The housing market in Central Indiana for September 2024 shows a mixed yet steady landscape compared to the same period last year. According to data from MIBOR BLC®, the median sales price remained unchanged at $300,000, reflecting stability in home values across the region. While this price point held steady year-over-year, it did show a slight decline from August, signaling a brief pause in upward trends observed earlier in the year.
Sales Activity and Inventory Shifts
Closed sales saw a modest uptick compared to September 2023, indicating continued buyer interest despite market fluctuations. New listings, however, experienced a small dip, suggesting that fewer homes were being put on the market as sellers may be taking a more cautious approach. This decrease in new inventory, paired with relatively steady prices, points to a market where demand is still robust but options for buyers are slightly more limited.
County-by-County Breakdown
In a closer look at county data, many areas in Central Indiana saw notable shifts:
What’s Ahead for the Market?
According to MIBOR CEO Shelley Specchio, favorable mortgage rates have fueled buyer interest since the start of the summer, with the market showing signs of resilience. However, recent economic reports suggest continued unpredictability in the months ahead. As mortgage rates adjust based on broader economic factors, potential buyers and sellers will need to remain agile.
The market's path toward more favorable conditions remains in flux, but with inventory slowly increasing and demand holding steady, the outlook for Central Indiana real estate remains cautiously optimistic as we approach the end of 2024.

As we move into August, it’s a great time to look back and analyze the real estate trends from July. The summer months have provided us with valuable insights into the Indiana housing market, revealing patterns that could influence your real estate decisions. Whether you’re planning to buy, sell, or simply keep an eye on the market, here’s a snapshot of how key Indiana counties performed in July, offering valuable insights into the trends that shaped the market last month.
Comparison Note: Percent change comparisons reflect results from June 2024 to July 2024 for the prior month, and from July 2023 to July 2024 for the prior year. Data provided by MIBOR Listing Cooperative, compiled on August 11, 2024.
Bartholomew County
In Bartholomew County, the median sales price has dipped to $254,900, marking a notable decline of 8.6% from last month and 9.3% from last year. This drop in prices might suggest a cooling market, but it's worth noting that the number of units sold has increased significantly by 33.7% compared to the previous month. This rise in sales could indicate that despite lower prices, buyers are actively seizing opportunities. The inventory levels remain stable with 157 active listings, while new listings have slightly decreased, down 8.9% from the prior month.
Boone County is seeing a more complex picture. The median sales price of $394,000 represents a decrease of 7.3% from last month, though it’s only a slight drop of 2.5% year-over-year. The number of units sold has seen a 6.8% increase from last month, which might suggest that despite falling prices, the market remains dynamic and active. However, with new listings falling by 12.6%, the active inventory of 157 homes has slightly decreased. The consistent median days on market of 13 days may indicate that well-priced homes are still attracting buyers relatively quickly.
Brown County
Brown County is experiencing a significant drop in median sales prices, down 13.9% to $309,999. Despite this, units sold have increased by 21.1%, showing a positive trend in sales activity. The rising inventory levels, up 16.1%, might be contributing to this price reduction, providing buyers with more choices. The median days on market have decreased substantially, suggesting a faster-moving market despite the drop in prices.
Decatur County
Decatur County presents a different scenario with a dramatic 20.2% drop in median sales price to $210,000. However, the number of units sold has increased by 31.6%, which could indicate that lower prices are driving higher sales volumes. Inventory levels are down slightly, and with a decrease in new listings, the market might be adjusting to these price changes. The reduced median days on market to 11 days shows that homes are selling quicker in this lower-price bracket.
Hamilton County
Hamilton County’s market shows resilience with a median sales price of $464,950, up 3.0% from last month. The number of units sold has decreased slightly by 1.3%, but the increase in active inventory and new listings suggests a more balanced market. The median days on market have increased significantly to 11 days, which could be a sign that higher-priced homes are taking a bit longer to sell, possibly due to the higher inventory levels.
Hancock County
Hancock County is seeing a modest increase in median sales price to $326,750, up 1.3% from last month. Sales activity is strong with a 31.0% increase in units sold, indicating a vibrant market. Despite a slight decrease in new listings, the median days on market is stable, suggesting a healthy demand for homes in this area.
Hendricks County
In Hendricks County, the median sales price has remained relatively stable at $349,240, with a slight 0.2% decrease from last month. Sales have slightly decreased by 7.6%, yet the inventory remains manageable with a slight decrease in new listings. The increase in median days on market indicates that while homes are still selling, they may be taking a bit longer to find the right buyer.
Jackson County has experienced a 4.3% drop in median sales price to $225,000. Despite this, sales activity has increased by 7.9%, and the median days on market have decreased significantly. This suggests that lower prices might be stimulating buyer interest and quicker sales.
