you a good idea what took place, but I'll walk you through
GRADUATION DAY!
Everything that was learned over the past two weeks leads up to this day. Today is the day when everyone gets the opportunity to show and tell what they've learned. Dressed in their Sunday best, prepared, and a little nervous, each brand new REALTOR had the opportunity to role play their marketing presentations to a pretend seller.
So many scenarios were presented throughout the day. Scenarios from FSBO, Expireds, to downtown Indianapolis homes, to Carmel real estate, and everything in between, presentations were successfully played out.
The management team who participated today felt like proud parents
watching their children soar! "
I love this day" said Tracy Hutton, Vice President of CENTURY 21 Scheetz. "
It's such a great learning experience, and helps us all learn from each other.It also reminds us how much value we offer and how to express that value"
Congratulations to each of our REALTORS who successfully achieved each challenge presented to them today, kept their wits about them, and confidently presented their value as a CENTURY 21 Scheetz REALTOR.
We are excited to see you build your business and begin selling homes in Indianapolis and surrounding counties.
NOW, GO! The skies the limit for each and every one of you!! Your ongoing coaching sessions will ensure you stay on track and you reach your personal business goals.

"And now in the main ring... IRVINGTON vs. DOWNTOWN INDY!!"
Last week, I took a client out to see a home on N. Campbell Street, in beautiful Historic Irvington. He and his wife are looking to purchase their perfect home and turn their existing home into a nice rental.
As we walked around the home, we talked about the comparison of Irvington Homes versus Indianapolis Historic Homes Downtown Indy. We compared Irvington's classic brick exterior versus Historic Downtown Indianapolis' multi-colored wood sidings, as well as the extent of updates and amenities, as Downtown Indy continues to lead the pack, adding luxury extras often found in Carmel Indiana real estate.
The home prices are very similar, though Irvington tends to be less in most cases. Excluding bank owned homes for sale, these home prices are typically above the $100,000's, sometimes soaring above the $200,000's and beyond. I'm positive this is due to the wonderful things to do nearby, most within walking distance. Restaurants, book stores, clothing stores, pet boutiques, the library, walking trails, and more are found each in Historic Irvington and Downtown Indy.
If you're checking out Downtown Indy as your new neighborhood, don't forget to include Historic Irvington in your search. Only 10 minutes away, it's a local, comparable secret, often without the pricetag of Downtown!
So who's the winner of Irvington vs. Downtown Indy?
Only you can tell, once you start touring the homes yourself and seeing what fits your lifestyle!
Contact
Katie Bogan of Century 21 Scheetz for more comparables of these areas, and be surprised what the market has available for buyers!
My clients were able to purchase a bank owned homes as first time home buyers. The homes was located in downtown Indianapolis homes and needed some work. They had money set aside but really did not want to tap it all out on updating the project. I was able to get in touch with an Indianapolis lender that would do a FHA 203k loan. They were able to finance the updates in the project and not have to refinance at a later date. When it comes to purchasing bank owned home Indianapolis or Hamilton County, talk to a Indiana Licensed Realtor that can help you find different avenues to pursue your dream home!

Friday evening, my husband and I were headed to a holiday party in Carmel Indiana and drove across 116th St. We saw some really spectacular holiday lights. I often get asked about banked own homes Indianapolis and the best known is the formal Hilbert Mansion on 116th Street...with a few years on the market, no one has jumped at that $20 million dollar price tag! Across the street, is a home with a fabulous light display...it's worth a look so take your family and take a drive! This party was simply lovely, the hosts have a daughter at the
International School with one of my daughters and I recently enjoyed watching one of the hosts dance the role of the toymaker in the
Nutcracker. There is a lot to do in Indy, and the offerings at Clowes are just one example. Clowes, on the Butler University Campus is convenient to the Indianapolis Meridian-Kessler area, and also terribly convenient to Downtown Indianapolis Homes. Both are wonderful places to live with character filled older homes. At the party, I got to meet several of the neighbors in this lovely well established neighborhood and had several good conversations about Carmel Real Estate. One of the neighbors is a decorator and she enjoys updating homes in Carmel Indiana. We had a great discussion about updating your home as you live in it to enjoy, not just to sell. Holiday cheer brings out some of the best features of any home, take time to enjoy yours this December!
Home values in Indiana will increase in 2009. Home prices in Indiana may have presure from the national ecomony, however homes for sale in Indanapolis will still have good demand which should help real estate values in Indianapolis.
Downtown Indianapolis Real Esate will have it's ups and downs. The condo market will make a slow recovery and the homes for sale downtown Indianapolis should see a lot of activity.
Homes for sale in Broad Ripple will continue to be a favorite of first time home buyers. One of the few markets that has remained somewhat strong through the down turn. Home values in Broad Ripple will be increasing as interest rates continue to drop.
Historic homes for sale in Indianapolis will also show strong value. Meridian Kessler, one of the more popular historic neighborhoods will continue to have strong demand which should keep values strong.
For you frist home, next home or your dream home call John Creamer at (317)250-5646 or e-mail jcreamer@c21scheetz.com for over 20 years of experience as a Indianapolis Realtor.
TIS THE SEASON TO BE BUYING!
