The unique
characteristics of the Priest Lake area create a real estate
market like no other in the nation. Approximately
65% of the waterfront property is owned and managed by a state
or federal agency. The historic management policies of these
agencies have played a major role in retaining the natural character
of the shoreline as well as shaping the demographic composition
of Priest Lake. Leaseholders on these government owned properties
have the right to sell their structures on the property as well
as the underlying lease itself. The decision to "purchase" leased
property or buy deeded property is a matter of personal preference.
Area real estate agencies will gladly discuss the economies of
each option with potential buyers.
 Most of the land on the east side of the
lake is owned by the State of Idaho and managed by the Idaho Department
of Lands (IDL) while the west side is predominately federal land managed
by the Priest Lake Ranger District. There are approximately 350 state leases
and 127 federal leases in the Priest Lake area, the majority of which are
lakefront properties.
A limited number of secondary deeded properties and even fewer deeded lakefront
properties are normally available for purchase. Since there is a very limited
amount of privately owned deeded land, many parcels are bordered on at
least one side by federal or state land. This effectively limits development
in the area.
The area real estate agencies listed below will be able to assist those
who are interested in property acquisition in the Priest Lake area.
