Happy Holidays!!
We hope that you had a fun and restful Thanksgiving spent with friends and family and are looking forward to more time with friends and family this Christmas season. While this can be a hectic and stressful time, to be sure, it also can be one of time spent reconnecting with friends and family and, hopefully, enjoying some much-needed time away from work.
Hopefully, you received our calendar in the mail over the past week or two and will enjoy it throughout 2019. If you didn't receive one and would like to be on our list for next year, please let us know and we will add you to our list.
For Thanksgiving this year, Steve and his family had Jack and Mary Anne over for dinner and they enjoyed being able to relax and Mary Anne enjoyed not having to cook a big dinner. Michelle and her family enjoyed Thanksgiving at family in Louisville. Kylie and Julia both enjoyed Thanksgiving with family here in Indy. We hope you were able to enjoy some time with family and friends as well.
Our family will be staying in Indy for Christmas and Brigid's family will be coming into to town to celebrate with us. Ana & Tali are looking forward to seeing everyone and taking a break from studying for a few weeks. Tali starts her gymnastics competition season mid-December and will be competing a level up from last week. We are anxious to see how this year goes competing at a higher level. Ana is in her busy season with performances with her school's show choir and many performances with The Indianapolis Children's Choir. If you haven't ever attended their Angels' Sing performance, consider making time to attend. It is nothing short of remarkable and will absolutely put you in the spirit of the season!
Due to the holidays, don't forget that we will NOT be having a December Happy Hour. We will pick back up again in January on the 16th from 5-6:30PM at Matt The Miller's. Look for your evite to confirm your attendance. If you aren't on our evite list, please let us know and we would be happy to add you!
Finally, we hope we will see you TOMORROW for our 6th Annual VIP Client Appreciation Event at the movies. We have rented a theater at Hamilton Town Center again and will be showing Wreck It Ralph 2. We have a FEW seats remaining, so if you would like to attend, please e-mail Kylie at Kylie@Welcome2Indy.com. The fun starts at 8:30AM and the movie starts promptly at 9:30AM. We will have a photo op stop, a caricature artist, food, and fun. We hope to see you there!!!
As for the market, it has definitely cooled off from a few months ago. It is still very strong, but houses are sitting on the market much longer, some for more than 90-days due to very weak buyer activity. We expect the market to pick back up again in the spring (around March 1st or so) for another strong year. Here are some recent housing stats from MIBOR comparing October 2018 to October 2017:
New listings-UP 13.4% to 3,707 units
Pending sales-UP 9.4% to 3,017 units
Closed sales-UP 1.7% to 3,196 units
Median sales price-UP 6.4% to $174,500
Average sales price-UP 2.7% to $206,681
Percent of original list price received at sale-UP 0.3% to 95.4%
Total active listings available at month end-DOWN 8.0% to 8,339 units
Months supply of inventory-DOWN 10.0% to 2.7 months
