Housing market in Elkhart County is encouraging for buyers and sellers

Posted:

There's some good news for homeowners in Indiana.

Home prices and market activity were strong during the month of June.

That's according to a report by Indiana realtors.

The average home price in Elkhart County is up 7.2%.

That means the average price for a home over the last three months is $98,700.00.

Elkhart County realtors say this is encouraging news.

Elkhart Realtors Association President Tom Canarecci said,"We had it was a buyer's market because we had a glut of listings in the market but as the market becomes more in balance that helps our pricing."

Advice to sellers if you want to get the most for your home..

You really want to have your home ready to compete by paying attention to every little detail to make it shine.

And for buyers be careful of foreclosures and fixer-uppers because there can be complications in buying one.
