Mooresville Real Estate Market Shows Healthy Signs in October, 2012

The Mooresville real estate market brought showed some very healthy signs in October, 2012. Normally, October is the time of year when colder temperatures bring with them an overall slowing of activity. But not this time. Versus the previous month, sales climbed 33.3 percent, reaching a total of 28 when all was said and done. But even more encouraging is the fact that this represents a 40-percent improvement versus this same time 1 year ago. Moreover, from August through October of this year, on average, a total of 26 closings took place each month, or 30 percent more, compared to this same quarter 1 year ago.

Total pending sales also breathed new life into the Mooresville market as the most recent total of 25 pending transactions rose 19 percent over the previous month. But most impressive is the fact that this represents a huge 66.7-percent increase over this same month in 2011. In yet another comparison, there were 24 pending sales logged each month, on average, during the months of August, September and October of this year, 33.3 percent more, compared to this same quarter last year.

And, from August through October of this year, there were, on average, 146 homes on the market each month, or 14.1 percent fewer, compared to this same 3-month period 1 year ago.

Martinsville Home Sales Rise 48 Percent in October, 2012

The Martinsville real estate market made significant strides in October, 2012. What was especially surprising about the latest improvements is that they come at a time of year that is normally associated with a seasonally-induced slow-down in market activity. Starting with sales, a total of 37 closings took place in October, up 48 percent versus the previous month’s total of 25. Versus this same month last year, sales were up 27.6 percent. Comparing the average number of monthly closings from September through October of this year relative to this same 3-month period 1 year ago, no change was observed.

Also noteworthy was a 29.2-percent increase in total pending sales, from 21 in September to 31 in October. But not only were pending sales up versus the previous month, compared to October of 2011 they were up nearly 35 percent. There was no change in the average monthly number of pending sales each during the months of August, September and October relative to this same 3-month period in 2011; both quarters showed an average of 30 pending sales per month.

There were 273 homes listed on the Martinsville market in October, down 3.5 percent compared to the previous month’s total of 283. But compared to last October’s total of 260 listings, this is actually an increase of 5 percent. In fact, this 1-year comparison stands in stark contrast to what has been observed in most nearby Central Indiana cities, where a reduction in total listings has been the norm. Finally, from August through October of this year there was an average of 277 homes listed for sale each month, or 1.8 percent more, compared to this same period last year.

Indy Real Estate Market Sees Significant Improvements in October, 2012

For the fourth consecutive month, the number of Indianapolis homes listed for sale fell, most recently by 4.6 percent as there were 5,530 listings on the Indy market in October, 2012. But what stands out is not the fact that there were fewer listings on the market versus the previous month’s total of 5,799—considering the time of year, this is hardly unexpected in any Central Indiana real estate market—it’s that this represents a 14.2-percent decrease in total listings versus this same month 1 year ago. What’s more, from September through October of this year, there were 14.8 percent fewer homes on the market each month relative to this same quarter last year. Fewer listings on the market can only be a good thing for sellers considering this has been a buyer’s market for nearly 4 years and counting.

Another very positive statistical development was seen in the latest figures for pending sales. Not only does October’s total of 862 represents a 5.8-percent increase versus the previous month’s total of 815, but versus October of 2011, it is a much larger increase of 16.5 percent. This bodes well for the near-term future of the Indy market. In another comparison, the average number of pending sales, September through October of this year, rose 11.3 percent relative to where the market was during this same 3-month period last year.

And for the trifecta, the most recent total of 904 closings, while off by just a single closing, nevertheless represents a hefty increase of nearly 19 percent in total sales versus 1 year ago. And, from September through October of this year, there was 14.8 percent more sales activity on a monthly basis relative to this same quarter in 2011.

Big Improvements Seen in Greenwood Real Estate Market in October, 2012

While there was a marked, 26.4-percent decrease in the number of closings that took place versus the previous month, the Greenwood real estate market showed some surprising improvements in a number of key areas in October, 2012. But while the most recent total of just 81 closings was off versus the previous month, compared to October of 2011, sales were actually up 8 percent. This is not a huge improvement but nor is it trivial. In fact, statistical improvements in 2012 versus 2011, far from being the exception, have been the norm for many Central Indiana towns and cities. One final note on Greenwood sales: From September through October of this year there were, on average, 114 closings each month, or 16.3 percent more, compared to this same month last year.

