With 2022 officially here, many are wondering what to expect from the Indiana real estate market this year. While no one can say for sure what this year holds, we can make some pretty educated guesses based on past Indiana real estate trends and recommendations from experts, including and beyond our team here at CENTURY 21 Scheetz. Read on for more on what's likely to come...

For those of us who have lived here for a while, we know Indiana is attractive for homebuyers. Between low prices, good schools, and a central location, Indiana has it going on!  Now it appears…the secret is out!  Named as the No. 1 state in the U.S. to create wealth from real estate investing, Indiana reached the top spot solely due to the booming real estate market in Indianapolis.

When buying a home in today’s climate…maybe the new question is “Can you see yourself quarantining here?” As we look forward, we see the light at the end of the tunnel for our country and for Central Indiana.  As a business, there were lessons to be learned and new ways to think about what we wanted in a home.  According to the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), before April 2020, the top reason for someone to sell their home was because they wanted to be closer to friends and family.   Home sellers who sold their home after March were more likely to report the main reason for selling was because their home was too small.
