What will the spring home buying season be like in 2011?  Hard to say…we don’t have the $8000 tax credit like last year.  It’s true that more homes sell in the spring and summer months; it will be interesting to compare  monthly stas in 2010 with 2011 sales in the fall.

For now, here are some home sales statistics for the Brookside area, broken down into two of the larger subdivisions and zip 64113 as a whole.

Armour Hills

Two homes sold in Februrary, one was a short sale and the other needed a complete redo.  Currently there are seven homes under contract, and 27 for sale–average list price $241,656.

Rockhill Gardens

No sales in February, but currently there are three homes under contract.  There are eight homes for sale, average price $188,756.

64113

Eleven homes sold in zip 64113 in Febrary, with an average sales price of $322,132.  There are 25 under contract.  Active listings number 144 with an average list price of $525,263.  The higher average price results from 13 homes for sale over $1million.
