In this episode of the Indiana Pioneer Agronomy Podcast, hosts Carl Joern, Brian Shrader and Ben Jacob discuss how harvest is progressing statewide under extremely dry conditions, which have helped keep things moving but pose safety risks for farmers. Agronomists discuss their hybrid and soybean “draft picks” from earlier in the season, highlighting which are outperforming in yield. Growers have raised concerns about crops turning black, largely due to hot, dry weather and disease pressure. There's also discussion on the breakdown of stover post-harvest. Reports from Pioneer test plots show several hybrids exceeding 300 bushels per acre, with Z-series soybeans also achieving strong yields.For more information on stand evaluation, visit:  https://www.pioneer.com/us/yield-results.html

Host Chris Jennings is joined by Jay Anglin, Great Lakes Region migration editor for ducks.org, and the two discuss the impacts of the most recent winter storm which barreled into the Great Lakes last week. As the season's closed across many Great Lakes states, the region remained very mild, leaving ducks and geese to hold tight. The recent winter storm sent them packing from Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, northern Indiana and Illinois. With a quick thaw in the short-term forecast, hunters who hunt in areas where the seasons are still open, may be in for a strong finish.www.ducks.org/DUPodcast

In today’s market update, I’ll go over what happened in the first quarter of 2018 and how our current market compares to the first quarter of 2017. Today, I want to take a couple minutes to give you an update on the first quarter of 2018.  Homes were selling at a good pace, with a little over 900 homes sold during the first quarter here in Southwest Indiana. However, that is down 8% compared to the first quarter of 2017, where we had about 1,000 home sales. That said, I believe the reason for that is the lack of inventory in our market. There just aren’t enough homes for sale. This is also reflected in home prices. In the first quarter of 2018, the average sales price was a little over $150,000 compared to $144,000 in 2017, so homes escalated in price by about 4%, which is kind of the norm.  The average days on market right now is around 65 days, so that’s right in line with the first quarter of 2017. Overall, there are no huge shakeups when you compare the first quarter of 2017 to the first quarter of 2018. “The biggest challenge for the 2018 real estate market is low inventory.” 2017 was one of the strongest years in real estate that we’ve had in a while, and it looks like 2018 is on pace to follow suit.  The biggest problem this year is the number of homes on the market. We had between three and four months of inventory for most of 2017, which is a strong seller’s market. Anything under six months is a balanced market, and anything over six months is a buyer’s market. However, now we have less than two months of homes on the market.   We need more homes to come on the market. If you are curious about what your home is worth or are thinking of making a move, let us know. We would be happy to talk about what you can expect in the market as a seller.  If you have any other real estate questions or topics you would like to see covered in our next video, just give us a call or send us an email. We would be happy to help you!

Today I want to talk with you real quick about the timeline of purchasing or selling a home. When you’re getting ready to list your home on the market for sale, it’s best to get the ball rolling early on in the process. We’d love to come out and give you some tips on what will help it sell for more. Once it’s ready, we can go over comparable homes and find a good listing price for your home. Once we have the home listed, the market average for Southwest Indiana was 62 days in 2017. Our team actually averaged 47 days. Once the home goes pending, it usually takes 30 to 40 days for the transaction to close. Sometimes we can negotiate possession of the property for up to 30 days after closing if you need it. “Once the home goes pending, it takes 30 to 40 days to close.” If you’re looking to buy, you should come in and meet with one of our buyer specialists. It will take a week or two to find something, then another 30 to 40 days to close. We typically tell homebuyers that they really need to start looking about 90 days before they truly need to be in the home. If you’re in a lease and you have to be out in 90 days, it’s time to get the ball rolling. If you have any questions about the timeline or anything else related to real estate, give us a call or send us an email. We would love to hear from you.

Operation: Job Ready Veterans™ (OJRV) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preparing veterans, service members and military families for successful employment by connecting them with employers that seek top quality, well-trained employees. We make a personal connection and assist veterans of all eras and ability levels with their employment and career goals. OJRV was founded in 2007 as the Crane Learning and Employment Center for Veterans with Disabilities – with a focus on helping veterans find employment at Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division, located in Southwest Indiana. As the organization grew to serve veterans in Central Indiana, the group changed its name to the Career Learning and Employment Center for Veterans (CLEC). CLEC is a 501(c)3 organization. In 2012, the organization opened the program to all veterans and moved its headquarters to Indianapolis. In 2013, CLEC adopted the d/b/a, Operation: Job Ready Veterans, to more clearly communicate our mission. Special Guests: Mike Espinda and Tom Reust.

How does housing inventory affect your home’s value? With fewer homes on the market, that affects the demand for those homes, which in turn drives up housing prices. Over the last few years, we’ve seen a real shortage of homes. Right now, throughout Southwest Indiana, we have just under a three-month supply of homes. In case you don’t know, the typical market supply is right around six months. Anything under that mark would be considered a strong seller’s market. Anything above would be considered a strong buyer’s market. “Your home might be worth more than you think.” With our 2.8-month supply of homes, there’s a strong need for additional homes to hit the market. Since there is a huge shortage of available homes, your home might be worth more than what you think. If you’re looking to get an updated value of what your home may be worth, you’re thinking of refinancing your home, or you plan on selling it soon, give me a call so I can help you with that. If you have any other questions about our market or have any other real estate topics you’d like me to address, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’d be happy to help you.
