ST LOUIS, MISSOURI: 'Lakefront Empire' will premiere on Monday, March 11, at 10 pm ET/PT, and will be available to watch on Max the same day and time.

HGTV's new real estate series will take viewers to the Hamptons of the Midwest: Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks, well known as the ultimate party destination for millions of visitors.

With its lush landscape, wide blue waters, and endless entertainment, the Lake of the Ozarks is one of the most beautiful places in the nation.

In the eight-episode season, Peggy Albers and other colorful real estate agents work hard in the hottest months of the year to secure dream waterfront homes for their clients.

These agents include longtime residents Cierra Grein and [brothers] Jonas and Justin Farrell, as well as recent arrivals to the lake, Gerardo Cornejo and Amanda Smith.

Agents also provide a taste of reasonably priced luxury to prospective purchasers on more limited budgets. The agents, who are knowledgeable about the lake's vibrant social scene and top locations to reside, use their astute negotiating abilities to seal significant transactions when it is time to make an offer.

What to expect from 'Lakefront Empire'?

In the series debut, Peggy shows potential clients three luxurious lakeside properties in Linn Creek, Porto Cima, and Sunrise Beach. As they stroll through the first home, Peggy shares her redemption story with the couple.

In the meantime, brothers Jonas and Justin, who now operate their parents' real estate office, visit the North Shore and Camdenton to assist local business owners in purchasing their dream lakeside weekend cottage.

As the series progresses, the brokers advise potential homeowners to look at houses in other popular Lake of the Ozarks areas, including Four Seasons, Gravois Mills, and Osage Beach.

"We used to say that the Lake of the Ozarks was the country's greatest kept secret," Jonas said.

Who stars in 'Lakefront Empire'?

The Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri is the ultimate party destination for millions of visitors and the star of HGTV's new real estate series, 'Lakefront Empire'.

Its highly sought-after prime water frontage, massive custom pools and hot tubs, and extravagantly decked-out docks valued at up to $450K with boat slips, wet bars, and double-decker water slides add glamour to the show.

A colorful cast of real estate agents, including former felon Peggy; longtime residents Jonas, Justin, and Cierra; and recent arrivals to the lake Gerardo and Amanda, work hard during the summer months to secure their clients' ideal waterfront homes.

One of the most effective agents at the lake, Peggy, was once convicted of a felony.

"I don't think people realize we have a Midwest coast," she adds. Peggy further stated, "In the Lake of the Ozarks, the market has exploded. There was over a billion dollars in sales last year."
