Fort Wayne real estate market report for August, 2013, brought to you by Amanda and Jared Christiansen with Century 21 Bradley.

Are you wondering what happened in the Fort Wayne real estate market last month?  Let's take a look!

Homes sold:  401

Average days on market:  56

Average list price:  $148,513

Average sales price: $143, 516 (97% of list price)

Median sales price:  $118,000

Lowest sales price:  $7,510 (Foreclosure near downtown Fort Wayne)

Highest sales price:  $910,000 (6 bedroom, 5,000 + square foot luxury home in The Cliffs Subdivision in Southwest Fort Wayne)

Overall, the market in August of 2013 was great.  56 days on market and sales price being 97% of list price are both great things for sellers in the area.

Let's take a look at active homes for sale in Fort Wayne (as of Sep 4, 2013).

Homes for sale:  1,744

Average days on market:  98

Average list price:  $142,078

Median list price:  $103,900

Lowest list price:  $7,100 (Major fixer upper near downtown Fort Wayne)

Highest list price:  $1,499,900 (7,500 square foot luxury home on 10 acres in Devils Hollow subdivision in Southwest Fort wayne)

The Fort Wayne real estate market showed a little bit of a slow down over August.  With interest rates up a little bit (even though they aren't THAT high), summer vacations ending, and kids getting back to school it's no surprise that things are slower. This pretty much happens every year.  

In the last few days we have already seen an increase in showings, and buyers are starting to come out of the woodwork again. Those are all good signs for a strong end to the year.

Nice market report Jared.  Yes, it's time for you guys to slow down and time for those snowbirds to start packing up the old Cadillac to come down here and sell, buy, resell, rebuy.
