Most Improved Housing Markets 2010

Monday, July 26, 2010 by Julia Evinger

All is not lost in the residential real estate market! Bloomberg Businessweek ranked Indianapolis-Carmel Indiana as #18 of the most improved residential real estate markets.

Indianapolis Photo from Bloomberg Businessweek

More good news...

The June 2010 Market Report of the BLC listing service shows that units sold for the quarter increased 10%. New pendings for April through June are down 5%.

Mortgage notes...

Rates remain extremely low. Today's rate for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage is 4 3/8%.
Despite the low rates, mortgage loan activity has decreased by 2.9% through July 9, 2010 as reported in the Indiana Business Journal's Real Estate Weekly e-newsletter.

Rates will definitely not stay this low much longer. If you are thinking about buying or selling a home - there is still time to do so this year and take advantage of attractive home pricing and financing options. Call me, Julia Evinger, at Century 21 Scheetz, to get current market information about your home's worth. I will also run comparables in neighborhoods you are considering a purchase.

What's all the fuss about Broad Ripple? Why is it so important for some people to just search for Broad Ripple Homes For Sale. We get calls regularly from buyers saying they are only interested in living in Broad Ripple. So, we decided to ask some of our past customers, "Why?".

"When I first started my home search I was looking for Downtown Indianapolis Real Estate, but the more I searched I realized that Broad Ripple was exactly what I was truly looking for.

Sold! Foreclosed Fishers home, the process was quick and easy

Friday, May 7, 2010 by Jason Engle

When a client of mine asked me to assist him with finding Fishers homes for sale, We quickly went into action. Initially, we found that there were a lot of options when considering Fishers real estate, but after we starting viewing some of the available listings on Indianapolis' local BLC, we eventually found a diamond in the rough.

Not only did we locate a foreclosure in Fishers at a great price, this particular home was move in ready! Now, as always, I advise all of my clients to wait until the proper physical inspectxions are complete before declaring victory, but it was obvious that this home was going to be a hot property so would need to act quickly.

Recent comparables easily demonstrated that this home was listed well under the current pricing levels, so coming in with a strong offer was not an issue for a single minute.

I talked my client through his options and how we could structure his offer to be as strong as possibe even though we were NOT a cash offer. To make a long story short, we won the Fishers foreclosure home in a multi bid situation and my client has a great home with a great equity position in it.

Get It Sold! SEO: How Buyers Find Your Indianapolis Home For Sale (6/8)

Saturday, March 20, 2010 by Lola McIntyre

Glub, GLub…

So, you are ready to put your Indianapolis home on the market and you don't just want to list it, you want to 'Get It Sold'! What do crawling spiders and juicy worms have to do with attracting buyers to your property? What is spider food for web crawlers and fish bait for home buyers? Grab your tackle box and pole, and let’s go fishing!

THE BIGGEST FISH HE EVER CAUGHT WERE THOSE THAT GOT AWAY ~Eugene Field 

Whether you are selling your Geist waterfront home, connecting with your friends, engaging in community service, or researching your family tree, one question remains: How will others find what I have to say?

Approaching the same topic from another perspective, buyers initiating their home search from the social web, may ask: How can I find what I'm looking for? Will they find your waterfront home on Geist reservoir or your new custom Carmel home near the Monon?

During several speaking engagements in the past year about social media marketing, one common theme arose from participants at each event: What is SEO? They may not ask the question, directly, but their questions (or answer to their questions) point to the very topic which serves as an essential foundation to broadening & deepening one’s voice on today’s social web. And, these advanced on-line marketing skills are vital to you in selling your home in today’s market.

HEY WORLD! THEY’RE BITING OVER HERE!

Pretend for a minute we are fishing at Geist Reservoir or Morse Lake near Indianapolis, Indiana. We stand on the dock or row out into the center of the lake with our fishing buddies. Then each drops their line into the lake. One friend’s fishing line has no hook, the other friend’s pole has a hook with a plastic worm. But, you have cast your line to the optimum spot and the bobber is set for the hook to reach the very heart of a school of fish. Add to the optimum depth & lake location, a hook with the juiciest worm and strongest line. It was a fight to the end, but you nabbed the largest fish in the shortest amount of time.

