The market continues to hover right around where we were this time last year, but the story behind the numbers is a little more interesting.

One of the biggest differences I’m seeing is how activity varies by price range. Certain segments are moving faster than others, so looking at the overall market doesn’t always tell you what’s happening with the type of home you’re considering buying or selling.

Mortgage rates are also better than they were this time last year, which is a positive for buyers and can make a meaningful difference in monthly payments and purchasing power.

Another factor is new construction vs. existing homes. Buyer activity and competition can look very different between the two, especially when builders are offering financing or other incentives.

If buying a home is somewhere in your future—even if you’re not ready today—feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to look at your specific situation and give you information so you can make a decision based on the market that actually applies to you.

Great class today on Mastering the Inspection with attorney Andrew Junatolo and some great agents with Indy.
The inspection is one of the most overlooked, misunderstood and can be the most complex parts of a real estate transaction. Great discussion. Always learning.

Active inventory is showing a mixed picture across our local markets, with some areas giving buyers noticeably more options than a year ago.

For the week ending August 15:

• Carmel: 154 active listings — down 3.1% from the previous week and 1.3% from last year.
• Fishers: 261 active listings — down slightly from both the previous week (-0.4%) and last year (-3.3%).
• Lawrence Township: 292 active listings — up 1.7% from the previous week and a significant 27% from last year.
• Washington Township: 289 active listings — up 4% from the previous week and 12% year-over-year.

The takeaway: Inventory isn't moving in the same direction everywhere. Carmel and Fishers remain relatively tight compared with last year, while Lawrence and Washington Townships are providing buyers with considerably more choices.

More inventory can create opportunities for buyers, but well-positioned homes can still stand out. For sellers, pricing, condition, presentation and understanding your specific neighborhood continue to matter.

The only home in Tennessee designed by Frank Lloyd Wright has hit the market for $1.6 million. The Shavin House, a Usonian residence commissioned in 1949 by Seymour and Gerte Shavin and completed in 1952 atop Chattanooga's Missionary Ridge, remains remarkably intact more than 70 years later. Built from Tennessee Crab Orchard stone and Louisiana cypress, the three-bedroom home retains Wright's signature clerestory windows and dramatic butterfly roof, with sweeping views of Lookout Mountain and the Tennessee River. It's Chattanooga's only individually designated local landmark and ranks among Tennessee's most significant works of residential architecture.

Today's buyers aren't as eager to purchase a home as they were just a few years ago, and affordability is certainly a major reason why. But it's not the only factor.

The quality of the available inventory matters more than ever. Simply placing a vacant home on the MLS with a sign in the front yard is rarely enough to generate strong interest.

Buyers are being more selective. They're looking for homes that are move-in ready, thoughtfully updated, and located in neighborhoods where they can see themselves staying for years to come.

In today's market, presentation, preparation, and pricing all play a bigger role than they did during the frenzy of the past few years. Sellers who understand this shift are the ones most likely to attract serious buyers and achieve the best results.

📊 June 2026 Market Update | Carmel, Fishers, Lawrence Township & Washington Township

The Central Indiana housing market continues to vary by community, making local expertise more valuable than ever. Here's how these four markets compared to June 2025:

📍 Carmel (Clay Township)
Median Sales Price: $725,000 (▲ 11.2%)
Homes Sold: 139 (▼ 5.4%)
New Listings: 158 (▼ 4.8%)
Active Inventory: 158 (▲ 8.2%)
Median Days on Market: 6 days (▲ 20.0%)
Sold Price per Sq. Ft.: $205 (▲ 4.6%)

Takeaway: Carmel continues to command premium pricing. While sales volume and new listings declined slightly, home values remain strong and well-priced homes continue to move quickly.

📍 Fishers (Delaware & Fall Creek Townships)
Median Sales Price: $489,995 (▲ 3.2%)
Homes Sold: 166 (▲ 11.4%)
New Listings: 206 (▲ 13.8%)
Active Inventory: 231 (▼ 3.8%)
Median Days on Market: 6 days (▼ 33.3%)
Sold Price per Sq. Ft.: $174 (▼ 0.6%)

Takeaway: Fishers remains one of the strongest seller's markets in Central Indiana. More homes sold, listings increased, inventory tightened, and homes sold significantly faster than a year ago.

📍 Lawrence Township
Median Sales Price: $300,000 (▲ 2.0%)
Homes Sold: 142 (▲ 15.4%)
New Listings: 189 (▲ 18.1%)
Active Inventory: 270 (▲ 48.4%)
Median Days on Market: 13 days (▲ 85.7%)
Sold Price per Sq. Ft.: $151 (▲ 2.0%)

Takeaway: Lawrence Township is seeing more inventory come to market, giving buyers additional choices. Despite homes taking longer to sell, prices have remained stable and sales activity continues to increase.

📍 Washington Township
Median Sales Price: $345,000 (▼ 9.4%)
Homes Sold: 197 (▲ 18.0%)
New Listings: 210 (▲ 2.4%)
Active Inventory: 278 (▲ 9.4%)
Median Days on Market: 8 days (▲ 33.3%)
Sold Price per Sq. Ft.: $192 (▼ 2.0%)

Takeaway: Washington Township experienced one of the largest increases in closed sales, but median pricing softened from last year. The combination of higher inventory and longer marketing times suggests buyers have gained a bit more negotiating power.

Overall Market Insight

Each market is telling a different story:

✅ Carmel continues to lead in price appreciation.
✅ Fishers remains one of the hottest markets with faster sales and growing demand.
✅ Lawrence Township is offering buyers more options while maintaining steady appreciation.
✅ Washington Township has seen stronger sales activity despite a decline in median prices.

Real estate has become increasingly neighborhood-specific. Understanding what's happening at the local level—not just nationally—is essential whether you're buying, selling, or investing.
