Nearly 40 Years of Expertise Across Southeast Michigan
For nearly four decades, Anton Sowerby & Associates has built a strong foundation in Macomb County—but our reach, relationships, and expertise extend far beyond it. As our clients’ needs have evolved, so have we—growing into a firm that serves communities
across Southeast Michigan, from expanding commercial corridors in Lapeer to unique waterfront opportunities on Harsens Island.
While Macomb County remains central to our history, today’s market is regional—and so are we. Whether it’s development land, investment properties, or waterfront redevelopment opportunities, we’re proud to help clients capitalize on opportunities wherever they arise.
Local Roots, Regional Reach
Our deep experience in Macomb County has given us unmatched insight into Southeast Michigan real estate—but what truly defines Anton Sowerby & Associates is our ability to apply that expertise across multiple markets.
From high-visibility commercial land to income-producing waterfront assets, we help buyers, sellers, and investors identify opportunities that align with their goals—no matter the location.
Two of our current featured listings highlight exactly what that expanded reach looks like.

Lapeer Commercial Development Opportunity
One of the exciting opportunities outside Macomb County is our 6.29-acre commercial parcel on Trade Center Way in Lapeer.
This property is ideally positioned for growth and development:
6.29 +/- acres (273,992 SF) of commercially zoned land
400 feet of frontage on I-69 with immediate freeway access
Sale price: $269,000 ($42,766 per acre)
Located just minutes from Downtown Lapeer in a rapidly growing area
Positioned directly across from Lapeer Country Club
What makes this property particularly compelling is its flexibility. With commercial zoning already in place, it supports a wide range of uses including:
Service centers
Contractor yards
Warehousing and storage
General commercial development
Combined with easy ingress and egress from Lake Nepessing Road, this parcel offers both accessibility and visibility—key factors for long-term success.
For investors or developers looking to enter a high-growth corridor, this Lapeer property represents a strategic opportunity to secure land in a market that continues to expand.
Harsens Island Marina Redevelopment Opportunity

On the other end of the spectrum—both geographically and in lifestyle—is a truly unique waterfront asset: Schneider’s Marina at 7116 McDonald St. on Harsens Island.
This property offers a rare blend of current income potential and long-term redevelopment upside, making it one of the most distinctive listings in our portfolio.
Current Property Highlights
Active marina with established clientele
18,000+ square feet
Situated on 5.045 +/- acres
1,140 +/- feet of canal frontage with deepwater access
25 covered and 17 outdoor boat wells
Includes fuel dock, service bay, and utility infrastructure (electric and municipal water)
Sale price: $859,000
Located along the South Channel, the property offers direct canal access with panoramic waterfront views, a highly sought-after feature in this region.
Redevelopment & Expansion Potential
What truly sets this property apart is its versatility for future use:
Expand marina operations by adding mechanical bays or increasing well capacity
Increase revenue through expanded fuel sales and services
Utilize excess land for residential development with private boat wells
Modernize existing structures for improved efficiency
Or pursue a full redevelopment into a canal-front residential community with private boathouses
This combination of existing operational income and redevelopment flexibility is rare—especially in a waterfront market with limited availability like Harsens Island.
Experience That Goes Where Opportunity Is
These two listings—from a high-visibility commercial site in Lapeer to a one-of-a-kind marina on Harsens Island—demonstrate what Anton Sowerby & Associates has become over nearly 40 years in business:
A trusted local expert in Macomb County and beyond
A regional resource for complex transactions
A strategic partner for investors, developers, and property owners
We understand that today’s real estate opportunities aren’t confined by county lines—and neither are we.
