Real Estate markets are unique, no two are alike. The same applies to residential properties. As a service to Indiana residents to help them better understand how their local housing market for existing single-family homes is performing, the Indiana Association of REALTORS®, (IAR), is posting Real Estate Market Reports on their www.IndianaIsHome.com web site. Mark Brown, Sr. VP Finance and Research for IAR in Indianapolis has spearheaded this valuable program.

Don Hall’s Riverside Boardwalk & Gazebo
The statue of Charles Louis Centlivre was originally located on the roof of the Centlivre Brewhouse on Spy Run. It was moved to Don Hall’s Gas House Restaurant in 1974. The Centlivre Brewery which was founded in 1862 changed its name to Old Crown Brewing Corporation in 1962 and ceased production in 1973. An advertisement from 1905 proclaimed that: “If you want to be well drink beer that is pure and healthful. Our Special Export Beer is absolutely pure, properly aged and fermented, and is made from the best materials money can buy. We spare neither care, cash nor brains in the brewing of this perfect beer, and the rich, inimitable flavor is the natural consequence. C L Centlivre Brewing…Made in Fort Wayne”.

Refinancing Your Home
Refinancing could be a viable option for you as a homeowner if you wish to lower monthly payments, pay off a home mortgage sooner, consolidate debts, or obtain equity for home improvements. Should you consider a refinancing option, make sure that you fully understand the advantages and disadvantages. You need to know the real costs of the loan (APR) and that the various fees associated with the loan are reasonable & competitive. Needless to say, pick your mortgage broker carefully.
