Ironwood Golf Course of Fishers

Livability.com, a site devoted to helping you find the best city to "live, work, play and belong", just anounced their top 10 list of cities for "golfers who want to get off the beaten path".  They researched 200 of the most livable cities in the country and Fishers came up #2.

Among the things that Livability took into consideration were quality of life, cost of living, the number of public and private courses, the number of courses offering tournaments, and year-round play.  While I'm not sure how Fishers ranked in the year-round play category, I'm sure it was ranked high in the others. 

In their synopsis, they mention River Glen, Britton, Ironwood, and Gray Eagle.  This link will take you to a map of golf courses…

Last week, we received some great news from the Builders Association of Indianapolis about building permits in Hamilton County.  Permits were up 111% in January 2010 compared to 2009.  In 2009, builders pulled 53 permits compared to 112 this year. 

One of the biggest city gainers was Carmel with a 280% gain from 10 in 2009 to 38 this year.  The other big gainer was Noblesville that went from 13 permits to 30 for a 130% gain.  Fishers builder permits grew modest 18%. 

We have spoken with a few of our builder contacts that say there is still a few weeks left to get a home started so you can take advantage of the home buyer tax credit and STILL have it close by the end of June.

Hamilton County Home Sales Up 21.9% in Fourth Quarter 2009

Monday, January 25th, 2010 at 9:04am. 38 Views, 0 Comments.

Hamilton county sales were up a strong 21.9% in the fourth quarter of 2009.  The Indiana Assocation or Realtors released it's latest "Indiana Real Estate Markets Report" today showing the strong surge in real estate sales. 

The surge can be credited to the home buyer tax credit that was supposed to end in November and has since been extended.  

“December’s numbers were an encouraging way to end 2009,” said Karl Berron, Chief Executive Officer. “While October’s and November’s numbers can be linked to a rush towards the original deadline for the first-time homebuyer tax credit, December hopefully shows Indiana’s housing markets are continuing to turn around, as well as bringing some needed momentum moving into a new year.”
