Richest Communities in Central Ohio

Posted on 09/20/2011 | Leave a comment

American City Business Journals, a parent to Columbus Business First, compiled a list of the richest communities. In Ohio, New Albany came in 2nd, Powell is #11, and Dublin is #13. Indian Hill, a suburb of Cincinnati, was #1.

The measurement was the percentage of the population with household incomes over $150,000. Just under half of New Albany’s households have household incomes over that amount. Powell had 36% of households earning over $150,000 and Dublin had 35%.

2010 BIA Parade of Homes in New Albany – a Realtor’s® view

Posted on 07/28/2010 | Leave a comment

Yesterday morning was Realtor® Day at the 2010 BIA Parade of Homes at Ackerly Park in New Albany. Eight builders have homes in this year’s Parade. All of the homes have been built to conform with New Albany’s strict design style. This year’s builders are:

I was short on time but did manage to visit 7 of the 8 homes. I missed the Knight home and I didn’t visit the second floor of any of the homes. I did manage to take some photos for you.

Some of the differences that I noticed this year were the darker wall & wood colors and extensive use of decorating textures, mainly stone. Ceilings have become fancier and the flooring on the main level was mostly wood or very interesting tile. Countertops were either granite or the new concrete, which according to one of the builders, is similar in cost to granite. And yes, that IS a wood floor in that shower photo.

The Parade lasts until August 8. Visit BIAParade.com for more details.

Posted on 08/14/2009 | Leave a comment

Are you shopping for a home and wondering where the best opportunity is to find one in your price range? This chart shows where the current homes for sale are by price range by school district as of Aug 14, 2009.

Want to spend less than $200,000? Then the most options are in Westerville (160), Hilliard (137) or Delaware (109) school districts. If you are looking in the $200′s, then consider Olentangy (184), Westerville (122) or Hilliard (120) districts. Moving up the scale for homes priced between $300K-$500K, you might try Olentangy (293), Dublin (122), Westerville (92) or Hilliard (86). If you can move even further up the scale, Olentangy, Dublin or New Albany have the largest selection.

You can also use this chart to determine the price range you are apt to pay if you select first by the desired school district. For instance, if you want to buy a home in the Worthington school district, you should find a good selection for less than $500,000.
