The summer months have provided us with valuable insights into the Indiana housing market, revealing patterns that could influence your real estate decisions.

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.

The dynamic real estate market is changing constantly as we move forward with 2024, influenced by a wide range of causes from significant technical breakthroughs to broad-based changes in the global economy.
Entrepreneurs need to be extremely aware of the ever-changing real estate industry and take the initiative to keep ahead of the curve to make well-informed decisions and take advantage of the numerous opportunities that present themselves.
As we move through this period of fast change, let's take a closer look at a few major themes that have made and will likely make a big impact on the real estate market this 2024.
In the upcoming year, entrepreneurs attempting to manage the complexities of the real estate business will surely need to understand and adjust to these developments.
Real estate is increasingly driven by technology. Smart home technology, sustainable building techniques, and AI in property development will rise in 2024.
These technologies will help real estate businesses fulfill the increasing need for ecological and tech-savvy living environments by improving their buildings' appeal and efficiency.
Adaptation to the real estate market occurs due to individuals' diverse ways of living and working. Co-living and flexible working are rising due to millennials' desire for collaboration. Real estate businesses should invest in homes with customizable spaces for residential and professional use.
Environmental sustainability is now a key factor in real estate decisions rather than just a trendy term. We predict that energy efficiency, eco-friendly construction, and green building methods will receive more attention in 2024.
Sustainability-focused business owners not only support environmental preservation but also cater to the growing eco-awareness of their clientele.
While urban centers develop, suburban living is regaining popularity. Many people now want large suburban homes after the pandemic. Due to current real estate consumers' different tastes, entrepreneurs should monitor urban revival and suburban growth.
Blockchain technology is revolutionizing real estate transactions by improving security, transparency, and efficiency. A blockchain-powered smart contract could simplify property deals without intermediaries. Real estate entrepreneurs should consider how blockchain might streamline operations for buyers, sellers, and investors.
Demographics and lifestyles are changing the rental market. Co-living, furnished apartments, and short-term rentals are growing. Due to the demand for flexible and innovative leasing choices, entrepreneurs should diversify their portfolios.
Even now, the real estate industry feels the effects of the global economy's interconnectedness. The global economy affects real estate. Entrepreneurs should stay alert because Geopolitics, interest rates, and economic developments can affect worldwide property values and investment prospects.
Economic instability can result from geopolitical events, including trade difficulties, conflicts, and diplomatic relations. Investor confidence and real estate investment decisions may be affected by this uncertainty. Real estate investment may rise when geopolitical stability is high, whereas instability may slow it.
Prefabricated and modular construction solutions speed up the construction process while retaining quality in this new approach to homebuilding. Builders and homebuyers favor modular housing for its efficiency, cost, and sustainability.
Real estate values are affected by inflation. Real estate may hedge inflation in times of high inflation. Investors may purchase property to preserve their wealth, which may cause prices to rise.
Innovation, sustainability, and adaptation will define what are real estate market trends in 2024. Entrepreneurs who follow the current real estate market trends in 2024, use technology, and adapt to consumer tastes will succeed in a fast-changing business. Entrepreneurs can negotiate the real estate market and seize future possibilities by being knowledgeable and flexible.
