Southern Indiana Home Sales are Down
Press Release For: Thursday, August 04, 2011
JEFFERSONVILLE — (August 4, 2011) — According to the latest data compiled by RE/MAX of Indiana, the number of homes sold in Southern Indiana in June 2011 were down 8 percent compared to June 2010. However, despite this decrease in home sales during the month of June compared to June 2010, the trend for month-to-month data of closed home sales shows a significant improvement for the 14-county area.
“The number of homes sold in April, May and June of this year have all been down when compared to the number of homes sold during the same period in 2010,” said Dan Breault, executive vice president, regional director of RE/MAX of Indiana. “However, each month’s comparison to 2010 has gotten progressively better, moving nearly 14 percentage points in three months. If this trend continues, Southern Indiana’s real estate market could very soon be back on the plus side.”
