Buying in Princeton Lakes & Rivers — the important details

🌊 Foreshore, Dock & Beach

Confirm exactly what is owned versus Crown foreshore, and whether any dock or moorage is authorized. Ask for the survey and any rights-of-way.

💧 Lake Levels & Flood

Ask about high-water history, setbacks and any flood-construction requirements that apply to the lot.
