HOOSIER HOUSING REPORT

According to the latest housing data compiled by RE/MAX of Indiana, Southeast Indianas real estate market recorded relatively strong growth for the early months of 2012. Sixteen percent more homes sold during the first quarter of 2012 with 573 homes compared to the same time last year with 493 homes.

Broken out by county, Floyd had the most significant year-to-date increase in the number of homes sold, with 36 percent, followed by Scott County with 24 percent. The number of homes sold increased in Clark County as well, with nearly 15 percent more homes sold from January through March 2012 compared to the same time last year.

"During the first three months of the year, the Southeast Indiana market saw greater interest in home buying due to several key factors," said Bill Burns, broker/owner of RE/MAX First in Jeffersonville. "The mild winter weather certainly helped, but positive reports on job growth have also been critical. With companies like GE and Ford hiring workers, and Amazon building a new facility bringing 1,000 jobs to the region, such news is helping fuel our local economy. And that news is helping fuel home sales."

RE/MAX of Indiana is Hoosiers real estate market leader with $2.7 billion in annual sales, over 75 offices and nearly 1,200 sales associates. Founded in 1987, RE/MAX of Indiana helps growing families and businesses through its expertise in residential and commercial real estate, as well as relocation and referral services. Having sold 1.5 million homes in Indiana over the last five years, "nobody sells more real estate than RE/MAX."
