Broadripple, which is arguably Indianapolis’ coolest area, is about to get a little cooler. The Fresh Market has started construction of its second store in the Indianapolis area. The Fresh Market is an upscale grocery store that has everything from fresh produce, gourmet meats, specialty foods, and great wine and beer selection.
The store will be located on the site of the former Atlas Supermarket at 54th and College Avenue. One of the neatest things about the construction of this store is that due to limited space they will be utilizing the rooftop for parking.
The store is being developed by Kite Realty Group and is scheduled to open in May. The Fresh Market has another location in Carmel off of 146th Street just east of US-31. This store is…
Read Full PostIndiana Real Estate Taxes Update
Property tax reform is coming in Indiana, one way or another, good or bad, it is coming. This is THE top issue on everybody’s mind and agenda right now, however the details of the tax reform are getting sticky.
Governor Mitch Daniels has proposed his “1-2-3 plan” which limits property taxes to 1% of the assessed value for residential, 2% for rentals, and 3% for commercial. I think everyone agrees that this is good starting off point, but many disagree about the details of the tax reform. In addition, in order to pay for this tax reform the governor is proposing a 1% sales tax increase.
The 1% sales tax increase could prove to be a very hard measure to pass for Indiana lawmakers. The speaker of the house has already said that it not be easy to the…

Read Full PostIndianapolis Real Estate - Market Report - October 2007
I don’t normally like to do a report just on Indianapolis real estate because I feel that it too broad of a search to get a realistic picture of what is going on in the marketplace. However, it does provide some good overall data that can be used to compare with some more local statistics. So, I will give the Indianapolis numbers and then follow it up broken down by townships so that we can see how the individual townships fare as compared to the overall market.
