THAT's RIGHT ...

If you live in Alaska and you are finding that Winter is lasting WAY-TOO-LONG --- why not live in a place called SANTA CLAUS??? Quite Frankly You'd be the Envy of your Neighbors :)!

I am actually working with an Alaskin Couple who are looking to spend their Winters here in Santa Claus and they were shocked by how affordable it is to buy a pre-existing home (that they could not build for the price) here. They are of course looking at Christmas Lake Village, which is our Gated Community with roughly 27 Miles of Road Way, 3 Spring-Fed Lakes, Parks & Recreation, Water Sports, Sandy Beachs and Miles of Shoreline. (Just to name a few amenities)

Our Annual (No I did not Stutter --- Our ANNUAL) Home Owner Association Fee is ONLY: $350 per year/per lot with an maximum annual increase of ONLY 5%. You can purchase a LOT (with no plans to build) and enjoy ALL the amenities within the village! You can purchase a Pre-Existing Home (Lake-Front) for under $300,000. NOTE: Our top priced property is around $900,000 (Just Under) and it is INCREDIBLE!

Our Three Lakes:

1. Christmas Lake = 217 Acres
2. Holly Lake = Approximately 35 - 45 Acres
3. Lake Noel = Approximately 35 - 45 Acres

Living In Santa Claus Indiana is like being on vacation --- YEAR ROUND!

For Buyers or Sellers who are curious about our market ... this blog is for your benefit.

JANUARY 1, 2008 - thru - JUNE 1, 2008

#Total Listings: 73
Average Price: $107,472
Median Price: $95,000
Highest Price: $650,000
Lowest Price: $10,000
Average DOM: 121

The above figures did not use: home size, location etc, but are rather a "Birds-Eye" view of the Spencer County Indiana Market (In General).

--- VS ---

The Dubois County Market (Same Time Frame)

#Total Listings: 128
Average Price: $123,833
Median Price: $111,750
Highest Price: $630,000
Lowest Price: $10,500
Average DOM: 122

As you can see ... Our Market is doing very well.

When you consider the fact that:

1. SPENCER COUNTY POPULATION: 20,528 (2005 Census)
2. DUBOIS COUNTY POPULATION: 40,858 (2005 Census)

Dubois County has roughly TWICE the population - which means that for the VOLUME of sales that the SPENCER COUNTY Market is turning over, we are selling 2 to the 1 that Dubois County is turning over. That is a pretty reasonable indication of the strength of the Spencer County Real Estate Market.
That's better for buyers AND sellers and the Economy in general.

So Thank You For Considering A Move To Spencer County Indiana.

We Are Located Approximately 40 Minutes From Evansville, 1.5 Hours From Louisville, 20 Minutes From Tell City, 20 Minutes From Rockport and about 35 Minutes From Jasper. And Do Not Forget That Santa Claus Indiana Is Home To "Holiday World Splashin' Safari" And Is A Phenominal Place To Raise A Family!
