The real estate market here in Evansville Indiana does not always follow the national trend. We are in a fortunate situation that our market is sheltered and we do not have the extreme ups and downs as in other markets. However, the trend that: “Demand Strong for Well-Prices Homes” does apply to our local market. Homes that have been updated and are in move-in condition and that are priced right, will sell faster.

Demand Strong for Well-Prices Homes


Yes, houses will sell as long as they are priced right. In many — but not all places — that means they’re priced low.

"People who price their homes to the market are selling them in a reasonable amount of time, but people who cling to 2004 or 2005 prices aren't," says Richard Smith, president and CEO of Realogy, the parent company of Century 21, ERA, Coldwell Banker and Sotheby's International Realty.

In some areas, pent-up demand has exploded. "It's crazy," says Brendon DeSimone, an associate with Paragon Real Estate in the Noe Valley near San Francisco. "I had one house with five offers, and it went from $1.4 million to $1.7 million. The valley has just popped. It's not uncommon for one open house to have 200 people come through."

The best deals on homes these days are often on properties that aren’t perfect.

Home shoppers looking for a great deal should keep these factors in mind when they are looking for a place with potential:

· Location, location, location. It’s still true that you get a better deal when you buy the worst house in a great neighborhood than you do when you buy a fancy house in a not-so terrific neighborhood.

· Less than 50 years old. Properties older than a half decade are likely to have more fundamental problems like aging wiring, inadequate plumbing and sagging foundations.

· Livable floor plan. Buyers should select a home with a basic design they can live with. Once they start moving walls, they’re into big money.

· Light. Houses with the most potential have plenty of natural light.

· Good storage. Adding storage isn’t cheap, so it’s smart to choose a property that already has it.
