WOW!!!

Listed a house in Fishers on a Thursday, got it in the system on Friday, had 10 showings over the weekend and by Sunday I had 3 offers and 2 more coming in.

Is it the market? The $8000 tax credit generating first time home buyers and then those Sellers are moving up. Whatever, it was a great experience for me and my Sellers.

I have had people ask me, what was it about that house.....your guess is as good as mine, but I sure would like a few more like that..

“I Still Love Roundabouts”

Why not?

Roundabouts save gas and help traffic move along. Carmel has seen a 78% drop in accidents and a savings of 24,000 gallons of gas per year since installing
their roundabouts 10 years ago.

Noblesville has plans for about 10 more along with the six plus two it shares with Fishers. Carmel has 37 roundabouts and is planning 27 more.

We might as well learn to drive in them. If you have not grown up with them you
probably think they are crazy or scary, but if you can just understand the concept,life will move at a smoother pace. Why sit at a stop light when you can just keep moving.
