Waldo continues to be a hot spot for homebuyers this year.  As prices keep climbing in the 64113 zip code to the north, those who want to buy on a more modest budget look south to 64114.  Those first two sentences exactly what I wrote for the March 2017 stats report.  It’s a trend!!!  These figures are for Waldo single family home sales, using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th:

The highest price sale in Waldo last month was $468,500 and the lowest was $54,000. Note the sales price was higher than list price–because 32 of the homes that closed were at or over the asking price.
