We hope back-to-school went smoothly, if you have kiddos in school. It always seems like a bitter-sweet time for both kiddos and parents, who are ready to get back to their school-year schedules. A break, however is always nice. We hope you have settled back into a routine and school is going well.
Steve & Brigid continue to keep busy chasing Ana and Tali around. Ana is back practicing at Indianapolis Children's choir twice/week, school choir once/week and band every day. Needless to say, she is immersed in music! Tali is still our little gymnast and practices 4 hours/week. She absolutely loves every minute of it!
Mary Anne & Jack are on a vacation now and will be seeing Jack's brother who lives in North Carolina. They always enjoy spending time with him. In October, Steve's family and Jack & Mary Anne will be taking their annual family trip and this year are going to Disney World for the week. They are super-excited and Steve & Brigid are anxious to attend the Behind The Magic tour at Disney, which is an all-day behind the scenes tour. Please let Steve know if you have done this before and what your experience was like.
The real estate market has been on FIRE this fall!!! It is significantly busier than usual, but many houses are selling in hours with multiple offers. There are still some areas and price ranges where houses are much slower to sell, of course.
Thank you to Jamie Ellis, Jason Patch and Brett Breedlove for hosting us at Katz Sapper Miller this week to give a presentation on Everything You Wanted to Know about Real Estate, But Were Afraid to Ask. We had a great group and a lot of fun!! If your company would like to schedule a lunch and learn, please give us a call. We would be happy to talk on myriad real estate topics.
We hope to see you tomorrow at Matt The Miller's for our monthly Happy Hour from 5-6:30PM. Please stop by for a drink and some yummy appetizers. We will have a big group this month. Also, don't forget to mark your calendars for our VIP Client Appreciation Movie on December 3rd. We would love to pack the house again. Look for your invitation in the coming weeks.
