"Wally represented the whole picture of what we wanted in a real estate agent. A good businessman with careful attention to detail, great people instincts, and a great sense of humor. We loved spending time with him and knew that he understood the heart and soul of Walloon Lake. We were so impressed with the care he took to assure the transaction was a win-win for us and for the buyers. In the end, we never doubted our choice."

"It was a hard decision for us to sell our Walloon Lake home, and we needed to work with someone who not only understood the Walloon Lake real estate market but also understood the emotions that go into selling a longtime family home. We trusted Wally with this major decision in our life, and Wally delivered in every way. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home on beautiful Walloon."

"My wife and I hired Wally to help us find our home on Walloon Lake. Having lived in Northern Michigan for many years, Wally is an expert on Walloon Lake properties. He shared extensive knowledge of the history and geographic highlights of the properties we were shown. Wally helped connect us with our new neighbors as well, friendly with many people in the community. He is dedicated to finding his clients the right home - listening to our family’s needs, getting answers to our questions, and leading us to the perfect match. Wally is supported by a team of professionals who also exhibit his positive attributes - knowledgeable, courteous, and committed to clients. We would highly recommend Wally and his team to anyone seeking an agent to assist in purchasing a Northern Michigan property."

"My wife and I have known Wally Kidd for a number of years and have been working with him to find the perfect cottage for our multigenerational family on Walloon Lake. We received a call from Wally in early November letting us know that he thought he might have a cottage for us. We immediately made arrangements to fly to Northern Michigan to view the cottage. He was right, we made an offer that day. Wally, Lauren, and the rest of his team were beyond helpful in working through some of the challenges and various issues that presented themselves during Covid. Not least of which was that our principal residence is in the Kansas City metro area and everything had to be done virtually. We could not have been more pleased with Wally and his team for all of the advice and counsel that they provided us during the entire process!"

"We have known and worked with Wally Kidd on both the buy-side and sell-side of Walloon Lake real estate. During our 40 years on Walloon, we can say without question, nobody knows this lake, what it has to offer and valuations, like Wally. Not only is he a professional in his field, but he is also a neighbor, friend and trusted advisor. We highly recommend talking to Wally if you are ever interested in buying or selling on Walloon Lake."

"I have worked with many realtors in the past. I used to own a real estate franchise and managed realtors. Wally is the best realtor I have worked with. His knowledge of the area and ability to make the small details fall into place were far above expectations. He and Lauren were wonderful to work with and communicate with, and I hope I have a reason to buy or sell in the area again so we can work together."

"In 1888, our family built a cottage on the shores of Walloon Lake. Almost 120 years later it was time for us to sell our cherished possession. After a lengthy interview process, it became clear that there was only one realtor that could handle this important and emotional transaction for us that was Wally Kidd. Finding a broker who we trusted was a must, finding one whose family has a similar, storied history on the lake was really unique. He clearly understood what it meant for my family to transfer the ownership of this cottage. He handled it beautifully. Wally was always professional and became a valued friend in the end. No one knows Walloon Lake like Wally!"

"It has been a pleasure to work with Wally and his team over the years. His honest and straightforward approach is a rarity in today’s residential real estate market. Not only does he have a great command of the local real estate market, but he is extremely well established and well versed in the local community and its goings-on. He has proven to be a wealth of knowledge and an enormous help to us. Wally is a lot more than our real estate broker. We consider him and his wife to be our friends. We look forward to enjoying our home on Walloon Lake, and we have Wally to thank for it."

"We had the privilege of working with Wally and his team when we recently sold our condominium in Boyne City. Wally was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was always accessible, never failed to return a phone call and made the whole process easy. We have been involved in many other real estate transactions over the years and our transaction with Wally was undoubtedly the smoothest. There were even a couple of times that we needed some quick reparations done and Wally instantly was able to reach out to his network of people and see to it that the jobs were accomplished expeditiously and professionally. We would recommend Wally Kidd and his team to anybody who is looking for a competent, communicative realtor who in addition possesses a vast knowledge of the area. Four thumbs up, for sure."
