Today Case Western Reserve University students and Noble Neighbors met at the Police Academy classroom to begin our Noble area property survey portion of the Noble Neighborhood Community Assessment project. (Read more details about the project in the 12/9/2014 blog post below.) A small army of volunteers and students fanned out across the area with maps and data entry sheets to record each property's use, occupancy and condition.
When the teams returned, the most common comment from a Noble Neighbor was, "Our homes really are in good condition. We rated all the houses on the streets we surveyed with Good or Superior!" Indeed we're finding that we have a neighborhood full of structurally sound homes. Only cosmetic improvements were needed on the Good homes to raise their curb appeal to Superior.
Favorite comment of the day by a CWRU student: "When I graduate I want to buy a home in this area, and I know exactly which one I want!" So, if you're a home buyer, the secret is about to get out. Now is the time to buy a terrific home at a very affordable price. Once the word gets out, these properties are going to be hot, hot, hot! We're on a roll - we've got momentum - we're a neighborhood that works together to help everyone thrive.
Now, if we can get permission to slide down the fireman's poles for next Saturday's session...
