Joy riding through the Olentangy River Valley

October 11, 2008 · No Comments

Today was certainly a pretty fall day. The Murph and I were out and about late this afternoon, and with the fall foliage beginning to turn colors, I snapped some photos along the way. We were in the Powell, Dublin and Plain City areas, and although there are tons of homes in these suburbs, they are intersperced with natural areas.

The Murph got to see his first horses. For a change, he didn’t bark at them. Guess he thought “those dogs were just TOO BIG to mess with”. We went by a farm with a bunch of cows by the fence. Murph’s nose was in overdrive as he got a whiff of fresh manure.

Tomorrow is supposed to be an equally pretty day. I recommend taking advantage of it by getting out to enjoy the scenery. It’ll be gone too soon and it’s a long time till March!

Is that housing statistic really correct?

July 31, 2008 · 2 Comments

I received a call from a student doing a research project on “homes for sale around golf courses” in Ohio. She was using Real Living HER’s site to search by subdivision and she had some questions, which I tried to answer.

She had some questions regarding Wedgewood (Powell) and Tartan Fields (Dublin). As I was telling her how to search by subdivision on Real Living’s site, I also explained that she would have to sort through the data because there were other subdivisions starting with the Wedgewood name that weren’t located around the Wedgewood golf course, such as Wedgewood Park and Wedgewood Place. There is Tartan Fields which IS  around the golf course but Tartan West isn’t. Then in New Albany, the main country club has homes in the MLS system coded as New Albany CC or simply NACC. She probably doesn’t know this and thus, will miss all those homes in her statistics, because the computer will only search for whatever name she puts in the search box.

I’m not sure where she lives, or if she even lives in Ohio, but without knowing all the nuances of the area, her data could be pretty flawed. No doubt she’ll face those same issues with other golf course homes when she does this research for the whole state.

Later after our conversation ended, I couldn’t help but think about what she’ll do with this report. I’m sure she’ll think it’s a pretty accurate report and will probably present it as such. I hope she gets an “A”.

However, what she will be doing with her “findings” is similar to what news reporters or real estate ”experts” do with their research. To quote an NAR ad, “they don’t know what they don’t know“. They gather the data, extrapolate from it, make their analysis, then present the material as FACT.

Something similar is occurring with some dot.com search engines that are trying to compete for $$$$ by capitalizing on the real estate market. The main one is, of course, Realtor.com - the granddaddy formed by the NAR, where buyers can search for homes. Two new upstarts are attempting to take over the prime spot. They are Trulia and Zillow. All three are offering ”estimates” of a home’s value. Zillow was the first to come out with their “Zestimate” which was/is so flawed they were sued. Trulia and Realtor.com have followed suit with their own estimates.

They use computers, algorithms, and other geeky stuff, to determine “value”. Unfortunately, just as with the student’s attempt to gather data, computers don’t know the nuances of the local area. For instance, for my own home, Zillow used a recent sale of a home 6 miles away in another town, in another school district, that has 4BR’s up (mine is a 3BR, 1st floor MBR). No real estate agent would EVER use such a home as a comp when advising sellers on how to price their home.

Real estate agents have a saying that ALL REAL ESTATE IS LOCAL. That’s why we keep advising people to really question what the “experts” are quoting as fact, because we’re in the best position to know how WRONG the data really can be.

Year-end home prices for 5 years by central ohio school district

January 9, 2008 · No Comments

OK, here’s the last report to be updated with year-end data - I think!

5-Year Average Home Prices for central Ohio’s school districts - Year end 2007This report shows the 5-Year Average Home Price comparison by central Ohio school district. It should be the final “nail-in-the-coffin” that shows that central Ohio DOES NOT have severe falling prices like California and Florida. (click on the thumbnail to view full size)

Our growth has been quite conservative over the years. There was some minor decline in 2007, caused by all the media hype and higher than normal inventories. Builders have cut back the number of specs and we’re getting some of the resale inventory sold, so things are improving.

We’re probably not out of the woods yet, but as I noted in yesterday’s post, the market is looking like it might improve a little over last year. For the economy’s sake nationwide, let’s hope so.

