Real Estate Market in Indiana
Along with the rest of the nation, the Indiana housing market has experienced a difficult recovery in the past seven or eight years. However, when looking at historic data of the state, Indiana did not fully experience that “bubble” effect that brought the entire nation upside down. Analysts point to Indiana’s economic performance as the main driver of the housing market, rather than the general trend of the nation’s market.
Today, Indiana is showing signs of significant improvement in the housing market. Ever since 2012, Indiana has produced better results for market activity and housing prices every month on a year-to-year basis. As of October 2013, the number of existing, single-family homes sold statewide increased 15.9 percent when compared with the same period in 2012. The median sales price of $122,800 in 2013 is a 4.1 percent increase from the first 10 months of last year.
Arguably, one of the greatest challenges of the Indiana housing market is the foreclosure situation. In the early 2000s, Indiana had one of the highest foreclosure rates in the nation. While the state is balancing out, foreclosure rates are still keeping home builders in the margins. The good news for investors looking to buy-fix-sell or buy-fix-rent is that there is plenty of inventory in the pre-market segment, and demand from homebuyers is still on the rise. Empowered by low prices and interest rates, and an upswing in wages and employment, homebuyers are starting to look for their next purchase.
Statewide, Indiana is well past the recovery stage and is moving toward a stable, balanced marketplace. Experts tend to agree, all things being equal, that the housing market will continue to show considerable improvements.
If you are an investor looking to buy-fix-sell or buy-fix-rent investment properties in Indiana, you need to find a reliable source of funding. Even if you have the cash available to purchase an investment property, you might want to consider using our hard money loans to make your investments more efficient.

Real Estate Investors Associations in Indiana
While hard money and private money can boost your investments, Real Estate Investors Associations (REIAs) are a valuable source that must not be overlooked. REIAs provide tremendous benefits for both beginning and experienced real estate investors. Our most successful hard money borrowers are, or have been, members of a local REIA. Now, that does not mean you have to be a member of a REIA to qualify for our hard money loans, but it is definitely recommended. REIA members can easily connect, build partnerships and do business with other fellow members and real estate professionals through their networking events, seminars and discussion groups. Although some REIAs provide additional benefits (like vendor discounts) most are centered in educating its members and networking. Indiana provides a variety of REIAs all over the state, and, for those who are interested, here are the most popular ones and their location:
- Central Indiana Real Estate Investors Association (CIREIA) – Indianapolis, IN.
- Indiana REI Network – Fishers, IN.
- Indy Property Investors – Indianapolis, IN.
- Investor’s Choice Indy – Greenwood, IN.
- Northwest Indiana Creative Investors Association (NICIA) – Lake Station, IN.
- Southeastern Indiana Real Estate Investors Association – Greensburg, IN.
Again, you do not need to be a member of a REIA to qualify for a hard money or private money loan, but it is definitely valuable for business doing and your development as a real estate professional, no matter how experienced you are.
