Template Instructions

How to Create Social Posts for a New Blog

  1. Copy this file · Duplicate social-posts-template.astro to social-posts-<your-slug>.astro
  2. Update the variables · Change blogTitle, blogSlug, blogUrl, and publishedDate
  3. Write the social copy · Fill in facebookSummary, facebookCallout, instagramCaption, linkedinBody, and linkedinBullets
  4. Link it up · Add a link to your new page in the admin section of blog.astro, and link the kit from its blog post
  5. Publish · Deploy the site. The page renders all three posts ready to copy, paste, and publish

Required elements in every kit (the SocialPostKit component provides the fixed parts automatically):

  • Facebook: 3-5 conversational sentences summarizing key takeaways, then the blog URL on its own line (so Facebook auto-generates the preview card), plus Susan's phone 317-777-9146 and booking link https://bit.ly/Schedule_A_Chat
  • Instagram: punchy caption of 2-3 sentences that tells followers the full post is linked in bio, followed by the fixed hashtags #HamiltonCounty #FishersIN #CarmelIN #NoblesvilleIN #WestfieldIN #IndianaRealEstate #55Plus #Downsizing #SusanRobertsRealtor #eXpRealty, plus the reminder to update Susan's bio link to the new post
  • LinkedIn: professional and authoritative body of 4-6 sentences with key insights, pasted blog URL (auto preview card), credentials (25+ years experience, SRES, CREN), and contact info (317-777-9146, booking link)
  • Notification: a section telling Susan the three posts are ready for her to copy, paste, and publish

Below is a working example using the "July 2026 Housing Market Update" blog post. The same format applies to any new article.

Mortgage rates are climbing into the 6.8% range, the Fed is holding steady at its July 28-29 meeting, and Indiana just posted its strongest first-half home sales since 2022. If you have been wondering whether to buy or sell this summer, the data is worth a look. Hamilton County's median home price hit a new record at $500K+, but inventory is up 13% year-over-year, giving buyers more choices than they have had in years. I broke down the numbers for every city in our area — Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville, and Whitestown — plus what the Fed's next move could mean for fall buyers and sellers.

The big takeaway: if you are rate-sensitive, the fall window might offer more negotiating room. Sellers who price realistically right now are still getting multiple offers on well-presented homes under $600K. Read the full update below with city-by-city breakdowns.

July 2026 is shaping up as the most interesting market we have seen in Hamilton County since the post-pandemic surge. Here is what the data says: Indiana recorded nearly 39,000 home sales in the first half of 2026, the strongest start since 2022. In Hamilton County, median prices rose to a record $500K+ while active listings climbed 13% year-over-year. Days on market across Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville, and Whitestown are beginning to stretch — giving buyers the most leverage they have had in three years.

The wild card remains the Federal Reserve. With the FOMC meeting on July 28-29, markets are watching for signals on a potential September rate cut. If rates ease even modestly, I expect a strong fall market as sidelined buyers re-enter. Sellers who price their homes competitively in the current environment are still seeing strong showings and solid offers, especially on move-in-ready properties under $600K.

With 25+ years of experience in this market and specialized credentials in senior relocation (SRES) and negotiation (CREN), I help my clients interpret these trends and make confident decisions. The market is shifting, but that shift creates opportunity for those who understand it.

  • Indiana H1 2026 home sales: ~39,000 — strongest since 2022
  • Hamilton County median price: $500K+ — new record
  • Active listings up 13% year-over-year — improved buyer choice
  • FOMC meeting July 28-29 — potential rate signal for fall
  • Best buying opportunity in three years for prepared buyers
