Baby Boomers are Buying Real Estate

Posted to Community Attractions, Jeremy Page

A recent national survey of 1300 real estate agents and broker found that Baby Boomers are buying real estate. Of the 1300 surveyed, 87% of them have Baby Boomer clients who already own or are looking to purchase investment properties. Baby Boomers are actively buying retirement homes, investment properties or downsizing. Many of them are financially stable and are taking advantage of the lower pricing on homes. I personally have worked with several baby boomers recently who have been buying investment properties. They have told me that they are buying rentals now because their return on investment is better on real estate than it is anywhere else.

Are you considering purchasing a rental property or other investment property? Give me a call/text at 317-413-5311 or email me at jpage@callcarpenter.com for more information on the houses available here in the Central Indiana area.

Indiana State Fair - Year of the Pig

Posted to Community Attractions

In case you didn’t know, the Indiana State Fair is going on NOW until Aug 22 and this year is the Year of the Pig. The featured fair food is the “Garbage Burger” created by Shoup’s Country Foods, started my late uncle Tom Shoup and currently ran by his two daughters Cindy Shoup Cacy and Amy Shoup Mennen, located in Frankfort, Indiana. The Garbage Burger consists of a Hog-Burger (similar to a hamburger, but with ground pork) w/ pulled pork bar-b-q on top. I love both the hog burger and a pulled pork sandwich BUT the combo??? IS AMAZING!!

The State Fair has something for everyone. I have been twice already—there is a fascinating exhibit about Indiana ties to Japan, especially in the Automotive Arena—there are at least 3 Japanese Auto manufacturing plants located in Indiana. I saw Indiana’s largest Pig, a veterinarian surgery, a replica of one of Indiana’s first Pharmacy’s, and even a couple of Mullet Hairstyles.

As your Preferred Realtor, I like to share the things I love about Boone County and the Indy Metro Area… the State Fair is high on my list — it’s a MUST attend every year!!
