And a quick average sales price graph:

 

Carmel always amazes me when I do these market reports. While most other areas have a significant decrease in sales activity, Carmel Indiana homes are selling 16% more than in 2010. What is not great is that for 3 months running we have seen decreases in sales prices in Carmel. This is contrary to the trend last year when we actually saw an increase in average sales price despite the market conditions and decreased sales activity. The percentage of foreclosures has seen a slight increase over 2010; we are seeing 10% of all homes sales involve some sort of “distressed” property versus 7% last year.

One thing is for sure, the fundamentals of the Carmel Indiana real estate remain strong. Demand remains relatively strong and we are only seeing an 8 month supply of homes in the market. It remains to be seen how Carmel will weather the rest of this storm in 2011 and how much more of an impact the foreclosures will have but I don’t expect any major swings in the Carmel market as it has always proven to be quite reliable.
