Local Brew Logo
​

Good morning, Clermont County. A staggering $1.225 million just changed hands for a single Symmes Township home, highlighting the robust real estate market buzzing across our region. This seven-figure transaction wasn't alone – property transfers are lighting up the records from Hamilton County to Northern Kentucky, with one Cincinnati Business District property commanding an eye-popping $20 million. These sales offer a fascinating window into our area's economic vitality, tracking everything from luxury estates to starter homes.

Meanwhile, history meets modern entertainment as the Warren County Fair celebrates its remarkable 175th anniversary this week in Lebanon. The milestone event delivers six days of agricultural tradition alongside demolition derbies and nightly live music. And in a cautionary tale for our region's dining scene, Taste of Belgium founder Jean-Francois Flechet is closing multiple locations, signaling troubling aftershocks from the pandemic that continue to challenge the restaurant renaissance that once transformed Cincinnati's empty streets into culinary destinations.