Jennings County
Jennings County’s median sales price has remained steady at $212,000, with no change from the previous month. However, the number of units sold has decreased, suggesting a potential softening in demand. The increase in active inventory and median days on market might indicate a shift toward a more buyer-friendly market.
Johnson County
Johnson County’s market shows a decrease in median sales price to $307,998, down 9.4% from last month. Despite this, sales activity remains strong with a decrease in median days on market, indicating that homes are still selling relatively quickly. New listings have slightly increased, suggesting a steady flow of new properties coming onto the market.
Madison County
Madison County is experiencing a strong market with a 36.4% increase in median sales price to $225,000. The number of units sold has also increased significantly, suggesting high buyer demand. The stable median days on market indicates that homes are selling at a consistent pace despite the rising prices.
Marion County
Marion County’s median sales price is $259,000, showing a slight decrease from last month but an increase from last year. The large number of units sold and the increase in active inventory suggest a robust and active market. The decrease in median days on market to 12 days indicates that homes are selling relatively quickly in this large and diverse market.
Montgomery County
Montgomery County shows a significant decrease in median sales price to $177,500, down 12.6%. Despite this, the number of units sold has increased, suggesting that lower prices are attracting more buyers. The decrease in median days on market indicates that homes are selling faster, likely due to the more attractive pricing.
Morgan County
Morgan County has seen a decrease in median sales price to $313,750, down 3.5%. However, sales activity remains strong, and the decrease in median days on market suggests a quick turnover for homes in this area. The increase in active inventory and new listings may offer more options for buyers.
Putnam County
In Putnam County, the median sales price has increased slightly to $259,000. However, the significant decrease in new listings and increase in active inventory suggest a market adjusting to changes. The longer median days on market may indicate that homes are taking a bit longer to sell.
Shelby County
Shelby County has seen an increase in median sales price to $272,500, with a 6.9% rise from last month. Despite a slight decrease in the number of units sold, the increase in median days on market suggests that while prices are rising, homes are taking longer to sell.

In this day and age, it is quite rare for a person or family to have much control over when they move. Whether your growing family makes it so that you need more space or your job takes you to a new city, most people often have a window of a few months or at most, a year within when to move.
If life has made it so that you need to sell your house, or if you're one of those lucky few who has a bit more freedom in the choice, you're probably asking yourself if now is the right time to sell your Indianapolis home.
Prices are certainly lower than they were in years past, but that's not always a bad thing for people who are looking to sell. It may be that by selling your current Indianapolis home, you'll be able to upgrade to a bigger place or a nicer area without spending nearly as much as you would've had to in years past. This is also an ideal market for purchasing foreclosed homes, which can be bought for significantly less than their market value.
But, the question, however, is this: is NOW the best time to sell a house in Indiana?
When it comes to the best time to sell a home, it depends on your goals. For instance, are you going to put your property on the market for profit or sell it quickly?
The best time to list homes for sale in Indiana is in May, June, and July. In July 2023, the median selling price for homes was $258,600, which is expected to increase this 2024.
On average, homes stay on the market for 41-43 days during June and July. This makes it 10-15 days shorter than the rest of the month, making these months the best time to close a home sale.
However, there are people who have strict home-selling timelines, and these are usually the ones who have to relocate because of work location. Normally, they do this during November and December.
Properties listed at the beginning of the week, let's say Monday or Tuesday, often stay longer on the market.
If you want to improve your chances of selling your home quickly, list it on Thursday. This is the "pre-weekend" and they have time to look at online listings and plan their open homes tour.
As always, the best time to sell a home is during spring; however, if you want to sell it quicker and for a higher profit, it's recommended to list your property in late spring or early summer.
Putting your home on the market during these seasons is better because of the following reasons:
Winter, however, can still present a chance for a warmer climate home sale. Investing in a vacation home is the reason why buyers travel to Indiana.
When selling a home, here are the things you need to consider:
Work - Whether it's a better job offer or a current one requiring you to move into a new location, this might force you to sell your home in the market.
Neighborhood - Perhaps you're looking for a home closer to your kid's school or you want a safer school, this might call for a relocation.
Divorce - After a divorce, the ex-couple might decide to sell a home for practicality and perhaps, sentimental reasons. That said, moving to a home is not just an option but a decision to make.
Interest Rates - The demand for mortgages is increased by lower interest rates. This has an impact on the real estate market, which raises property prices.
Economy - The employment rate, GDP, manufacturing activity, cost of goods, and other economic variables all have an impact on the Indiana real estate market.
Government Policies - The government can introduce tax credits, subsidies, and deductions to establish a housing market that is advantageous temporarily.
Downgrading - You can sell your bigger home and move into a smaller one if you're trying to reduce your property taxes, homeowners insurance, and HOA dues.
Affordability - The affordability of buyers is influenced by the average mortgage rate. Make sure to find out ahead of time whether interest rates are rising or falling.
Equity For A New Home - You can sell your current house when the equity has grown to the point where an adequate down payment is required.
