carmel real estate: Homes Sold in Carmel 2011 Stats - 01/12/12 07:59 AM
Homes sold in Carmel for the year 2011 compared to 2010 were up 7% which is great news. There were 1324 homes sold in Carmel in 2011 compared with 1234 a year ago.
Nearly every quarter in 2011 outsold the quarters of 2010. Probably the only reason the 2nd quarter lagged was due to all the first time home buyers in 2010 in that time period trying to take advantage of the $8,000 first time home buying credit.
It is good to see amidst all of the negative rhetoric about the declining housing market that at the end of the … (1 comments)

I think if I were looking for a home for sale in Carmel, a ranch styled home with a basement would be on my short list.  The comforts of single floor living appeals to me greatly these days!  I would also want a basement; after all these years I would need a place to store all the “stuff” from the kids moving out and leaving things behind!
I love being a REALTOR for many reasons but one of those reasons is the ability to just look at different types of housing on a whim.  Today, … (7 comments)

carmel real estate: Carmel Indiana Real Estate Market Report November 2010 - 12/10/10 07:11 AM
This is certainly a frustrating time for sellers anywhere in the U.S.  And it is in the Carmel Indiana Real Estate market too; it is taking longer to sell homes and they are selling for less.  If you are a buyer, you can certainly be reaping the benefits.
Here are the results for my local area, Carmel Indiana.  There were 67 homes closed in November 2010 compared with 120 in November 2009.  There were 10 distressed homes in both years for November; but the %age is higher in 2010 since there were fewer total homes sold.
The days on the market were 107 … (26 comments)

carmel real estate: Filing your Homestead and Mortgage Exemptions - 11/01/10 07:05 AM
While I love to write about the events in Carmel and the Carmel Real Estate market, it is a necessity that I write about filing your exemptions.  It will matter to everyone who owns a home in Carmel.  The mortgage exemption reduces the assessed value of your home by $3,000 and the homestead exemption reduces the assessment by $45,000.  You can only have exemptions on one home in Indiana.
