ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A HOUSE?

And then the second question should be ... are you looking for a good, clean, affordable, quality house?

My name is Joe Smelser and I am a landlord in Muncie. I have been in the rental business for over 29 years. I bought my first property with my mom in 1988. She and I spent countless hours cleaning, painting and repairing my first house.  I have always been good with my hands and was able to do a lot of the work myself.  I started to consider the possibility of becoming a landlord. The prospect of becoming a landlord was somewhat scary.  Who would I rent to? Could I make a living doing this?


I continued to buy properties in Muncie. I thought if I could rent my houses to Ball State students, I would have a shot at making this new venture work. My philosophy was and is that I would provide clean, affordable housing to the students.


I am a member of the Rental Property Association which sets high standards for their Member Landlords. I maintain all of my houses as if I were the resident. I am not an absentee landlord. I live near all of my houses, and pride myself in prompt courteous service should you have a problem. I also have professional, licensed plumbers, carpenters, and electrical service personnel that I contract with in the event those services are required.  


 I invite you to visit my blog for more information and photos of the houses I have available for rent.  

 

I have several options for housing near the BSU campus. Some houses have garages, some have hot tubs, and some allow pets. I also have options for how the utilities are paid. In some houses, I pay the utilities. This seems to be popular with students who are trying to live on a budget. This way, they know exactly what their rent and utilities will cost each month. 


 I currently have several houses for rent. These will be available for in  August for the 18-19 school year. 


• 614 W Main is a 6 bedroom 2 bath home with an attached garage. It also has a hot tub. All appliances are provided. Another bonus, all utilities are provided as well.

• 305 E Highland is a 6 bedroom 2 bath home also with a hot tub. All appliances are provided, and yard care is included in the rent. This house also includes all utilities in the rent. 

• 610 W Howard is a 3 bedroom 1 bath home with all appliances included. This houses is close to the bus service, IVY Tech and BSU. There are 2 options for the utilities, I can pay them or you can. 

• 1305 W Kilgore is a 3 bedroom 1 bath house close to the bus line, BSU, and Ball Hospital. Appliances are again included. 


All of these houses have central air, and in some we allow pets.
