Apple Valley Lake East Boat Launch

Sunday, May 3, 2009
by Sam Miller

The boating season at Apple Valley is in full swing with dozens of boats already on the water.  During the month of May there will be an increase of lake activity with boats and personal water crafts making their way to the water.  The boat launch near Sutton Beach is the closest boat launch near the front entrance and it is generally more busy.  You may not be aware but there are two more locations at the Apple Valley lake where you can launch your boat.  

When you enter Apple Valley at the front entrance just make a right onto Apple Valley Drive and pass the camp ground and in less than a minute you will approach the Apple Valley east boat launch.  At the east launch there are two concrete launch pads and tie areas and an impressive amount of trailer parking area.  This is also a great place to fish along the Apple Valley lake shore.  If you walk directly across the street there is a lake overflow area that is much more shallow than the lake and you are almost guaranteed to experience some fish activity.

Apple Valley Ohio Home Sale Report March 2009

Thursday, April 16, 2009
by Sam Miller

There were 8 residential home sales at the Apple Valley Lake that were reported to the The Knox County Board of Realtors and the Knox County MLS during the month of March 2009.  The total combined sales volume for Apple Valley homes in March was $1,249,350 with a total of 8 home sales.  The average sales price for a home sold in Apple Valley in March was $156,168.  The lowest price Apple Valley home that sold in March was sold for $64,100 while the most expensive home that sold during the same month sold for $429,000.

In March there were 29 Apple Valley homes that were listed for sale and added to the Knox County MLS inventory.  The total combined dollar volume of ththese new listings was $4,959,454 with an average listing price of $171,015.  There are currently 100 residential homes listed for sale according to the Knox County MLS.  Based on the number of homes that sold at the Apple Valley Lake Community this past March there is slightly more than a 12 month inventory of listings currently on the market.  The sales activity in Apple Valley often doubles and triples once the lake season begins.

IMPORTANT:  The sales reported during the colder months in Apple Valley (the off season) are rarely worth reporting because Apple Valley is a lake resort style community which doesn't become fully active until we experience the sunnier and warmer weather traditionally associated with boating and swimming.

Apple Valley Lake Housing Market Sales Update for August 2008

Monday, September 8, 2008
by Sam Miller

The Apple Valley Lake Community in Howard Ohio saw $1,597,400 worth of homes successfully sell and close during the month August according to the Knox County Board of Realtors.  There were 8 homes that sold in August and with one of the highest average sales prices that we have seen in many years of $199,675.  This higher than normal average sales price is due to 3 waterfront homes selling from $295,000, $310,000 and $372,000.  These figures adjusted the average numbers upward for August.  Out of the 8 homes that sold by the entire Knox County Board of Realtors I personally sold 3 of these Apple Valley homes which accounted for 37.5% of the total sales.  The Apple Valley lakefront, waterfront and Apple Valley lakeview homes are still very much in demand if they are priced properly.

Apple Valley Lake Resort Market Report of SOLD Homes

Wednesday, August 13, 2008
by Sam Miller

The real estate sales activity at Apple Valley so far this year has been busy with showings, available listings and home sales.  Since the first day of 2008 there have already been 67 Apple Valley homes that have sold so far this year.  The 2008 average sales price for an Apple Valley home in 2008 is $149,597 with the lowest price home selling for $65,000 and the highest sales price for an Apple Valley Waterfront Home bringing $509,500.  Based on these numbers it is easy to see that Apple Valley Real Estate is doing quite well.

There are currently 104 Apple Valley Homes actively listed for sale with an average listing price of $209,917.  This average listing price is slightly higher than in years past due to an increase in the number of homes that are listed for sale that are priced over $300,000.  As I write this there are currently 19 Apple Valley homes listed for sale that are priced between $304,900 to $879,900.  When you add a home at $879,900 it tends to adjust the averages upward especially since $879,900 is nearly 6 times the area's average sales price.

Based on the year to date home sales in Apple Valley it is safe to say that there will be more than 100 homes sales at the Apple Valley Lake in 2008.  If you are interested in viewing available Apple Valley Homes click here for details, photos and virtual tours of our active Apple Valley Homes For Sale.

Search Google with Your Cell Phone By Text Messaging 466453

Tuesday, March 11, 2008
by Sam Miller

Have you ever needed a quick phone number and didn't want to take the time to boot up your computer and search Google and you wanted to avoid the high charge for directory assistance or 411 connect?   Have you ever wanted the phone numbers for the local movie theatres or pizza places near you and you don't have anything to write the numbers down on?  There is a quick and easy way to get the information you want within 60 seconds and most of you can get the information quick and cheap with your cell phone and your text message feature. 

Send a text message to this number:  466453 (I know this is a partial number but trust me it will work).  Now type in what you are searching for and for your example use the following as a test:  Plumber 43050 (of you can type in Plumber XXXX (enter your zip code where my x's are)  Now simply press send and sit tight and within 60 seconds you will get a text message with the information.  This works for client names, addresses and phone numbers and it works for just about anything you are searching.  If you want another good test why not search your name or your spouses name and your zip code? 

There are so many potential uses for this service and once you play with it a bit you will quickly see the many possibilities.  Your family will love it, your past clients will love it, your team will love it, I have a feeling that pretty much anyone with a cell phone will find a use for it at some point.  The key to remember is that if you do not have a text messaging account you will get charged a non contract text message rate.  For those of us with text messages contracts and especially those of us who have unlimited text messaging this is a feature that we will be using on a very regular basis.  Google has done it again and the speed of this service is amazing.
