The Scoop on Buying a Second Home in 2009 at Heritage Lake Indiana

01.22.09

2009-A new beginning in many ways, historically with a new American President and perhaps for you as well as with the purchase of a vacation home at Heritage Lake.  According to an article at RIS Media in a Commentary by Curtis Seltzer on January 19, 2009 ”Vacation-home prices have also held up better than metropolitan housing, which dropped 20% in the 20 largest metropolitan areas tracked by the S&P/Case-Shiller composite house price index in the 18 months following a mid-2006 high.”  Another interesting statement regarding second homes was offered in the same article which states: “The best buys will be in nice places that have yet to be turned into trendy destinations. Look for small towns that are still about one-third pickup trucks and have no yak-butter crepe place.”  Now that description sounds uncannily like Heritage Lake Indiana!  Our private lakefront paradise is rural and out of the way, yet you can get to downtown Indy in and hour and Greencastle, the home of Depauw University, in 20 minutes.  The location to a major growing metropolitan area is a very important factor in the future of Heritage Lake.  The current prices are variable on waterfront homes from $189,900 to $529,900 which means they are still much more affordable than many Indiana lakes.  There are some lovely lakefront lots available as well.  The lake has maintained a quaint lakeside atmosphere but has every modern convenience including a marina with gas at the water’s edge, boat launch, 3 sandy beaches and and 2 clubhouses with tennis and a sports complex.  You’ll enjoy the lakeside evening concerts in the summer and the professional fireworks over the water for the 4th of July.  Heritage Lake can be your summer home destination and you can be ready for spring if you start looking now!  Also, the lake is private for property owners and their guests so everyone has great pride in maintaining our lakefront paradise!
