David Lott has been an active member and pioneer in the marketing of golf and water view real estate for more than 30 years. He got his start writing special travel and real estate sections for the New York Times Sports & Leisure Group Magazines, including Golf Digest, Golf World, Tennis and Snow Country.In 1995 he launched Golf Course Home, the Executive's Guide to Golf Course Real Estate, as a pre-printed insert in INC. Magazine. The 'magazine within the magazine' featured master-planned golf and water view communities, Four years later he migrated the concept to the web in 1999 with the launch of GolfCourseHome.com, becoming an early pioneer in the creation of what is now called 'native content." "The key to success with native content," says Lott, "is that it has to provide real, actionable information that a consumer can use to make an informed decision."Golf Course Home has since evolved into the Golf Course Home Network, featuring multiple websites devoted to delivering golf and water view real estate prospects to its more than 100 golf and water view master-planned communities. Recently, the GCH Network relaunched WaterViewHome.net which is dedicated to water view communities on lakes, rivers, oceans, marshes and ponds.Recognizing the evolution of master-planned communities from golf-centric entities to growing communities featuring multiple outlets for residents' passions--biking, fitness, gardening, philanthropic efforts, cultural and town centers, pets, and more, Lott initiated a biennial ranking of the "Best Golf Communities in North America," which focuses on communities that enable their residents to pursue their passions, enabling them to live a fuller and more satisfying life.Lott is also the Principal Broker & Owner of Vineyard Open House Real Estate located in Vineyard Haven on the island of Martha's Vineyard.