Another area of real improvement came in the form of an 8.4-percent increase in total pending sales versus the previous month. But most impressively, October’s total of 90 represents a 63.6-percent increase versus this same month last year. And, from September through October of this year, there were 93 pending sales in the sales pipeline, or 17.7 percent more, versus this same quarter last year.

For anyone trying to sell a home, the most recent 6.6-percent reduction in the total number of homes on the Greenwood market had to be a welcomed surprise. But not only was October’s total of 494 listings down versus the previous month, compared to 1 year ago, it represents a significant 20.0-percent decrease in available inventory. In fact, after plateauing in May, 2012, the number of Greenwood homes listed for sale has fallen each in of the ensuing months.  In yet another comparison, the average number of homes listed for sale each month, from September through October of this year, was down 19.4 percent relative to this same quarter in 2011.

Greenfield Home Sales Rise 10.8 Percent in October, 2012

While not every stat looked pretty in October, the Greenfield real estate market showed significant improvements in at least key indicators: Pending sales and listings. October’s total of 41 pending sales, while unchanged versus the previous month’s total of 41, was nevertheless 28.1 percent improved versus last year’s total of just 32 during this same month. And, from September through October of this year, there were 41 pending sales in the pipeline, or 5.1 percent more, compared to this same period last year.

Franklin Homes Spend Nearly 56 Percent Less Time on Market in October, 2012

Amid some disappointing statistical developments in the October Franklin real estate market were just a few glimmers of light. The most recent total of 23 closings that took place in October was down 42.5 percent versus the previous month’s total of 40. Not only this, bit versus last October’s total of 36 it is a 36.1-percent decrease in sales activity. In yet another comparison, the average number of closings that took place from September through October of this year was down 11.1 percent compared to this same quarter 1 year ago.

As for those “glimmers”, there were improvements in two key stats when compared to where the market was just 1 year ago. Starting with total pending sales, the most recent total of 30, while unchanged the previous month, was actually up by 20 percent versus October of 2011. Unfortunately, the average monthly figure of 28 pending sales, from September through October of this year, represents a decrease of 12.5 percent relative to this same 3-month period 1 year ago.

After rising for a third consecutive month in September, total Franklin listings finally fell by 6.3 percent.

Fishers Inventory Dwindles for 3rd Straight Month in October, 2012

Despite a few minor and predictable setbacks versus the previous month, the Fishers real estate market made some impressive strides in October, 2012. Take total pending sales as an example: The most recent total of 97 represents a 24.8-percent decrease versus the previous month’s total of 129. But compared to October of 2011 it is an increase of 7.8 percent. Also, from September through October of this year the average number of pending sales logged each month rose 23 percent relative to this same quarter 1 year ago.

The latest figure for total sales was arguably the biggest area of improvement, especially compared to where the market was this same time 1 year ago. October’s total of 136 closings, while 7.9 percent above the previous month’s total of 126, represents a huge 49.5-percent increase versus October of 2011. And looking at the average number of closings that took place on a per-month basis, from September through October of this year, a 21.6-percent increase was observed relative to this same quarter last year.

October marked the third consecutive month the total number of homes listed on the market fell. This time, it was by 7.4 percent, as there were 538 homes on the market compared to the previous month’s total of 581. What’s more the most recent total represents a 16.1-percent decrease versus 1 year ago—a healthy development for the Fishers real estate market, to be sure.  Also, there were, on average, 13.4 percent fewer homes listed for sale each month, from September through October of this year relative this this same 3-month period last year.  Another stat to note: 146 of the 538 homes listed for sale in October were new listings altogether.

Danville Home Sales Rise 35 Percent in October, 2012

The Danville real estate market, while improved in some key areas, was a victim of seasonal changes that typically affect the entire Central Indiana area around this time of year. For example, a total of 7 more closings took place in October, 2012 compared to the previous month’s total of 20. This translates into a marked, 35-percent improvement overall. More importantly, this same time 1 year ago, there were 17.4 percent fewer closings. Clearly, things have improved in this regard. What’s more, from September through October of this year, there were an average of 21 closings each month, or 16.7 percent more versus this same 3-month period 1 year ago.

