned and operated a retail ladies' ready to wear business prior to becoming active in residential real estate in Longview in 1999. My experience in retail was perfect for real estate in working with and learning the tastes of my clients, thus making the transition very easy. Having a love of decorating, I enjoy working with clients on ways to make their lake home perfect for selling or owning.

I absolutely love Cedar Creek Lake, and its constant "vacation" atmosphere makes selling real estate here a true pleasure. I love working with and helping my clients find just the right lake house!  I want them to sit on their deck in the evening and think "what could be better than this?"

STAN FERNALD, ASSOCIATE BROKER, ABR, SRES

I am a Dallas native, grew up in the Park Cities and received my BBA & MBA from SMU.  I have 45 year's experience as a real estate broker in retail, commercial and residential sales and leasing as well as mortgage lending. 6 years in the Marine Corps provided leadership and discipline.  I spent my first 20 years in the Dallas area in retail and commercial property development, management, leasing, sales and construction.  I moved to Cedar Creek Lake in 1989 and became active in the real estate market here.  

As an Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR), I am qualified to work with all buyers to insure that they find just the right home for the best price.  The Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) designation has trained me to work will all customers of all ages, understanding their needs and motivations.  Being an avid boater, I have spent a great deal of time on Texas lakes. The knowledge I have gained from this as well as my extensive personal knowledge of Cedar Creek Lake is immeasurable in helping people buying and selling lake property.

Certifications

Cedar Creek Lake has it all. On one hand, Cedar Creek Lake is the epitome of peacefulness and tranquility, a far cry from the hustle and bustle of urban life. On the other hand, Cedar Creek Lake is the perfect place for activities: water or jet skiing, fishing, sailing, biking and golfing.

Cedar Creek Lake was created in 1964 as a water reservoir for Tarrant County. The lake spans roughly 38,000 water surface acres and approximately 328 miles of shoreline. It is one of the very few lakes in Northeast Texas that allows property ownership of the waterfront with the ability to have your own private boathouse. It is one of the largest lakes in Texas and is known for both its excellent fishing and abundant area for watersports.

The short one hour commute from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) area is a big benefit  to both "weekenders" and recreational second home owners that permanently live in DFW and those permanent residents that commute to DFW for work or entertainment. Cedar Creek Lake has also been recognized as one of the best places in the country to live for retirement.

Cedar Creek Lake is the centerpiece of numerous small towns surrounding the lake. These small towns collectively account for over 50,000 permanent residents. Permanent residents, weekenders and visitors will find an ample selection of retail shopping areas, country clubs, fine restaurants, and entertainment. Excellent local schools and an abundant choice of church affiliations round out a complete package.
