Mount Vernon Ohio Water Park

Saturday, April 9, 2011
by Sam Miller

 

Mount Vernon Ohio Water Park photo by Sam Miller

The Hiawatha Water Park and Pools in Mount Vernon, Ohio is a very special place and a proud accomplishment of our community.  When I was opening my mail today I opened up a new brochure with the latest schedule and pricing for the Hiawatha Water Park and Pools.  The basic schedule highlights opening in June through August with hours ranging from 12 noon to 7:45 p.m.  There is a little disclaimer on the closing time which says "Manager will determine pool closure due to inclement weather" which I am sure is for safety purposes due to rain and storm conditions.  This year they are once again offering season pass options and I have scanned their brochure and have included the actual 2017 rates and I have featured them at the very bottom of this page for you.

The embedded video below is a quick and fun look at the Hiawatha Water Park and Pools.  I am often asked how I was able to keep the video camera from getting wet while taking a wild ride down the water slide.  The trick was to enclose the video camera inside a ziplock plastic bag and hold the clear plastic bag tightly over the lens to eliminate a distorted video image. 

  

There are special pricing brackets for memberships purchased before May 1st, 2017!

A Household Membership for Mount Vernon Residents is $180.00 and for Non-Residents, $200.00

Knox County Ohio Home Sales Report

Friday, April 8, 2011
by Sam Miller

The 1st quarter home sales statistics for the Knox County Ohio MLS are in and 55 home successfully sold and closed according to the local MLS.  During the exact same period in 2010 there were 70 homes that successfully sold.  Something to remember about 2010 is that the housing market last year was heavily driven by the government economic stimulus and the home buyer tax credit.  During the 1st quarter of 2011 the Knox County Ohio didn't experience any benefits from incentives yet our housing market was able to maintain over 78% of the total home sales of the prior year.  These home sales figures combined with a longer than normal snow and winter season are actually positive indicators that our local housing market may be headed to a partial recovery.  

As of today there are 405 residential homes for sale within Knox County Ohio according to the Knox County MLS.  This is a very interesting number because the average listing price of these homes is $156,705 yet the average sales price so far this year is only $100,158.  The lower than normal average sales price in Knox County Ohio is partially due to the amount of bank owned home sales that have already sold and closed this year.  Something that many people won't immediately realize is that the average home value HASN'T dropped to $100,158 in Knox County Ohio.  The average sales price of homes that SOLD during the first quarter is $100,158 and that is a big difference than saying the average price of Knox County Ohio homes is $100,158.  The reality is that so far this year the overall market values of Knox County Ohio homes really haven't changed all that much.  

If you're interested in making a move in 2011 I want you to know that all the members of the The Sam Miller Team can help you.  We have an automated system that integrates our MLS system into an html email link which enables you to receive all the newest Knox County Ohio homes and listing updates as they are entered into our Knox County MLS system.  Our system delivers listings so fast that in many cases you will be notified before other competing real estate agents even know these homes are for sale.  If you are tired of missing out on the best deals and you aren't already working with a real estate agent just take a minute and create your FREE personalized home search profile and the Knox County Ohio real estate listings will be sent directly to your email inbox compliments of The Sam Miller Team.

Centerburg, Ohio: The Heart of Ohio

Monday, April 4, 2011
by Sam Miller

Centerburg, OhioLocated at the heart of Ohio, Centerburg is a small farming town twenty to thirty minutes from the bustle of the city. A pastoral setting, Centerburg takes pride in community and offers a surprising variety of recreational activities to its residents. Students at Centerburg School District have a wide array of extra-curricular activities to choose from, including a title-winning robotics team: “The Red Plague.”

In the spring, you’ll find neighbors hoeing and planting in the Community Garden at the intersection of W. Houck and N. Clayton, or playing a round of disc golf on the course at the new high school building. Residents have year-round access to cardio equipment and certified fitness experts at the Centerburg Fitness Center.

Festivals, such as the Heart of Ohio USA Days, bring rides and fair booths to the streets of Centerburg in the summer months. The annual Old Time Farming Festival, held in Memorial Park, attracts farm historians and tractor enthusiasts in a celebration of a by-gone era with contests and games for the whole family. Joggers, bikers, and dog-walkers enjoy a quiet commute along the Heart of Ohio path; part of the Ohio-to-Erie trail system that leads all the way to Cleveland.

Just thirty minutes from Polaris Fashion Place, thirty minutes from beautiful Alum Creek State Park, and less than an hour from Snow Trails ski resort, Centerburg really is at the center of it all.

If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in 2011, give us a call at (740) 397-7800 or send us an email to explore your options and to find out when is the best time for you to make a move.

Real Estate Agent to Agent Referrals

Monday, April 4, 2011
by Sam Miller

There are many real estate referral and agent referral website directories online but so many of them require that you pay an annual fee or a large referral fee for simply giving you access to their list of agents.  The entire idea of agent to agent referrals has always excited me so I thought today would be a great day to offer a free place for agents to list their service areas, websites and contact information for FREE.  Here's what we need you to include in the comments section below:

  • Your primary service area and please also list your county and state
  • Your name / team name and your website address including http://www.
  • Your contact information including company name, phone, email address
Here is an example:

  • Service Areas:  Mount Vernon, Ohio and Apple Valley Lake in Knox County Ohio
  • Sam Miller Real Estate Team  http://www.knoxcountyohio.com
  • Office (740) 397-7800 or 1-800-282-9096, samsells@sammiller.com
Feel free to share this link with your real estate friends and you are welcome to copy and paste the link onto your Facebook page.  Let's do some agent to agent referral business together.
