Indianapolis Condominiums - Supply Outpaces Demand
The Indianapolis condominium market is about to become even more of a buyer’s market; with over 1,000 units either recently built or under construction competition is getting fierce and prices are being reduced. This situation is not unique to the Indianapolis area as developers across the country face the same situation. Many condo projects were started several years ago during the real estate boom and have yet to be completed leaving developers with unsold units and a changed marketplace. While some condos are being converted to rental units, there is still a huge supply of condos on the market. According the National Association of Realtors, the U.S. finished 2007 with enough condos to absorb 10 months of demand; and with more and more projects…
Indianapolis Parade Of Homes - Spring 2008
The spring Indianapolis Parade of Homes is taking place over the next two weekends April 26 and 27 and May 3 and 4 from noon to 6:00 PM as is being billed as Indianapolis’ largest open house. The Indianapolis Parade of homes will feature over 120 new homes from various builders and price ranges. Custom home builders and production builders alike with partake in event and all of the homes are for sale, except certain model homes.

Renaissance Bay Indianapolis
The new upscale condo project in the Keystone area Renaissance Bay is ruffling some feathers with its some its neighbors over the future use of the current sales trailer. Some of the neighbors are in a tizzy because after the initial plan for Renaissance Bay were approved; the developer acquired an additional piece of land north of 78th street and is currently using that for their sales center.
The neighbors are concerned that once the sales center is no longer needed they will either build who knows what on the property or sell it to a third party to build who knows what. They are also arguing that the land is not currently zoned for the commercial activity the developer is currently using it for. The neighbors and the city council would like to…
Indianapoils Property Tax Reform
What seems like forever ago, I wrote this post about the totally screwed up tax situation in Indiana and especially Marion County. After much haggling and debate, our beloved Indiana lawmakers finally passed some meaningful tax reform. This past Friday the State House and Senate voted into law Act 1001 which, theoretically, will change Indiana’s tax system forever.
What does this mean for my property taxes?
- This year the average tax bill will drop by an average of 30% thanks to additional homestead credits.
- In 2009, your tax bill will be no more than 1.5% of the assessed value of your home.
- 2010 and on your tax bill will be no more than 1% of the assessed value.
- Rental properties and farms are capped at 2% and businesses…
Greatest Real Estate Agent In The World And The Power Of REW Blogs
I am not, nor do I claim to be, any sort of SEO expert. Quite the contrary, I am a SEO novice, or is it a beginner? Whatever it is, I feel like I know just enough to enough to be dangerous.

I try to take in as much SEO knowledge as possible, but quickly get overwhelmed by how much there is to know and how fast it changes. I read several blogs everyday and try to glean as much information as my tiny brain will allow, but yet I still feel overwhelmed and confused. With the competition getting stiffer and more crowded, I feel halfway decent that I am 15th-ish in…
