Interesting. There are pockets of stagnation in employment in our country that ultimately lead to stagnation of the real estate indutry in the same areas. Viable employment is the key to almost any viable real estate market. We see it all the time.
Good post. Thanks.
Dan,
Thanks for the post. Sounds like an opportunity for the right broker!
Hi Dan!
Always nice to see a familiar agent on the Rain... =)
Enjoyed your post...You would think that community would be a viable commuter option for Indianapolis with it's location, if they could manage to market those listings closer in to the city! Hope those agents wake up and smell the coffee soon, and help those folks turn their market around...

Dan -
Ive been to Anderson on sales calls to agents (for online marketing) and been met with blank stares. There must be a heck of a newspaper readership there, as that is how they were investing in marketing.
PS isnt there a horse race track in anderson....I believe I did my part to add money to the local economy :(
Lenn,
The sad thing for this community is there is actually lots of employment very nearby (Indianapolis) but it seems as though the residents continue to wait for General Motors to come back to town which will never happen and the leadership continues to seek out manufacturing businesses rather than other types of industry.
Yes William, I think the right broker could make out very well.
Good to see you on the rain too Heather.
Chris,
I got those same blank stares when I was talking about the different marketing tools I use. It is like they have been living under a rock. It really is a shame because the city is in a very good location and has really great potential. I too have visited the horse track and added to the local economy.