I DIDN’T GO FISHING; I WET A LINE. ~ W.R. McIntyre, Sr.

You may ask: Is it possible to sell my home in today’s market and glean multiple offers? Yes.
Is it possible to sell my home in a matter of days? Sure. Does this happen by accident? Rarely.

Extraordinary results are due to advanced marketing skills relevant to today’s buyer.

How does SEO matter when all you want is to 'Get It Sold'?
Interestingly, the social web is changing how people search. Respected marketing expert and author Bernie Borges from the Tampa Bay area shares in his popular blog & podcasts, SEO has become SO. I have experienced this first hand. Buyers no longer limit their on-line searches to popular real estate web sites or Google. I have had buyers find me through their trusted on-line communities like Linked-IN, Facebook, and Twitter. SEO is an acronym, which means: Search Engine Optimization. As an early proponent of digital media, I continually look for emerging technologies and principles which give my clients the best advantage in our challenging market. Advanced marketing skills make it possible for us to leverage Google & Bing maps for your property to be found near the top of organic search results.

Just as the juiciest worm, best hook, strongest line at the right depth fetches the largest fish, so too, powerful digital ‘bait’ serves to attract & hook the web crawlers for buyers to find your Indianapolis home for sale as their next dream home.

THE CHARM OF FISHING IS THAT IT IS THE PURSUIT OF WHAT IS ELUSIVE BUT ATTAINABLE, A PERPETUAL SERIES OF OCCASIONS FOR HOPE. ~ John Buchan

Do more than hope. Trust value, quality, & skill when listing your Indianapolis home for sale.

Living and Enjoying Geist Reservoir

Wednesday, January 20, 2010 by Neal Group

Geist Reservoir is a Reservoir man made out of Fall Creek in Northeast Indianapolis and Southeast Fishers, Indiana. The area is home to many Indiana local celebrities, politicians, and professional athletes. As a East Fishers Resident myself, I enjoy all Geist Reservoir has to offer. There is a marina and a waterfront Restaurant named Bella Vita. The public marina has boat slip rentals that run from approximately $1200-$2500 a season. Since I do not live directly on the lake, I have leased a slip here for over three years and enjoy it very much. I typically put my boat in April and take it out in the end of October every year. On the lake you can enjoy skiing, wakeboarding, fishing, and just taking a casual boat ride around the lake. Bella Vita serves Italian/Seafood American food and is very good. There are several other bars and restaraunts in the marina area including Puccinis and Eddy's as well. For non boaters there are many walking trails and other attractions such as rolling hills and wooded areas to be enjoyed by all.

For Indianapolis Indiana Homes for sale Geist has many opportunities. The most expensive currently available is over 11,000 sq ft for over 3.7 million. The lowest priced home on the lake is priced around $320,000 and it is in the Intracoastal of Geist section. There are many Indianapolis condos on the market as well starting at $235,000 in Shorewalk to approxmately $600,000 in Marina Village. There are still several lots available to build the home of your dreams as well. Homes on the main body of the lake tend to be more expensive and homes on the coves are less. Several of my client's prefer the coves for they are quieter during the boating season due to the coves being "no wake zones". The views on mainbody are hard to beat and with Real Estate prices being reduced significantly in the current buyer's market there are many options to choose from. If you are looking to live near the lake but not on it there are many less expensive options as well with some have deeded boat docks.

I am an expert Geist Realtor and I would be personally happy to show you homes anytime or answer any questions you have about the area and Indianapolis Real Estate for Sale. We sell many homes in the area and represent many buyers in purchasing homes as well. Myself and my group are available anytime at 317-513-7695 or 317-679-0108 or you can email us at aneal@c21scheetz.com In the warmer months we give boat tours of the lake as well for our Real Estate clients. If you currently own a home you can also call me, Andrew Neal with The Andrew Neal Group at CENTURY 21 Scheetz anytime at 317-513-7695, and I would be happy to give you an approximate value of your home.
