Chris Castetter quoted in the Hendricks County Business Leader...

Everyone knows how dismal the housing market has been recently. Chris Castetter knows. He is a Realtor. He is also a small business owner and knew he had to do something. "You have to change with the times or fall through the cracks," he says. As the downturn continued, Castetter asked himself, "What is it going to take to set me apart?" He researched successful agents nationwide and interviewed them. "I educated myself (to know) what it means to have a website and how to drive traffic to it"

Castetter says. He uses his website to educate consumers and keep them informed. "The marketing for sales is mostly web-based now," he adds. Castetter also reassessed how he worked. As a result, he hired another agent to concentrate on homebuyers, so he could concentrate on sellers. He established a partnership with Home Matters, LLC, a professional home staging company and added a consultation for all of his listing clients. Administratively, he hired an assistant. Now he spends most of his time working with clients and building his business.

"I determined what I had to do to survive, and thrive in this economic climate. The foundation of my past clients was and is my saving grace (in the beginning), and now I am meeting new people I may never have had contact with (through my website)." He credits the strategic changes made in his business for making 2009 his strongest sales year to date. Score one for small business.

Parks at Prestwick in Avon offers some of the most beautiful land in Hendricks County. Scenic tree lined and sloping hillside lots sitting above the Prestwick Country Club. On either side of the custom home lots are paired ranch maintenace free communities. I've always been a huge fan of these communities. No yard work, no shoveling snow, no exterior maintenance! Okay, so it's really a huge benefit for my husband, but still, if he's not busy maintaining all these items, I could create another honey - do list :) I mean honey-please list.

Last year the largest builder of maintenace free homes in Indianapolis went out of business and the communities are in foreclosure. I have been working with the Receiver of the homes at Grant Park and after a few months of getting all the details in place, I now have some of the homes at Grant Park listed and ready to sell. We will be adding additional homes to the inventory soon.

Although not officially bank owned, we have been given the liberty to price these homes to SELL.The price represents a savings of 25-30% off what the builder had these homes listed for.

My favorite model is the Majestic with the optional bonus room. We just happen to have one available. With over 2900 square foot, you would never know you are in a condo. This model home features a double sun room with a wall of windows overlooking the pond, hardwood flooring, fireplace and custom upgrades throughout.

I will be there on Sundays from 1-4 with all five models open, plus four additional homes. We have some homes which can be finished to specifications. Come by and check out this beautiful community. I'll see you there!
