Looking to Live in DeWitt

My name is Jane Mason and I have been with Ruhl&Ruhl Realtors for 25 plus years, servicing both DeWitt and the Quad Cities market, entirely with Ruhl & Ruhl. My company, like my community, stands strong and continually progresses to serve the public.

Due to my long history in Real Estate, I feel confident when I say the market continues to thrive in DeWitt! Properties that were sold last year during the 1st three quarters showed a 3% increase compared from 2018! The average sales price was 22% more than the previous year. In addition, our community continues to exemplify growth in all aspects of Real Estate, including residential, commercial and industrial!

It’s safe to say in the last 5 years we are seeing more young families move to and stay in DeWitt to live, raise their loved ones and provide a greater quality of life for themselves. This is partially due to the homes available in our community but also represents a true testimonial to our school, Central DeWitt CSD, as well as having a community well known for being a SAFE community. Hospital and medical services are also a big draw to retaining and growing our population. On the other end of the spectrum, an increasing demand for ranch style homes that offer “easy” living lifestyles for the more aged clientele. DeWitt has close proximity to the Quad Cities for those that want more social events but still desire the small-town living. It truly is a great example of having the best of both worlds.

DeWitt continues to prove how special it is by the people as well as the companies that chose to put down roots and make this their home each year.

DeWitt Delivers!

Kids
With its hometown values and progressive vision, DeWitt welcomes everyone, whether they are new to the community or well-known and deep-rooted in its history. Enterprising traditions and a unique heritage were just the start of this bustling town established almost 180 years ago.

Since then, DeWitt has welcomed thousands of families who have taken pride in the community and contributed to its vigorous growth. DeWitt is home to many who work in the metropolitan area, yet offers so much more that it could never be called a mere bedroom community. DeWitt is vibrant and thriving and home to more than 5,300 people who choose to live, work and play here. Community festivals, expansive recreational activities, prosperous industries, and a wide variety of local shops and restaurants provide opportunities for all ages.

DeWitt ranks 14th out of the best Iowa communities to live in, according to the 2015
Niche Rankings. At the DeWitt Chamber & Development Company (DCDC), we tend to agree. We want to spread the good news about DeWitt to those who already live here and to those who may choose to make it their home. Now is the time to celebrate all that DeWitt Delivers:

As you discover DeWitt, be encouraged to get involved, meet new people, and celebrate all that DeWitt offers. Take pride in what DeWitt Delivers!
