“This is the 10th house I have bought over a period of many years, working with many realtors. Without question, Isiah was the best by far and away. No question, nor any concern, no matter how small was out of reach for him. i highly recommend him.”
“Lacie was amazing throughout the whole buying experience as a first-time home owner. She made every effort to keep me informed during our buying process and shown her expertise when any questions arose. When there were some questions she couldn't answer she was able to defer me to the appriorate subject-matter expert whether it was an electrician for electrical questions/work to inspection questions. She was absolutely fantastic to work with and would highly recommend her to friends and family that are looking to buy/sell now and later! Thank you Lacie Shelby for working with my partner and I. Thank you even more for making our first home purchase worth it!”

Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Indianola real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
The typical home value in Indianola is projected to be $342,500 for the month of February. January’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $320,000—up 17.86% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $318,500 in Warren County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $347,750 in February.
Indianola had 10 new listings and 17 listings that went under contract in January, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 44—down 15.38% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in February.
Of those 44 active listings, 31.82% reduced their price in the month of January. The median listing price for homes in Indianola fell 6.57% from December to January, bringing the current median listing price to $247,500. Based on projected data for February, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In January 2026, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 61 days, compared to 99 days in January 2025. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be decreasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this February.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Indianola offers residents a welcoming, community-focused lifestyle with excellent schools, abundant parks and outdoor spaces, a thriving cultural scene, and convenient local services.
Indianola pairs college-town energy with easy metro access, offering a comfortable pace without giving up amenities. Just south of Des Moines and the seat of Warren County, it’s home to Simpson College, Des Moines Metro Opera, and the sky-filling National Balloon Classic that draws visitors from across the country. A revitalized downtown square, expanding trails, and responsive services from the City of Indianola make daily life convenient and lively.
Outdoorsy residents treasure Lake Ahquabi State Park for paddling, fishing, and shady picnic spots, while Buxton Park’s formal gardens and arboretum provide a quiet in-town retreat at the Buxton Park Arboretum. The paved Summerset Trail links Indianola to Carlisle, opening up miles of biking and running with prairie and river views. Quick commutes to employers in Norwalk broaden job options, and seasonal events—from opera under the stars to balloon glows—add a distinct local flair.
Families appreciate the strong academics, arts, and athletics of the Indianola Community School District, along with youth programs, parks, and an active civic calendar. Housing ranges from historic homes near campus to new construction on the edge of town, giving first-time buyers and move-up owners solid choices.
