Wow!! The number of listings in Indy has dropped 24.4% per MIBOR since March and I am seeing it in the low inventory available to show my buyer clients. What I have found is that there are fewer homes in good condition at market-acceptable prices than in the recent past. This is making it more frustrating for buyers to see a number of feasible options when house-hunting, however it is having a positive effect on sellers in that the average sales price is increasing-a simple law of supply and demand.
If you or someone you know is thinking of selling their home, please talk with your real estate agent to see how the market has changed and how you might benefit from the low inventory. In many cases and areas, inventory is below 3 months right now, which is indicative of a strong SELLERS market.