On the down side, there were just 20 pending sales in the sales pipeline, 4.8-percent fewer, versus the previous month’s total of 21. Versus October of 2011’s total of 22 this is a decrease of 9.1 percent. However, from September through October of this year, there were 22 pending sales in the pipeline each month, or 10 percent more, compared to this same period 1 year ago.

While the 124 homes listed for sale in October represent an 8.1-percent drop in total listings versus the previous month’s total of 135, compared to October of 2011 it is a 3.3-percent increase overall. And from September through October of this year there were, on average, 5.5 percent more homes on the market relative to this same quarter last year. Of the 124 homes listed for sale in October, 20 were new listings altogether. This is down by just 1 listing versus the previous month, and down an even greater 28.6 percent versus October of 2011.

Carmel Real Estate Market Shows Solid Gains in October, 2012

The Carmel real estate market didn’t look especially great in October, 2012 versus the previous month. But compared to where the market was this same time 1 year ago, some solid gains were realized. Total sales, for example, fell 19 percent, from 137 closings in September to 111 in October. But versus last October’s total of just 80 this is a significant 38.8-percent improvement. And, from September through October of this year, an average of 143 closings took place each month, making for a 24.3-percent improvement versus this same period last year.

The latest stats for pending sales were improved, but not by much. October’s total of 101 was off by nearly 18 percent versus the previous month’s total of 123. But compared to last October’s total of 100 this is an improvement of 1 percent—not much to brag about, but also no worse. One big improvement could be seen in yet another comparison. From September through October of this year there were, on average, 124 pending transactions in the pipeline each month, or 19.2 percent more, compared to this same quarter in 2011.

Perhaps the best news came in the form of an 8.8-percent decrease in the total number of Carmel homes listed for sale, from 671 in September to 312 in October. Versus October of 2011, this is a very striking decrease of nearly 20 percent, and also a very healthy development for the market. What’s more, from September through October of this year there were 17.2 percent fewer Carmel homes on the market on average relative to this same 3-month period 1 year ago. Finally, of the 612 homes listed for sale in October, 130 were new listings altogether. This is just 7 fewer versus the previous month, and 11 percent below 1 year ago.

Brownsburg Real Estate Market Improves Significantly in October, 2012

From the looks of the latest figures, you’d have never known the Brownsburg real estate market was well into what is typically a fall slump in sales. October’s total of 47 closings, for example, was up nearly 24 percent over the previous month’s total of 38. Coincidentally, a total of 38 closings also took place 1 year ago, in October, 2011. And from September through October of this year there were, on average, a total of 48 closings per month, or 17.1 percent more, compared to this same period 12 months ago.

Even more impressive was the fact that October’s total of 50 pending sales was up 35.1 percent over the previous month’s total of 37. But that’s not all: Compared to October of 2011, this is an increase of 56.3 percent. This bodes well since pending sales are nearly always a good indicator of things to come in the near future. In yet another comparison, from September through October of this year, an average of 45 pending sales were progressing toward a future closing date, 25 percent more, compared to this same quarter in 2011.

What was particular striking was the sharp decrease in the number of homes listed for sale. October’s total of 13.2 represents a 13.2-percent decrease versus the previous month’s total of 287. And versus October of 2011’s total of 272 it is a decrease of 8.5 percent. The average number of homes listed for sale per month, from September through October of this year, was down 4.2 percent relative to this same 3-month period last year.

Avon Real Estate Market Sales Rise 40.9 Percent in October, 2012

The latest sales figures for the Avon real estate market sure didn’t look like what many Central Indiana real agents have come to expect, given the time of year and the seasonal slump that normally accompanies it. Not only does October’s total of 62 closings represent a 40.9-percent increase versus the previous month’s total of 44, but compared to last October’s total of just 35 it is a huge, 77.1-percent increase in sales. And, from September through October of this year there were an average of 53 closings each month, making for a 23.3-percent increase compared to this same quarter 1 year ago.

