Did you know that the home buyers tax credit is still available to military families?

Did you know that the home buyer’s tax credit is still available for military families?
Members of the military and certain other federal employees serving outside the US have an extra year to buy a principal residence in the US and qualify for the home buyers tax credit.  The military families need to enter into a binding contract by April 30, 2011 and to close by June 30 of next year.   This applies to any individual who served on qualified official extended duty service outside the US for 90 days during the period Dec 31, 2008 and ending May 1, 2010. Do you know of anyone that would fall into this category who wants to take advantage of the home buyers tax credit?
Improved affordability may lead to opportunities for someone you know to take advantage of current home prices and low interest rates. So who else might be possible buyers in today’s market?

*
Someone who is ready to downsize
*
Someone whose family has outgrown their current residence
*
A young couple who wants to start building equity
*
Someone whose family status has change due to marriage or divorce

Who do you know who wants to take advantage of the affordable real estate options out there? Is that you? One of your relatives?  If you know of someone, yourself included, who wants to buy or sell real estate,  Give me a call!

Home Prices are Up…..

Home prices climb an average of 8.9 percent in Central Indiana
Overall year-to-date pended home sales dip slightly

INDIANAPOLIS – The average sales price for homes in the nine-county Central Indiana region is up 8.9 percent year to date, because the mix of sales has changed, according to sales statistics compiled by F.C. Tucker Company. More homes at $300,000 and above have sold, reflecting the uptick in prices. At the same time, however, pended homes sales are down slightly at 2 percent lower for the year compared to 2009.

Central Indiana homes sold for an average price of $148,649 for the first seven months of the year, a healthy increase of $12,102 over the 2009 year-to-date sales price. Shelby County reported the biggest home price gain at 21.6 percent, while Marion County also posted double digit gains at 13.2 percent.

On a monthly basis, pended home sales were off -27.4 percent in July 2010 compared to July 2009, although Shelby County posted an increase with a 17.2 percent upsurge. Year-to-date pended sales figures are tracking more in line with 2009, with Boone, Hancock and Shelby counties all registering positive gains in pended home sales, while Hamilton, Johnson and Morgan counties’ pended sales are on par with pended sales from the same period in 2009.

More homes were listed on the market last month compared to July 2009, with 17,276 homes for sale, up 5.8 percent. Four counties experienced above average inventory increases. Hendricks County experienced the greatest increase in inventory at 14.2 percent, followed by Hamilton County at a 7.2 percent increase in listings.

“The overall market is still absorbing the sales rush precipitated by the Federal credits. The incredibly low mortgage rates are spurring some home owners to re-enter the real estate market, causing inventory to rise, while other homeowners are staying put and refinancing,” said Jim Litten, president of F.C. Tucker Company. “Home prices are stabilizing and even increasing, and the selection for buyers is growing.”

If you or anyone you know is interested in selling please call Chris at 317 271-1700
