“I would trust Robert with any of my property sales. He is very professional. I have no complaints, he puts everything into making you feel comfortable. He is constantly updating you with the progress and goes out of his way to keep you informed. Top notch realtor in my opinion.”
“Dennis was and still is prompt with information and questions I have. He is very knowledgable and trustworthy. He and Michelle had my well being at heart and were a blessing to the process of my purchasing this home. I will be ever grateful to them and will be sure they are my first choice in any future real estate ventures. God bless you. Sincerly,”
“I moved from Virginia to Indiana and Cheryl was exactly what I needed to make the transition a smooth and comfortable one. She kept me apprised throughout the contract and purchasing process without prompting. This was crucial considering all that I needed to accomplish for my new job and with my family.”
“Lisa is an amazing realtor. She goes way above and beyond! She is very knowledgeable and I felt very fortunate to have gone through this experience with her. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Barketa was consistently excellent in marketing my house, in being accessible with quick replies to my questions and concerns. I always felt she was my advocate and had my back during an increasingly challenging market. Many thanks!”
“Rebekah is such a caring and kind person and she brings that when working with he clients. I couldn't ask for a better partner and advocate in this process.”
“Nicole was amazing! She is knowledgable, friendly, and very helpful. She is an excellent problem-solver when challenges arose. She gave 110% on everything. She was the best real estate agent we have ever worked with. We have referred her to anyone we know in the market for a new home.”
“It's important to note that my family has been working with Kim for over a decade!! We LOVE her, and she just helped me buy back my childhood home, which she also sold for us over 10 years ago. This journey of selling my first home earlier this year, and buying my childhood home shortly thereafter has not only become an unforgettable experience, but an experience I couldn't have done without Kim by my side. She truly is the best of the best! I'm so happy my parents found her years ago, and have been working with her ever since. Now as an adult, I finally get the chance to say that working with her is seamless, fun, and this girl knows her stuff, so there's never any room for doubt. Thank you so much Kim, not only for being the best realtor, but also for basically being a part of our family!!”
“Michele Burkheimer was great, I feel very fortunate that she was my Realtor. Michele made the process go smoothly, kept me informed, educated me, and "went to bat for me", it was very good communication, she answered all my questions, help me to get things done right and on time, gave me good advices. Michele went above and beyond what, I think would be normally expected. I would certainly ask her to represent me when buying or selling real-estate and will highly recommend her to others.”
“Amy is always on top of everything surrounding my listing. She is always just a phone call away and does an excellent job communicating with me. I would strongly recommend Amy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Mark Clinkenbeard”
“Jim was referred to me by a family member who had a great experience working with him. I had high expectations before meeting Jim based off this, and he exceeded them throughout the house buying process. He was very thoughtful and communicative, which I appreciated as a first time home owner. He always made sure to point out things while touring the home and explained critical things to look for that I never considered. Jim was very flexible during the process and always made himself available to answer questions and update offers. He always put my wife and I first, and we never felt pressured while looking for a home. I would strongly recommend Jim to anyone looking for a home in Hamilton County.”
“Matt was great! Very friendly and open, super helpful.”
“Great experience, very streamlined process for negotiating and handling communication with the seller's realtor, the appraiser, the bank, etc.”
“Laura was awesome! She walked us through every step of the process to sell our house and was very knowledgeable and supportive. She was super responsive and made sure all our questions were answered and provided sound advice. Laura made the process painless and is the best realtor we've had! We would gladly work with her again and confidently recommend her services.”
“I appreciated the helpfelness and work he provided. I was sometimes disappointed in his lack of responsiveness to phone calls and texts. Overall it was a good experience.”
“Colleen Gordon is our trusted realtor every time we are in the market to buy or sell a home. Her professionalism and deep expertise make the process smooth and stress-free. She's incredibly approachable, goes the extra mile in negotiations, and handles every detail with care and dedication.”
“Stockton's commitment to me as a Seller/ client was clear. He was both very communcative and responsive (two things that I valued in this process.) He did not shy away from "diffciult" conversations and I felt he was always honest & transparent with me as Seller. I appreciated Stockton's attention to the process of selling my home.”
“Dedicated and communicative agent. She worked very hard to get our property sold as timely as possible. We couldn't have asked for anything more and I believe her to be a valuable asset to her Century 21 team. Thank you Patty!”
“Rachel is amazing. Her communication and honest approach is very important when it comes to selling and buying homes. We love Rachel and will continue to use her if we sell and buy again .”
“Selling our house with Shelley Brinson was a fantastic experience! From the initial consultation to closing, she was incredibly professional and knowledgeable about the local market. She provided expert advice on pricing and marketing, which led to multiple offers and a successful sale. We would highly recommend her services.”

The typical home value in Lake County is projected to be $287,500 for the month of August. July’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the county to be $280,000—up 9.69% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, state-level data pegged home values at $280,000 in Indiana for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $278,400 in August.
Lake County had 772 new listings and 633 listings that went under contract in July, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 1,539—up 4.62% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in August.
Of those 1,539 active listings, 40.03% reduced their price in the month of July. The median listing price for homes in Lake County fell 0.65% from June to July, bringing the current median listing price to $278,020. Based on projected data for August, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract has been fairly steady year-over-year. In July 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 35 days, compared to 38 days in July 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be steady. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this August.
