Does the thought of Island property get you excited?  Well, combine Island property with the Door County Peninsula and you have some really exciting opportunities!

Washington Island is located off the tip of Gills Rock, about a pleasant 20 minute Ferry Boat ride away.  The Island offers a lot, from beautiful shores with sun-kissed waters, to museums, untouched inland fields and woods, great restaurants, shops, fishing, golf, and plenty of other outdoor activities year-round.  This is truly a tranquil, peaceful community and a genuine Door County experience.  This is the island-life, Door County style!

We spent some time talking real estate with Jerry Rupiper, the founder and owner of Washington Island Realty Inc. since 2004, headquartered on Washington Island here in Door County Wisconsin. Located just about one-and-a-half miles from the Ferry Dock, make sure you stop in to see Jerry on your next trip to the Island, or call him and make an appointment – he can show you some great properties and land on the Island!

And  Washington Island Realty has cooperative agreements with other Door County real estate offices, so if you see a property you like listed anywhere, Jerry can still take care of your needs.  Check their website for there MLS listings page and do a search!

Jerry Rupiper, owner

Jerry, who has lived in the Washington Island community almost all of his life, is a Licensed Real Estate Broker for Wisconsin, and is a member of the Door County Board of Realtors.  He also has experience in construction and even lumber yard management – nice additional skills for your real estate agent to have when looking for a property for you!   This can give him additional insight into existing properties that others might miss.

Jerry says that he has an interest in construction and hopes to offer his realty customers who are purchasing vacant land his services of coordinating the construction process for them – now that is a great combination! 

Washington Island Focus
Having spent most of his life on the Island, Jerry knows it well.  His real estate focus is really all about Washington Island, as that is what he spends 95% of his real estate time on – he knows the Island!  While gladly listing properties for sale on the Island, Jerry says he “works with buyers as a primary focus” of his.  And because Washington Island is, well, an island, he focuses a lot of his energy on finding homes for buyers, and vacant land – especially waterfront land.

When Jerry sells vacant land, some of the “extras” he brings tot the table are things like setting up buyers with builders – as Jerry says, “there are unique challenges building on the island” and his background in construction and his knowledge of builders can really go a long way to help you out when buying land here.

Washington Island Realty, Inc.’s customers also think Jerry has a lot to offer.  Here’s what one of his clients just said about Jerry and his services:

“Jerry  gave personal attention to my needs and the needs of my family in finding our new home on the Island,  his assistance made our purchase of an island home a pleasant experience . . . his knowledge has been a great resource”  - Kirsten S.