The percent change of the 2007 average home price versus the 2003 average home price for each of the school districts, is as follows:

  • Buckeye Valley   +23%
  • Upper Arlington   +22%
  • Olentangy (Powell area)   +19%
  • Worthington   +17%
  • Dublin   +14%
  • Olentangy (Lewis Center area)   +12%
  • New Albany   +10%
  • Marysville   +8%
  • Gahanna   +7%
  • Hilliard   +7%
  • Delaware   +5%
  • Westerville   +4%
  • Big Walnut   (2%)

One thing to keep in mind is that these are the average SALE PRICES for the school district. It does not represent the price increase a given home might experience. It only represents the prices that buyers are paying for a home in that district.

Regarding Buckeye Valley, most likely the increase reflects the new development that is occurring there. The newer homes would be more upscale than the older rural homes that are prevalent in the district. Big Walnut’s data is apt to also be skewed as to whether a new development was selling heavily during one of the years.

Water Towers seem to be taking on a whole new look!

November 28, 2007 · 4 Comments

Copyrighted Summitview towerI’ve noticed that there’s a new trend in decorating water towers. Previously, they were painted blue-cream or blue-gray stripes to “blend” in with the sky … sort of.

The one on the left is on the south edge of the Powell area.

Copyrighted - twin towersThe two on the right are along I-270 between the Sawmill Rd exit and Rt 315 exit in Worthington. These towers have become a landmark of sorts. Whenever there is a fender bender on I-270, the reporters will say “near the twin towers” and everyone knows where the accident is.

Copyrighted - Delaware towerThen the City of Delaware installed a new tower near Rt 23 and Cheshire Rd. Gone were the stripes and in their place was “landscaping” with a monster billboard at the top (notice the homes to the right side at the bottom). The painting at the top seems to resemble the downtown city buildings along with a pacer horse to reflect the Little Brown Jug race that is held in September in Delaware.

Copyrighted Dublin water towerThere is another one outside Dublin, on the way to Plain City, that is decorated similar to the Delaware tower, but more muted. This tower has the green landscaping at the bottom but with various sports figures above the green. The sports figures represent the tower’s proximity to the big sports complex nearby, called Sports Ohio. At the very top are green shamrocks, representing Dublin’s Irish theme.

So how do you feel about this change in the way water towers are being decorated? Is it a nifty way for the suburbs to promote their city? Is it an improvement over bland stripes?

Here’s a great little Italian restaurant in Columbus

October 4, 2007 · 2 Comments

In another post I noted that my usual dining experience is take-out or fast food. While I certainly don’t intend to turn this blog into a “restaurant review”, I may occasionally mention places I like. Keep in mind that I am certainly not a connoisseur… I generally like ALL food which is another problem I have. ;-)

Yesterday some clients took me to a great Italian restaurant after signing closing papers. I don’t especially care for the thick, tomato pasty type of sauce, preferring instead a “lighter” sauce. This restaurant uses the type of sauce that I like - tasty but not overpowering.

The restaurant is Moretti’s on Sawmill Rd, opposite the Home Depot, just north of Don Scott airport. It’s in a small strip center that is easy to drive by but never really see.

I loved the salad and the dressing. We decided it must be a form of balsamic vinegar - really good! All the pasta is homemade. The entree prices range from $15-24. However, consider asking to split an entree since the portions are HUGE! My clients split a veal Parmesan and even when split, their portions were quite large. The veal was “real meat” not a processed patty, and it looked to be crispy on the outside. I ordered the ravioli appetizer and had to ask for a doggy bag to bring half of it home. I’ll bet their lasagne is great.

They do offer take-out so this place will definitely be on my list when I’m in the mood for a really good salad with a little loaf of bread. Yum-m-m. Copyright © 2007.

Muirfield Village in Dublin Ohio - the city that Jack built.

August 25, 2007 · No Comments

I confess! Muirfield Village is one of my favorite communities. First and foremost is that it is a controlled community - no worry about a big box store or yet another pharmacy going in on the corner. Plus, the deed restrictions are pretty strict on what can and cannot be done. This has protected the integrity of the huge development for 30-years.

Muirfield Village began as a dream of Jack Nicklaus, our local celebrity golfer. He grew up in Upper Arlington - home of the Golden Bears - hence, Jack’s nickname. He then attended OSU and the rest is history.

