Sellers in Avon, Indiana faced slightly more competition in May, as total listings rose 2.3-percent versus the previous month’s total of 341.

In terms of the overall state of the Avon market, it is this latter statistic that is the most meaningful, since it is more reflective of progress. Another interesting stat: Of the 349 homes listed for sale in Avon, 78 were…