While total pending sales fell 17 percent, from September to in October, compared to 12 months ago, this is an increase of percent.  And the average number of pending sales logged from September through October of this year rose 14 percent versus this same 3-month period in 2011.

A small-but-unmistakable improvement was seen in the latest figures for total listings. The most recent total of Avon homes for sale represents a 5.9-percent decrease versus the previous month’s total of 340, and a 7.8-percent decrease versus this same month 1 year ago. And, from September through October of this year there were, on average, 341 homes on the market each month, or 3.9-percent fewer, compared to this same quarter in 2011.

Greenwood September, 2012 Sales Up 12.4 Percent Versus Last Year

The Greenwood real estate market may have slowed down in September, 2012 in comparison to the previous month, but versus this same time 1 year ago, several unmistakable improvements were seen. Starting with our leading indicator of total sales, there were 109 closings in September, 27.3 percent fewer, compared to 150 closings in August.  But compared September of 2011 the most recent total represents a 12.4-percent increase overall. And, from August through September of this year, an average of 132 closings took place each month, 25.7 percent more, compared to this same 3-month period 1 year ago.

Pending sales was another area of improvement, at least in comparison to last year. While September’s total of just 76 pending sales does represent a 29-percent decrease versus the previous month’s total of 107, versus 12 months ago, it is an improvement of 10.1 percent. And from August through September of this year there were on average 9.9 percent more pending sales per month versus this same quarter last year.

It wasn’t a huge improvement, at least not compared to the previous month; but September’s total of 529 represents a 3.1-percent decrease in total listings. Compared to this same month 1 year ago, listings in Greenwood were down nearly 18 percent. This is a healthy development considering the market doesn’t exactly suffer from a scarcity of inventory. Moreover, from August through September of this year there were, on average, 19.7 percent fewer homes on the market versus this same quarter 1 year ago.

Zionsville Real Estate Market “Spotty” in September, 2012

“Spotty” might be a good word to describe the Zionsville real estate market in September, 2012. For while some statistically significant improvements were seen, the market regressed more than a little bit when it came to other key indicators. But considering this is the time of year the Zionsville market typically slows down, none of this is especially remarkable. Take total sales as an example: September’s total of 36 closings represents a 35.7-percent decrease versus the previous month’s total of 56. But compared to a year ago, this actually translates into a net increase of nearly 6 percent in total sales. Also, from August through September of this year there was an increase of 16.7 percent in the average monthly sales volume versus this same quarter 1 year ago.

Pending sales did not fare as well as our previous stat. The most recent total of 24 pending transactions represents a precipitous 52-percent decrease versus previous month’s total of 50. And compared to last September’s total of 28, it is a decrease of 14.3 percent. Coincidentally, like our previous stat, there was a 16.7-percent increase average number of pending sales from August through September of this year relative to this same period 1 year ago.

One important stat to watch is that of total listings. With the market heading into its perennial fall slump, it’s a good thing that the number of homes for sale in Zionsville fell by 5.4 percent versus the previous month’s total of 257. Moreover, September’s total of 243 listings represents a 22.9-percent decrease compared to this same month 1 year ago. And, from August through September of this year there were, on average, 258 homes on the market each month, or 18.4 percent more, compared to this same time last year.

Westfield Real Estate Sales Climb September, 2012

The Westfield real estate market was markedly improved in September, 2012 relative to where it was just 1 year ago. This was particularly true as it concerned total sales. September’s total of 62 closings now only represents a 10.7-percent increase relative to the previous month’s tally of just 56, but compared to September of 2011 it is a huge, 82.4-percent increase—not bad for a real estate market that is supposed to be entering its annual fall slump! As well, from August through September of this year an average of 60 closings took place each month, or 53.8 percent more, compared to this same quarter last year.

The picture wasn’t as rosy when it came to pending sales—at least not at first. While the most recent total of 33 pending sales represents a fairly significant 41.1-percent decrease compared to the previous month’s total of 56, compared to last September it is a comparably significant increase of nearly 38 percent. What’s more, from August through September of this year there were, on average, 38.2 percent more pending sales per month than there were during this same period 1 year ago.

