Local Home Sales Continue to Increase

November housing  market numbers are just in for Central Indiana, courtesy of MIBOR.

  • Unlike the nation as a whole, new listings are slowly increasing, +4% from last 2017.
  • Sales are up as well, 2% Y-o-Y, but in a slowing pattern.
  • Prices continue to rise, with median sales price now $179,000.  Up 9% from a year ago.
  • Sellers are getting 95% of their original asking price. (Which is to say it’s still a seller’s market but not like last spring.)
  • Available inventory remains very tight, with 7% fewer houses available for each buyer to choose from.
