Do you see what I see??? Holy shift in numbers…a 70% increase in the number of homes sold and a 13% increase in the average selling price!!! Wow! I really did not expect to see this kind of swing in the Carmel area. I don’t know if it the tax credit or what, but it would reason that areas like Noblesville or Fishers would be better candidates for swings like this. Well, I am not complaining just shocked. This is great news but as always let’s take it with a grain of salt and see how the market does over the next couple of months before we start celebrating too much.

Well, considering the tax credit coming to an end; I expected to see a big increase in these numbers. I might be able to justify a decrease in the average sales price because the first time home buyer should be purchasing the less expensive homes on the market. However, I am shocked to see a decrease in the number of homes. Until this tax credit crunch is behind us, we really won’t be able to get a good grasp on the market.

I almost don’t want to say it, but we almost just had a good month and it appears things might be trending toward a leveling off or maybe even towards positive territory. Let’s not get too excited, the expiration of the tax credit most likely is having an effect on these numbers, but it is still great to see an increase in the average sales price in Indianapolis. I have not seen that in a long while. This could be a great sign, it just be the tax credit creating a false sense of demand. Only time will tell but for now it is looking positive for Indianapolis homes.
