And the year end month by month look at the average sales price for Carmel Indiana real estate:

 

carmel_real_estate_450 

 

From a demand perspective, it looks like Carmel real estate is tearing it up with 5 straight months of increased demand and 4 of the 5 seeing double digit increases over last year. 10% this month, 55% increase last month, 70% increase in October…this are REALLY good signs. What is a bit disappointing is that this increase in the number of homes sold is not translating into an increase in the average sales price…yet. The average sales price is more of wild ride over the course of the year seeing a 13% gain two months ago and then a 9% decrease this month. The first time home buyers could be affecting the average sales price but it is just too hard to tell from a macro perspective like this. One thing is for sure, the demand for Carmel real estate seems to be heating up and that is a good thing. Based on the previous 5 months of increased sales, I would project good things for Carmel Indiana real estate in 2010 but only time will tell.