In the 70’s, Jack began development of land northwest of the heart of Dublin. At the time, there was much excitement about the pending community and golf courses. Some of our friends purchased lots intending to eventually build homes.

Just south of the entrance to the Village is a statue of Jack coaching a child on the “fine art” of swinging a golf club. I’ve tried for a few months to capture a photo of the statue as it’s in the median of the busy Muirfield Dr. Finally, one afternoon there were no cars in site, (a rarity) so I was able stop my car and take the photo.

The center of the Village is the Tournament golf course - Jack’s pride and joy. The Memorial Tournament is on the PGA Tour, and receives national TV exposure. The well-manicured course and the attached clubhouse are off-limits behind gates except for a chosen few. (A real estate agent driving a WEENR mobile is NOT one of the chosen few, so no photos are included in the slideshow below.)

There is another course called The Club at Muirfield Village that residents can join. The Club also offers fitness, pool, tennis and dining facilities. One must be a member to play, but others can play if invited by a member. I was fortunate to play the course a number of years ago thanks to the corporation I worked for at that time. Thank goodness it was a scramble so we didn’t really track our own score. My clubs haven’t been out of the basement for years, so I would never attempt it now.

There is a very wide variety of single-family home styles in The Village, so whether a buyer wants a traditional or an open floorplan, they are likley to find a home to suit them. There are also quite a few sections with patio homes (large homes, small yards) as well as numerous condo communities.

Naturally, prices increase according to their location if they back up to a fairway on one of the two golf courses. Generally, prices range from the high $200’s (condos) to well over $1 million for homes on the Tournament course. During Tournament week, many of the homes along the tournament course rent their homes out to players or corporations. The owners then stay in a hotel for the week.

The main north-south boulevard is Muirfield Dr.  Don’t speed on this road as the Dublin police monitor it closely and they are hard to see when they park next to one of the neighborhood signs. (no, I’ve not gotten a ticket!) The key east-west street is Memorial Dr. The entire Village is quite large being bounded by Brand Rd to the south, Dublin Rd to the east, Avery Rd to the west, and Glick Rd to the north. There is a small part of the Village that exists north of Glick as well. Most of the Village resides within Franklin County but some parts are in Delaware County.

If you think you would enjoy living in Muirfield and would like assistance finding a home there, give me a call.

Dublin, Ohio - a unique suburb with some interesting “sites”

August 23, 2007 · No Comments

Copyrighted downtown Dublin shopsDublin is a popular suburb in northwest Franklin county, serviced by the Dublin School District. The downtown consists of old-design buildings as shown in the left photo. Copyrighted Dublin downtown

Recently, a portion of the downtown was renovated with new buildings added to match the design of the original portion of the downtown. (right photo)

Copyrighted Dublin restaurantThere are some restaurants along the main road in the downtown area that offer sidewalk cafe style dining in nice weather.

At the southern part of the city in the midst of a large corporate park, is Field of corna Corn sculpture. The “ears” are 8-10ft high molds of concrete. It’s very striking and a must-see on any visitor’s tour, just for the curiosity factor.

Another interesting monument is north along Riverside Dr in a city park. This stone monument is to honor a tribal chief known as Chief Leatherlips. When the Muirfield development began back in the 70’s, the Chief’s Copyrighted leatherlips monumentburial grounds had to be moved. A very small plaque was installed on the east side of Riverside Dr.Well, after years of inclement weather during the Memorial Tournament, talk began that it was the Chief’s revenge for for Jack Nicklaus moving the Chief’s burial spot. So once again the Chief was moved, but this time a much large monument was built, and this one overlooks the Scioto River … facing west toward Muirfield. Apparently, the Chief still hasn’t been appeased, as Tournament week weather is still very iffy.Copyrighted Dublin cell tower

In the same park where the Chief “resides”, there is another strange site … really best viewed during the winter. In the center of the photo to the right is an “oddly” shaped tree. That is really a camouflaged cell tower to blend in with the trees along the Scioto River.

Now, in spite of the “oddities” mentioned above, Dublin really is a great little city … really … really it is!

