Some Market Stats for Avon, IN and Washington Township

Chris Camperelli: Real Estate Sales Person in Avon, IN

I dug up some stats out of MIBOR (Metropolitan Indianapolis Board of Realtors) for Avon and the surrounding Washington Township area for the past twelve months, from 10/8/07 to 10/7/08:

For residential (single family and condominiums):

Currently for sale: 515

Average Listing Price: $212,625

Average Days on Market: 140

In addition, the typical listing is a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home. 4 out of 5 have at least 1 fireplace and 22% have basements. Homes have an average of 2,244 sf.

Sold in the past 12 months: 838

Average Sale Price: $166,720

Average Days on Market: 84

Home which have sold are 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath homes. 2 out of 3 have at least 1 fireplace and 22% have basements. Homes have an average of 2,330 sf.

This also indicates, based upon number of homes sold versus now for sale, that there is a little over a 7 month supply on the market here. Sellers (and in most cases, their real estate agents) are still placing their homes on the market at unrealistically-high prices, as indicated by the sold vs. active data above.

PRICE YOUR HOME CORRECTLY. You benefit by attracting more buyers, selling faster and for closer to what you are asking.

AVON- HENDRICKS COUNTY - As the spring home buying season begins, pended sales in the nine-county region slipped in March while available inventory showed a slight decline for the first time this year, according to pended sales statistics compiled by CHRIS CASTETTER / F.C. Tucker Company.

March pended home sales were down 14.7 percent with 2,419 homes pending compared to 2,836 in March 2007. So far this year, overall pended home sales are down 10.1 percent from March 2007. Available inventory in March was 18,405, which is 158 fewer homes available than in March 2007.

"While the drop in pended home sales in March is higher than we anticipated based on February's encouraging numbers, available inventory appears to be starting to balance out. "Going into the spring/summer home buying season, we anticipate a sales spike as homeowners get back into the market, which continues to offer an excellent array of homes at affordable prices." www.sellmyavonhouse.com
