Well, it's been a while since we've brought you the most recent stats for our local real estate market but from now on, we intend to dedicate Fridays to be our "Week In Review" - where we will specifically take a closer look at our local Greenwood IN Real Estate market.
In this segment we will recap all of the New Listings that just came on the market within the last week; the homes that are Now Pending With Accepted Offers over the last week; homes that Officially Closed in the last week and last but not least, the "rejects"...the homes that were on the market, came to the end of their listing contract and Expired Without Selling. All of the data will run from Friday to Thursday. So this week's data is from April 10 - 16, 2009.
We have broken the list prices into categories: $50k - $100k, $100k - $150k, etc. We have also separated the results by school system (Greenwood and Center Grove) since people always seem to be curious about the differences between the two.
We hope this will be helpful information for you. It will also be curious to see how the numbers change over the next few weeks as we get ready to enter the "busy season".
Have any comments or would like to see some additional information we haven't included? By all means, please let us know...Enjoy!

We feel very fortunate to be in a place where most of our business comes from repeat business or from the kind referrals we continue to receive from friends, family and past clients.
However, every once in a while someone might stumble upon Shawna's Home Team through a flyer or a postcard and they don't really know us that well and want to take a closer look before making the plunge and deciding to list their home with us.
We completely understand and for that very reason, we have attached below a list of some helpful resources that we think will help answer most, if not all of the questions you might have about Shawna's Home Team and how the marketing we do sets us apart from our competition.
So if you have a few minutes to spare, please browse through the links below and if you still have questions about any of it, please feel free to contact us directly at 317.893.1636 and we would be happy to answer any additional questions you might have.

Have ya ever noticed that it's always the bad news that seems to get all the press?
Our favorite shows are only interrupted with "Breaking News" that would alarm or scare the viewers..."A gunman is loose"..."An apartment building is on fire"..."A child has been kidnapped"...
Yes, these are all important stories, but isn't good news ever considered to be just as important?
My point is that right now, all of the media networks seem to be having a hey day reporting the bad, bad real estate market. "Foreclosures are on the rise"..."Families are losing their homes"..."Mortgage companies are going under"...
True, true and true.
But what about the buyers out there that are being able to move up to a new standard of living, simply because today's home values, combined with outstanding interest rates are allowing them to do so?
What about the people that never before would have considered keeping their existing home as a rental property, but that are now increasing their net worth and allowing someone else to make one of their house payments for them?
These aren't the stories that seem to be making the headlines.
And of course, how can we forget the current incentives for first time homebuyers? I wish someone would have given me an $8,000 credit when I bought my first home! Do the newscasters ever break in to tell us another first time home buyer just got $8 grand direct deposited into their checking account?
I don't think so!
What worries me the most about this is all of the people that cling to the nightly news to try and stay current with the local real estate market.
The local media is NOT current with the local real estate market. They never are!
By the time the media is telling you the market is better, it will mean the market has been better for quite a while already. Then people will frantically run out and try to buy something because the media has made them feel "safe" to do so, but by then it will be too late.
The best deals will be gone because the savvy buyers were out grabbing them left and right while everyone else trembled on their couches...wondering if things would ever get better.
Remember what Warren Buffett said..."Be greedy when others are fearful and fearful when others are greedy!"

Wow! I can't believe that Extreme Home Makeover is actually coming to Indianapolis and on top of that, the builder that is sponsoring the new home is one of my personal favorites, Estridge Homes.
We don't know anything about the chosen family yet, but the door knock will take place March 27th and you can find out more about the family then.
The work will be done March 27th - April 4th and both Skilled and Unskilled Volunteers are needed (I know which group I fall in to...)
But either way, I'm excited and can't wait to figure out a way to help in the project.
Want to join me? Please let me know . . . I'd be honored to work side by side with you!

