The Art of Distinction Blog by Encore Sotheby's International Realty

As we move into the summer season, market activity across many of the regions we serve has shown notable strength. We continue to see meaningful increases in sales volume in communities like Zionsville, Noblesville, and Fort Wayne — a sign of strong buyer engagement and seasonal momentum. Luxury markets, both in Central Indiana and Fort Wayne, have also experienced healthy transaction growth, though some price adjustments reflect evolving buyer preferences and a rebalancing at the top end of the market.

Home values have generally held firm or appreciated in most areas, with standout increases in Carmel, Valparaiso, and the Kosciusko County lakefront market — highlighting continued demand for quality properties in desirable locations. In many communities, homes are spending fewer days on the market, signaling efficient movement and confident decision-making from buyers. While some areas such as Downtown Indianapolis and Steuben County’s lakefront saw longer selling times, these shifts can be attributed to specific inventory trends or price segments.

As always, our team at Encore Sotheby’s International Realty remains committed to helping you interpret the data behind the market so you can make informed, confident real estate decisions. Whether you’re considering buying, selling, or investing, we’re here to provide expert guidance tailored to your goals.
