This is Thanksgiving week. We often find that when family members come into town, if they are considering a move here to be closer to relatives, they make plans to view homes. Sometimes even local buyers plan to shop for their home this weekend when they have vacation days. Friday to Sunday can be “black” days for real estate as well, not just at the retail stores.
If you want to locate in Southern Delaware County, you have plenty of homes to view, no matter the price range. The only segment where there isn’t much is below $100,000 since there are only 7 homes in that range.
There are so many beautiful homes in Southern Delaware County, with many on large lots, wooded lots, on golf courses, whatever suits your fancy. The area includes the suburbs of Powell, Lewis Center and Galena, plus, several townships. Much of it is in Olentangy school district, but also includes portions of Big Walnut and Buckeye Valley districts.
Don’t forget that the $8000 First-Time Home Buyer and $6500 Homeowner Tax Credits are in effect. Plan for it to take a minimum of 45 days from the time you go into contract until closing can occur. (New government regulations have increased the timing.) Read more on the tax credits.