We've Got Greenwood, Indiana Real Estate In The Bag!
Hello Active Rainers!
I'm not sure how you got here but I'm awfully glad you landed on our page. My guess is that you may have ended up here either because you have a real estate question you need answered or a problem you need solved. Either way, we hope you're able to find what you're looking for.
Our team is a wee itty bitty one, but two of the three of us used to be educators and so teaching and educating people seem to play a big role in how we do business. Our goal is not to twist your arm and pressure you into anything. Instead, our main objective is to educate you along the way and provide you with all the information you need so that you can make the decision that's best for you.
Sometimes that decision is to move forward and take advantage of this tremendous Buyer's Market we're in right now with reduced home prices all around us and super low interest rates. But other times, after looking at the numbers of your particular situation, the best decision might be just to stay put a little longer and ride out the storm. Either way is fine us. At the end of the day, our satisfaction comes from knowing we helped you do what's best for you at this particular time.
So thanks for dropping by. Look around, and most importantly, if you haven't found what you're looking for, please let us know. This site is for YOU! And if you don't tell us what's missing, we may never know.
Thanks again for visiting us...we hope you come back often!

Thanks so much for everything Shawna! We hope Cheryl is at least half as good as you and Sherry are--if so, we're sure we'll be taken care of by the best. God bless you and Sherry and take care.
Sincerely,
Miles and Shaune Langston - Indianapolis, Indiana
Carole and Butch Tanner - Greenwood, IN
Our experience has shown Shawna to be 100% genuine and trustworthy. She is without a doubt concerned for YOU, the homebuyer/seller. Shawna is so personable and easy to talk with. She is straightforward and realistic, yet willing to offer you your best shot on the sell of your house. Shawna is comfortable to be around. With her, you will feel the freedom to ask about insignificant things you might not understand in the world of real estate. We found her to be in our court and ready to go to bat for us. She will stay on top of things for you! Shawna is a realtor with CLASS! She's very poised, polished, and professional in her manners and dealing with people. Most of all Shawna loves Jesus!
Shawna makes things happen! My house was listed with another Realtor for 6 months with very little activity. After listing the house with Shawna, I had a buyer in less than a month! Thanks Shawna.
Darrell Taylor - Indianapolis, Indiana
Shawna, I liked you from the time I first met you, which is why since it was not possible for Valerie to help me I had NO problem going with you. I don't REALLY know you, however my gut told me you are one of the good people in life. I would like to think I have learned to recognize those who are the good ones...and I am sure you are.
Peter Rowley - Danville, Indiana
If anyone had told us we would sell our relatively brand new home in less than a month, and for the selling price we wanted, make an accepted offer on another home and close on it within months - well, we would have said "you're nuts!" But you know - you did that and much more. We were told exactly what to expect each step of the way which helped take the fear and anxiety out of all those steps that need to be taken. And most of all, we made a lasting friendship that we know will always exist. We would be proud to recommend you to anyone and everyone in need of a real estate professional. We know our friends and family would be treated professionally, honestly and with great expertise - not to mention a fabulous sense of humor that really came in handy from time to time!
John and Mary Jane Haecherl - Indianapolis, Indiana
We really enjoyed working with Shawna. The time she spent explaining all the details of selling and also purchasing a new home showed us her professionalism from the beginning. Shawna really showed her patience when it came to us! We actually started the process of finding "just the right home" a few years ago. Shawna was always ready and willing to work with us. When we found what we wanted, she went to work not only to get us into our new dream home, but also selling the home we were in within a very short time frame! Shawna is very talented and dedicated to her job.
Cliff and Charlene Rondeau - Indianapolis, Indiana
Shawna was extremely good to work with.
Michael Dearduff - Indianapolis, Indiana
When we put our house on the market there were several other houses in our neighborhood that were selling in the same price range as ours. It seemed as if those houses had been on the market forever, so we didn't expect our house to sell anytime soon. Shawna listed our house, had our open house, and sold our house all within 9 days!!! Not only did Shawna sell our house, she got us our full asking price!!!
Shawn and Tammy Armstrong - Greenwood, Indiana
We were very pleased with the work Shawna did for us. Her expertise and guidance in tough situations was a huge help! Because of her knowledge and professionalism we have referred her to many of our friends and family. She was a joy to work with!
Scott and Karen Crawford - Mooresville, Indiana
Shawna Ebersole was excellent throughout the entire process. I would certainly recommend her to my friends.
