New construction vs. resale in Indiana
Indiana's 55+ inventory mixes long-established resale communities (Villas at Vale Park in Valparaiso, built starting 2009; White Oak Farms in Indianapolis, built 2003-2006; Stoney Meadow in Avon, built 2006-2020) with genuinely active new construction across the Indianapolis metro specifically. PulteGroup's Del Webb division has been especially active in 2024-2025, opening Sagebriar (Greenwood) and Finch Creek (Noblesville) with grand openings in 2025 alongside the more established Britton Falls (Fishers, construction began 2006), Kimblewick (Westfield, groundbreaking 2020), and Vandalia (Plainfield). Lennar's Osborne Trails (Westfield, opened 2020, 792 homes -- the largest single Lennar-built community in the state) and Easton (Avon, part of the larger Easton Grey master plan) represent the state's other major national-builder new-construction presence, alongside Beazer Homes' Gatherings at Aurora (McCordsville, 170 solar-ready homes) and D.R. Horton's Village at New Bethel (Indianapolis) and Regency Reserve (Avon). Epcon Communities' 'Courtyards' brand is active in both the Indianapolis metro (Carmel, Westfield, Brownsburg, Zionsville) and Northwest Indiana (Valparaiso, where The Courtyards at The Brooks was still in Phase 1 reservations as of the last update). Fischer Homes, a major Cincinnati-headquartered builder, has a confirmed named Indiana flagship: The Enclave at Lyster Lane in Indianapolis (69 homes). Hickory Trace Townhouse Condominiums (Murphy Homes) in Evansville is very recent new construction (built 2024-2025).
Taxes and ownership in Indiana
Indiana has its own state-statute codification of the federal HOPA 80%-occupancy exemption test, a more direct legislative wrinkle than Ohio's administrative-code-only equivalent. Indiana Code section 22-9.5-3-4, part of the Indiana Civil Rights Law (Indiana Code Article 22-9.5, enforced by the Indiana Civil Rights Commission), directly defines 'housing for older persons' in state statute as housing that is either (1) specifically designed and operated to assist elderly persons under a federal or state program, (2) intended for and solely occupied by persons 62 or older, or (3) intended and operated for occupancy by persons 55 or older where at least 80 percent of occupied units have at least one resident 55+ and the community publishes and adheres to policies demonstrating that intent -- essentially the same substantive test as federal HOPA, but codified directly into Indiana's own civil-rights statute rather than left to federal law alone or to administrative code. This finding is based on search-result snippets and has not been independently verified against the full statutory text or a primary legal database; it should be confirmed before being relied upon. Buyers should also note that a small share of Indiana's confirmed 55+ inventory, concentrated in the Northwest Indiana cluster specifically (Ingram Manor in Portage and Lakeside Community in Rensselaer), is land-lease manufactured housing, where the home itself is purchased but the underlying land is leased from the community operator for a separate monthly lot rent -- a materially different ownership structure than the deeded, fee-simple HOA/condo ownership that predominates in Indiana's other clusters. Indiana's dense network of not-for-profit CCRC/Life Plan Community operators (BHI Senior Living, Otterbein SeniorLife, Greencroft Goshen, and Trinity Health Senior Communities) typically operates under entrance-fee and continuing-care-contract structures materially different from the for-sale HOA/condo communities this directory otherwise covers -- one Indiana example, Prairie Landing by the Towne House in Fort Wayne, self-brands directly as a '55+ Active Adult Community' despite being a confirmed entrance-fee CCRC with a $417,600 entrance fee, a pattern production batches should watch for specifically when a community's marketing tone is otherwise indistinguishable from a genuine for-sale HOA community.