September brought with it a bit of relief for home sellers, as there were 4.6 percent fewer homes listed for sale. Moreover, the most recent total of 206 listings, compared to last September’s total of 251, represents a much greater decrease of almost 18 percent. And the number of home listed for sale from August through September of this year was also down by 15.2 percent relative to this same quarter last year.

Indianapolis Real Estate Market Contracts in September, 2012

That the fall season was upon us was evident in the latest figures for the Indianapolis real estate market. The latest total of 875 closings that took place in September of 2012, for example, represents a sharp, 19.2-percent decrease in sales volume versus the previous month’s total of 1,083. Be this as it may, it is a respectable 7.4-percent improvement compared to where the Indy market was this same time q year ago. And as anyone who follows the market knows, a 1-year comparison yields far more insight into the overall trend of the market than does a simple 1-month comparison. In yet another comparison, we look at the average number of closings that took place from August through September of this year. The most recent figures show an average of 980 homes were sold each month, or 10.6 percent more, compared to this same period 1 year ago.

One stat that was not particular impressive was that of total pending sales. September’s total of 745 was down 25.8 percent versus the previous month’s total of 1,004. Even compared to last year’s total during this same month, it is a 4.5-percent decrease. One positive stat: The average monthly volume of pending sales from August through September of this year was up 10.5 percent versus this same 3-month period in 2011.

And last but not least, the total number of homes listed for sale fell 1.7 percent, from 5,901 in August to 5,799 in September. But what is most striking about the most recent total is that it represents a 14.4-percent decrease in total listings compare to this same month 1 year ago. And from August through September of this year there were, on average, 5,945 homes listed each month relative to this same period 1 year ago, making for a 14.5-percent decrease overall.

Noblesville Market Slows Down in September, 2012

The Noblesville real lived up to expectations in September of 2012; which is to say it slowed down as it always does this time of year. Despite this fact, some very clear improvements could be seen in comparison to where the market was this same time of year in 2011. Pending sales fell 21.2 percent, for example, versus the previous month’s total of 137. But compared to last September’s total of just 82 pending sales the most recent total of 108 represents a significant increase of nearly 32 percent. Also, from August through September of this year there were, on average, 133 pending sales logged each month, or 16.7 percent more, compared to this same quarter in 2011.

The news in regard to total sales, while not bad, wasn’t as great. September’s total of 121 closings represents a 24.8-percent decrease in sales versus the previous month’s total of 161. And while this is not an improvement versus 1 year ago, it represents a decrease of barely 1 percent. In another comparison, the average number of closings that took place each month, from August through September of this year, rose 14.8 percent versus this same period 1 year ago.

Another positive development for the Noblesville market came in the form of a 1.2-percent decrease in the number of homes listed for sale. But September’s total of 581 listings is represents a far greater 10.8-percent decrease compared to last year’s total during this same month. Moreover, there were, on average, 9.9 percent fewer homes listed on the market from August through September of this year compared to this same quarter in 2011.

Fishers Real Estate Market Holds Steady in September, 2012

The Fishers real estate market was a microcosm of the Central Indiana real estate market as a whole in September of 2012. As is typical for Central Indiana, the onset of the fall season brought with it a significant decrease in overall activity, particularly as it concerned sales. The most recent total of 121 closings that took place in September marks the 3^rd straight month that sales have fallen in Fishers, and is also a 24.8-percent decrease versus the 161 closings that took place just one month prior, in August. Versus 12 months ago, a total of just 1 fewer closing took place, which translates to a decrease of barely 1 percent. On the plus side, from August through September of this year an average of 155 closing took place each month, or 14.8 percent more,  relative to this same quarter in 2011.

One stat that stood out in our 12-month comparison was that of pending sales. While the most recent total of just 108 represents a 21.2-percent decrease relative to August’s total of 137, compared to September of 2011 it is an unmistakable increase of nearly 32 percent. As well, from August through September of this year there were 16.7 percent more pending transactions in the pipeline compared to this same quarter last year.

Sellers benefited from a 1.2-percent decrease in total listings. September’s total of 581 listings represents a 10.8-percent decrease versus this same month last year. And of the 581 homes listed for sale in September, 166 came in the form of new listings. Moreover, the average number of homes listed for sale from August through September of this year was down almost 10 percent versus this same 3-month period 1 year ago.
