12/19/2025
Every week, I take a moment to note what’s going right -in our community. Our economy, and our housing market. Here’s this week’s Weekly Win Report
1. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to The Community Impact Initiative
This year, the Impact Council invested $150,000 in 36 local projects across 11 counties in , strengthening communities, attracting residents, and supporting local economic growth.
2. Major park improvements continuing citywide
Indy Parks continues its broad revitalization efforts — with over $150M in park improvement projects and dozens of parks slated for enhancements in 2026. These investments support recreation, health, and neighborhood vibrancy. (Indy Parks & Recreation)
3. Franklin Township Community Park renovation opens
The Franklin Township Community Park has reopened after a significant renovation, adding modern playgrounds, pickleball/basketball courts, and walking trails — boosting quality of life and connecting residents. (INDYtoday)
4. Housing market inventory gives buyers “more” leverage...
As of 12/18/2025 – 7,171 properties are for sale in – with inventory up, buyers are seeing some leverage within the market (that being said, we’re still seeing multiple offers in rare cases of homes with perfect condition and pricing) and “more” is a relative term 😉.
5. and community partners released updated 2025 data showing a reduction in homicides and an increase in clearance rates, a sign of progress in public safety efforts in Indianapolis. (WRTV Indianapolis)
6. CONGRATULATIONS to The REALTOR Foundation of MIBOR. In 2025, the REALTOR Foundation awarded 32 grants to nonprofit organizations serving Central Indiana. These funds focus primarily on housing stability and ending homelessness in our community. Total dollars granted in 2025: $302,775!!!! (ps. This was a difficult year for Realtors in Central Indiana and they still showed up!!!!)
7. New HVAC Partnership– thanks to recent clients of mine, I have found a new referral partner when it comes to HVAC work – He shares similar beliefs about how he works, transparency in pricing, and “taking care of the customer” and I am grateful for this new connection.
8. A recent client of mine saved thousands of dollars and an unnecessary torn up front yard by simply getting the right contractor (shout out Tammy and R&S Sewer) to diagnose a “problem” – a gentle reminder to always CALL ME FIRST 😉.
9. “The best way to predict the future is to create it.” – Peter Drucker
10. Optimism IS a strategy. If you ever want to talk about the Central Indiana market, I’m always happy to help.