Ballantrae continues Dublin’s Irish theme

August 22, 2007 · No Comments

Copyrighted Ballantrae Golf ClubBallantrae is a large housing development and golf course south of the western edge of Dublin. The grounds are designed to represent an Irish countryside with stone walls and sea grass lining the roadways and fairways. Large stones, reminiscent of Stonehenge front many of the individual developments.

Copyrighted dancing haresThe most memorable aspect of Ballantrae is the 15-foot sculpture of three dancing hares on a mound at the entrance. The hares were sculpted by Sophie Ryder, (London England). She was intrigued by the spring mating “dance” hares do in which they stand on their hind feet and ‘box’ each other. At the base of the statue is a wading pond with intermittent upward sprays of water that delight the children wading in the pool.

The entire development consists of 640 acres and over 1000 homes, made up of single-family, condominiums and patio/villa style homes.  Prices range from $300k and up. It is located within the city of Dublin and is serviced by the Hilliard school district. It is located off of Avery Rd, south of Rt 33 and the Perimeter Mall.

Condo Sales in central Ohio for the 2nd Quarter

August 4, 2007 · No Comments

You can live a carefree lifestyle for very reasonable cost in the north/northwest communities around Columbus. Or if you want total luxury, there are many options for you as well.

Copyrighted Dublin condoCondos such as the one to the left, generally cost below $160K depending on the number of bedrooms and the location of the complex. Some of these complexes offer garages, while some only have carports or street parking. Copyrighted Woodcutter Village

The Epcon Group offers many condo complexes all around the Columbus area. This particular one is one of four such complexes in the Powell area. Depending on the location and number of bedrooms, they generally are priced in the $200K-260K price range. A pool and a party house are included.

Copyrighted Vill at KinsaleThese two luxury complexes (below) are located in the Powell area with prices ranging from the high $300K’s to mid $400’s depending on the options and the view.The first complex is Village at Kinsale with many units having a view of the golf course.

Copyrighted Lakes at Golf VillageThe complex on the right is the Lakes at Golf Village. Both these luxury complexes are located at the intersection of Sawmill Parkway and Rutherford Rd.

Just as I did for single-family homes, I compiled the 2nd quarter sales results (Jan-Jun) for condos in six suburbs north and northwest of Columbus. One caveat to the data below regarding the higher priced units, is that the data does not include sales direct with the builder. It only includes sales recorded in the MLS system which is mostly resale homes. Since most of the upscale units are brand new, or too new to be on the resale market, they aren’t reflected truly in the data below.

Powell area:

·  Below $200K: 29 units were sold averaging $163K with 1457 sq ft.

·    $200K-$399K: 27 units were sold averaging $281K with 2116 sq ft.

2nd Qtr Home sales in Central Ohio comparison to 2006

July 31, 2007 · No Comments

I just completed a review of how the sales are doing for the 2nd Qtr period (Jan-Jun) versus last year for six suburbs that I work.

Central Ohio didn’t go through the double digit increase the past few years as did the East and West coasts and Florida. Our increases were moderate - just keeping up with inflation.

However, beginning last fall with all the media hype on the housing bubble for the coasts and Florida, buyers in our market began to pull back on their purchases even though interest rates and pricing were still positive. This softening of sales caused excess inventory not only for existing sales but also new builds. Growing foreclosure rates certainly didn’t help either.

Given those market conditions, sellers have had to reduce their pricing to get their home sold. So naturally, a review of sales this year vs last, shows some of that softening. The following six ‘burbs are listed in the order of their average selling price for 2007:Powell Ohio signs

Powell (43065 zip, Olentangy SD):

Average price is up 4% from $393K to $408K. The average size (sq ft) is up 3% from 2936 to 3024. The number of homes sold during the six months is down 9%, going from 226 down to 206.

Copyrighted Dublin downtownDublin (Dublin SD):

Average price is down 8% from $357K to $327K. The average size (sq ft) is down 4% from 2725 to 2623. The number of homes sold is down 2%, going from 411 down to 401.

Copyrighted-housing fieldLewis Center (43035 zip, Olentangy SD):

Average price is down 1% from $282K to $280K. The average size (sq ft) is down 1% from 2423 to 2399. The number of homes sold during the six months is down 21%, going from 214 down to 170.
