Brookside home values rise again!  That is what I have to report today, after checking the September 2013 single family home sales for our zip code of 64113.  Here are the details:

In September 2013,  26 homes sold.  Average list price was $400,412 and average sales price was $387,771.  Average days on market was 68.

In September 2012, 27  homes sold at an average price of $299,585  and 80 days on the market.

You see a huge jump in the average sales price – almost $100,000.  Keep in mind that we have a wide spread of home prices in 64113–when the higher priced homes sell, the average prices jump.  Last month, seven homes sold for over $500,000.

Now let’s compare to year-to-date figures:

From Jan-Sept 2013, 246  homes have sold  at an average price of $359,384 and 86 days on market.

From Jan-Sept  2012, 227  homes sold at an average price of $318,735 and 106 days on market.

So far this year, average sales prices are up 12.75% over last year!

As of this writing, there are 87 homes for sale in the Brookside zip code of 64113 with an average list price of $647,137 and 123 days on market.  Thirty four homes are priced over $500K, and eleven of those are priced at $1million and up, thus the high average list price.
