Homes in Carlton-Ludingwood are taking longer to sell in the latest rolling three-month view, with the median days on market at 56 days, up sharply from 8 days a year ago and from just 2 days this past June. Even with this slower pace, nearly 42 percent of homes still go off the market within two weeks, showing that well-positioned listings can attract quick offers. Compared with the broader Muncie area, where months of supply sits at 3.8, Carlton-Ludingwood’s lean 0.5 months of supply points to tighter conditions for buyers.
Prices have been edging up over the past year, with the typical home value rising about 7 percent year over year to roughly $168,000. List prices have climbed even faster, jumping nearly 46 percent from a year ago. The average sale-to-list price ratio has eased slightly over the year to about 98.5 percent, while roughly one-third of recent sales closed above list price.
Inventory is still limited, even though active listings are up about 127 percent from last year to just 9 homes, and new listings are only slightly higher year over year. Sales activity has picked up modestly, with homes sold roughly flat but pending sales surging more than 75 percent, signaling strong buyer interest despite longer marketing times.
