📊 MARKET MONDAY | FORT WAYNE

If you live in Fort Wayne, these are the housing numbers I'm paying attention to this week.

Here's how we compare to about 30 days ago:

🏡 104 New Listings ⬆️ 15.6%
🏡 113 Homes Sold ⬆️ 13.0%
🏡 120 Price Adjustments ⬆️ 84.6%
🏡 16 Back on Market ⬆️ 45.5%
🏡 122 Pending Sales ⬆️ 27.1%
🏡 703 Total Homes Available ⬆️ 10.9%

🚨 Market Signal

Inventory keeps climbing, but so does buyer activity.

That's exactly what a healthy market looks like.

The number that jumps off the page to me isn't the inventory... it's the 84% increase in price adjustments.

That tells me buyers are still active, but they're paying attention to value. Homes that miss the mark on pricing are getting corrected, while the right homes continue to move.

📌 Buyers

You've got more choices than you've had in quite a while, but don't let that fool you into thinking every home will sit.

The good ones still move fast.

📌 Sellers

More inventory means more competition.

The homes winning today aren't necessarily the cheapest—they're the ones that are priced strategically and marketed well from day one.

📍 School District Snapshot

NACS: 25 new | 23 sold | 19 pending | 144 inventory

SACS: 20 new | 19 sold | 26 pending | 185 inventory

EACS: 15 new | 18 sold | 19 pending | 167 inventory

FWCS: 57 new | 57 sold | 68 pending | 370 inventory

FWCS continues to lead overall activity, while SACS quietly posted another strong week in pending contracts.

The biggest takeaway?

The market isn't slowing down—it's becoming more balanced.

That's good news whether you're buying or selling, as long as you have the right strategy.

Indiana Veterans: Friendly reminder.

In just a couple weeks, applications open for Indiana's new veteran property tax credit and exemption program.

One of the biggest things veterans need to know: current benefits do not automatically carry over. If you're eligible, you'll need to submit a new application through your County Auditor's office.

• Application window opens July 1

• New application required

• Credits available for qualifying disabled veterans

• Up to a 100% property tax exemption for qualifying veterans rated 100% disabled or IU

As a fellow disabled veteran, I wanted to make sure this stays on everyone's radar before the application period opens. Too many veterans miss out on benefits simply because they didn't know the rules changed.

Tag a veteran who needs to see this and help spread the word.
